I found a website for a company called Fast-Teks who focus on computer repair, training, recovery and support. It’s an interesting model that is built around having technicians all around the country who had the tools and ability to support individuals and small businesses. They offer a range of services including:
- Troubleshooting
- Virus, Worm, Spyware Removal
- DSL and Cable Modem Setup
- Wireless Networking
- Data Back-Up & Recovery
- QuickBooks Experts
- Software Training
- Web Development
- Virtual Support
It’s worth keeping in mind if you need help with your IT and are looking for local support.
It’s also a model that would translate well to the UK market I think. I wonder if they offer their franchise opportunities on a global basis.
Seems like a great idea to do business/provide services that more and more people need because thins are getting so complex that only experts can really master them.
Thanks for the info. I have been fortunate enough to not need things like “recovery” but know many people who have! I know it can happen.
