The computer repair industry has little competition so we expect to
be the most well known and successful company in the area. We
expect to be successful by fulfilling the following points.
While there are only a few computer technology businesses in the
area they are very competitive. As long as we remain reliable and
advertise well we will be extremely successful due to the need of
computer repairs.
There will be plenty of new customers in the area due to city people
coming in for summer months and weekends.
There are very few small businesses in the area that can compete
with Techno Pros affordable prices, reliable service, and
convenience. This will make us extremely successful because we will
always be the first option for customers with computer problems.
The computer business is an extremely popular business, and with
technological advances every day people will always need help
figuring out how to work and use their newest technological need s.
By using a very simple marketing approach Techno Pros will be very
successful in the computer industry.
Market Analysis Summary
Technology Pros will have an intently focused market
strategy
 1. The largest markets for Technology Pros are the
Home Office and Small Businesses. These markets have
a need for quick temporary aid that is billed at an hourly
rate. There is some business to be had, however, in the
specific contracts.
 2. There are a number of competitors in the local area,
but none are as specific as Techno Pros in their chosen
market. This will allow us to establish a foothold in our
target market, and expand.
 3. Finally, there is the growth trend of this market,
estimated to be around 9 to 10 percent growth annually
for the next decade or so.

Years
At Technology Pros, we have very few expenses. Our
expenses include a car, legal fees and a small amount of
tools and spare parts. All of these expenses after taxes
add up to approximately $34,290. Therefore, within the
first year or two we should have covered our initial
investment and start to make a large profit.
Milestones
May 2009 – Obtain loan and purchase
company car
 May 2009 – Purchase necessary
equipment and inventory
 May 2009 – Prepare necessary databases
and office
 June 2009 – Open business

Long Term Plan
In the future, we will look to expand
slightly. We do not wish to expand in the
way of adding another office or business
center, but possibly by adding more
technicians to our team. We would also
have to purchase another company car,
which would cost another $26,000.
