First, let me introduce myself since I know I haven't posted anything in here but I kinda want to start posting more. My name is Alex, me and my brother are going to start a small little computer business. Our main focus would be computer repairs but we also want to provide different kind of services for people. For example: I'm decent at creating wedding,birthdays, etc invitations. I can do flyers etc. So I will be able to do that part of the job inside that small business with him. I was thinking to also install security cameras for clients and many other services that I am good at. Also selling computer components etc. So.. My questions would be..  will it be successful ? We are starting this in a garage and possibly expanding it to an actual shop and maybe in the future multiple shops around my area. Any thoughts? Ideas? on this? Thanks !!

This depends on how relevant computer services are in your area. If you have a lot of little computer shops around, you may have to be a little more competitive than if you were competing with one other shop that charges three times too much. I wish you luck.

Thank you @jamiec1130 for your quick reply. 

 

I have not seen any actually around my area, which is why I started one because I think that it will bring many customers in need of the service.

No problem. I wish you luck as you start your business. Maybe you will make an impression on your community as the go-to person for computer troubleshooting and help.
