Computers Break Down… And we’re here to get them running again.
Computer Doctor offers in-store or mobile services to get the world of computer users back to work as quickly as possible. Look at any skyline of office buildings or a subdivision with rows of homes. They’re packed full of computers, and often computer owners at a standstill, frustrated, looking for help.
That’s where Computer Doctor steps in with its fleet of well-marked vans. From Alaska to Hawaii, and from San Diego to Jacksonville, and now south to Mexico, new Computer Doctor stores are opening every week.
Franchisee support a key to success CEO Lonnie Helgerson founded the company in 1992 and began franchising in 1996. The founding principle: service to computer users, and support of franchisees. Director of Franchise Development Lisa Hinz says that support is a key to success:
When a new store opens, the owner or manager is joining a franchise family, with support from the corporate office in Aberdeen, S.D.
Through support from corporate, we reduce the common expenses. As a member of the team, stores increase their knowledge and get help with site selection, lease negotiations, and store construction.
Often years of experience are needed to become proficient in these areas. We have experts in the corporation to do that, a big help to less experienced business men and women. Corporate even helps franchisees with personnel matters such as who to employ what questions to ask, how to handle lease negotiations and some legal matters. And when a Computer Doctor outlet is up and running, corporate help doesn’t stop.
“Together we work to build the company’s image, and that in turn increases business and profits,” Hinz says. As the chain expands, franchisees build equity, too. “It’s like a McDonalds® of the 1950s compared to the value of a restaurant today. It’s that franchise name recognition and customers knowing what they’re going to get at any location that adds to the value.”
Training Our intensive two-week training program covers the fundamentals of opening and operating a Computer Doctor outlet. More education is provided through newsletters and our national convention, which provide useful operations, marketing and corporate updates.
More Support An on-going marketing and media relations department will write press releases and get them into the hands of media in your region, during opening days and as new services or locations are added.
