I had achieved a milestone in my computer repair business, by servicing Dell computers. It was an excellent way to transition to self-employment because they gave me daily leads for their next business day services.
Long story short, the leads dried up in two weeks. They found an entry in my blog concerning the company that I refered to while making the decision to accept the contract. It was about how poor the company’s customer service was, and about how they took full-time union jobs from 400 people and contracted them out for little to nothing.
I did and learned more in these two weeks that ever before. I became Dell Certified. Learned customer service strategies, gained contacts in the ares, and learned how to structure my business further. It would have been nice to keep this opportunity, but I am not disappointed that it’s gone.
The program was like a mustard seed. It produced a lot of results quickly, and I believe it gave me some experience that places me well ahead of my competition.
