The Business of Business


I want to let you in on a little secret. Running a business isn't the easiest thing in the world to do, but it has a list of rewards that are too long to list. The really hard part is starting, taking the first step, making the plunge, etc, etc. This is the story of the idea I had for Team Revolution technology.

It started a few years ago, about three I think, when I had lost my job and didn't know what I was going to do. My wife and I would be okay financially, but that isn't the ultimate problem. The real problem was that I really don't like to be fired. It’s a testament to your skills or mentality, in my particular experience it was mentality and it was a very humbling experience. I decided then that I would like to not be fired again, so maybe I can use my skills in PC Repair to freelance and strikeout on my own. That didn't last really long. I had no mind for the business, only for the actual work. Since the jobs weren't flowing in steadily and I was quickly losing patience I decided to seek employment again. This was my first real business mistake, giving up.

For the next year, I worked for another company and after said year we decided to part ways. The thought crept back into my head that I could really get my company off the ground if I really decided to do so, I just had to apply myself. This time I went about it smartly and decide to get help. I brought on my wife, who is much better with money than I am by the way, my brother, who is the most street smart person that I have ever met and my sister who has had real business ventures in the past. So now I had my crack team assembled, me the technician, my wife on financials, my brother the promoter and my sister the adviser. From here we settle into more roles with my wife doing all of our marketing design and such. There was an internal fracture sometime around then and my brother decided to leave. This is when things got serious. We had time and energy invested but nothing to really show for it, so we decided to kick it up a notch and go from your neighborhood fix-it shop to a legitimate business and that brings us to where we are today. We have started dealing with communities’ not just businesses and normal consumers. Not a huge chunk of the world knows us yet, but I guarantee that that will change very shortly. Always be on the lookout for us to do something explosive, whether it’s a special deal that only we provide or special giveaways or free service for special cases. Keep your eyes open.....you never know.
