I ask myself what is accounting to this current trend? Like most field of endeavours, the computer industry is evolving. From my observation, it began with computer companies such as Microsoft, manufacturing products as easy to use as possible. As a computer repair technician what is your next move?

Thinking outside the box is crucial. You must begin to offer top notch customer service. Packaging is important. How fast is your delivery? Any package you are offering that no one else offer? Are your prices reasonable? Premium delivery/service can help you to charge more money.
