Business Summary:
This computer center is a full service retailer of new and used computers and components. Product line ranges from custom-built and refurbished computer systems to the motherboards, memory, drives, cards, and cables needed to repair and/or upgrade existing systems. Trade-ins are welcome to offset the cost of new purchases. Revenue is a mix of retail sales and service, and has grown almost $50,000 annually each year. This business uses its excellent customer service and 24-hour turnaround time to successfully compete against the remaining “big box” computer service providers. Phone book ads are its only source of advertising; word of mouth brings in the customers due to its superior reputation. A recent re-location has been a boom to the business.

Growth/Expansion:
Introduce on-site service. The owner continues to receive requests for on-site service and customers are willing to pay a premium for on-site work. In addition, expanding the current location’s space and inventory should provide growth. The store relocated in 2010 and now has more products and floor space. Sales have increased dramatically since the relocation. |
