    Hi,
    I'm doing computer repair in my own town and I have put up posters in a few places yesterday (they were done pro etc.)

    I only got a handful of the a4 posters done as I want to adjust the marketing strategy based on customer feedback (if I get any customers that is).

    I was thinking about getting flyers done and van decals but I want to wait until I have my brand image set it stone.

    Really appreciated hearing back on this! Thanks.

    Who really needs computer repair service? - I would say small business. That's anything from accountants office to retailers to delivery companies.

    I suggest you do a A4 sheet with details of what work you will undertake, the service level you will provide (evening and Saturday callouts would be a great add-on) & your basic call-out rates.

    Then dress nicely and casually, and call into as many businesses as possible and introduce yourself and your services.

    Get sheets of small stickers printed and give a sheet to each place you visit and suggest they place a sticker on each PC they have and also suggest they let staff know you do home call outs too.


    Someone did that to me a few years ago - he still does our PC work and upgrades.
