Update: 3/21

Hi, I was just updating to tell you how I've been doing. It's been a week since I last posted, and although there has yet to be any movement money wise, I have been extremely busy. I have taken the last week to change my approach to advertising. I have put fliers around my house, in people's mailboxes, in the local Starbucks etc. I hoped that maybe this would help because, as I go to Starbucks myself quite frequently, there is a number of fliers advertising a variety of services. My only hope is that maybe over spring break that people will call my house and ask for my services. Although I like having the support of my family and their friends with asking for my services, my goal is to offer my services to the greater North Shore community.

Update: 3/12

My business has been doing well so far. I have had four clients, but they have all been from my father's business. I have given each a consultation lesson for an hour, and sent out emails for each of them. I did put out an advertisement for my company, however no one has yet to respond and ask for assistance. I may need to take more steps in order to get customers. My mother has had friends ask for assistance, as well as my extended family. I gained 71.00 dollars, and my only loss was the money i spent on advertisements. I found a flash drive around the house, so i did not have to pay for a new one. My business is really convenient because i don't have to leave the house. I pick up computers and drop them off within 48 hours.  My goal for the next update is to have more customers outside of my father's company and my mom's friends. I know that that's a good starting point, but I wish to expand to a greater loyalty group.
