Why a PC PAL franchise?

Growing industry

In today’s uncertain climate, businesses and households are more reluctant to buy new computers due to cash restraints and so are opting for the cheaper option of getting them fixed instead. Computer repair is therefore a fast growing market offering an abundance of opportunities for PC PAL franchisees.

Gap in the market

As the need for computer repair services grows, so does the demand for reliable and experienced computer repair firms. There is however a shortage of computer repair firms in the UK providing a reliable and quality service using qualified engineers. Customers are looking for a company that is local and offers professionalism, knowledge and experience whilst offering at the same time, big company reassurance. PC PAL can offer them the best of both worlds – a local business with national presence and support.

Repeat business

Computers can need servicing for a number of reasons - software updates, lost data, new technology, virus protection – and so a PC PAL franchisee may be required to service the same computer on several occasions. By offering a reliable, affordable and friendly service the first time, PC PAL franchisees can enjoy repeat business and also referrals from the satisfied customer.

Low overheads offer competitive advantage

PC PAL is a home-based franchise and so no office or retail premises are needed. There is also little stock to carry so the overall overheads are substantially lower. This saving can be passed on to the customers, an advantage PC PAL franchise owners have over their larger, retail-based competitors.

PC PAL franchise opportunities

PC PAL offers two franchise opportunities; the Mobile Engineer and the Hub Manager.

Mobile engineers are hands-on franchisees who carry out the repair work by themselves.

For those looking to take a management role in the business, there is the option of the Hub Manager. This is for the ambitious mobile engineer who wants to expand over multiple territories, or for a manager who won't be fixing computers at all. Instead of doing the work by themselves, they recruit computer engineers to carry out the work for them, so that they can focus on building and managing their larger area.
