However I can google and most fixes seem to be found there lol...but then why would someone pay when they could just google it themselves?
I also wouldn't know how to go about being my own business, who you have to tell, how to do tax and presumably would need insurance in case I bricked someones PC. I'd rather just be told what to do and let someone else with that kind of thing lol. Also, I guess I'm not allowed to run a business from a rented place, but does that still count when you're travelling for the work?
Because people don't know how to google stuff/perform the repairs. It's like saying why don't people perform their own oil change when oil is available in the shops.
If it's a temp thing don't worry about setting stuff up for now. Think about if it you decide to continue it on for a longer period of time i.e after a few months
You'll never brick a PC. Worked on so many computers over the years (mine and ones I built for friends) and never have they bricked or gotten to a state where you can't save them. the only issues have been from defective hardware but thats when buildings new ones not fiddling with working ones
That whole no business from a rented place just means no filling the place with stuff and having people coming and going like a shop etc.
Could also make extra money selling "upgrades" such as more ram or a larger hard drive
