2011 Price Changes

It’s a new year, and I’ve learned a lot after my first year in business. I’ll be rolling out a ton of new services, advertising, and other various changes throughout the next few months. The first of which, is a minor price change based on what I have learned and the current economy. Many of our changes also have to do with simplicity and ease of payment.

For example, one of our most popular services costs $65. When paying with cash, it’s more convenient to pay $60 (three $20′s) than $65 (three $20′s and a $5.) So we simply took out the $5. It’s not much, but it’s a simple change that makes things a bit easier for everyone, and any time I can make things easier for my clients, I do.

New Price Changes

• Computer Tune-up and Virus, Malware, Spyware, and Adware Removal – Originally $65, now $60. (Currently on special for $50!)
• IT Consulting – Originally $30-65/h, now $30-60/h.
• Wireless Network Setup – Originally $50, now $40.
• New Computer Setup – Originally $50, now $40.
• Technology Training – Originally $30-65/h, now $20-60/h.

What about variable services?

As you may know, we do offer a lot of “variably priced services” such as search engine optimization, marketing, web design and development, graphic design, hosting, etc. While I can’t list a set discount, I will be applying discounts to these services as well, or offering extra services for the same price, depending on the situation. Have questions about a certain variably priced service? Feel free to contact me. I’d be happy to quote you on any services you might need.

So how do we measure up now?

I have always been one of the most inexpensive IT service providers in the Salinas area, and these price changes will hopefully cement that position. In the past, I had done a comparison to other popular IT service providers, such as Geek Squad and Yippie. According to their websites, we are still the most inexpensive IT service provider in the area. Sometimes by more than 50%. It doesn’t get much better than that.
