IT enthusiast, Tony Swenson, is to become the new local PC PAL Engineer servicing and repairing computers and laptops in your homes and businesses around the Central and Southern Bristol area.
Tony, who lives in the Bristol area, was interested in becoming self-employed and saw that becoming part of a franchise was a way of opening that avenue to him. “From the beginning commitment and professionalism was evident from both the management and other franchisees. After working in plumbing and heating sales for 26 years it was time for a change. I found PC PAL after seeing an article in a franchise magazine as well as seeing them online.” says Tony.
“My experience of fixing computers was limited but I was looking forward to the challenge of looking after my own business and learning new skills. ”
Tony went through rigorous training before launching the business and is now a qualified Microsoft Certified Professional and also has the CompTIA A+ Certification for hardware. “I didn’t know how I would cope with being in a classroom environment, but I found the training to be very interesting as well as having a sense of achievement upon passing the exams”.
"As a mobile engineer I also carry a comprehensive range of spare parts and diagnostic tools it means I can fix most problems on the spot in the customer’s home or office which reduces the inconvenience to them of having to remove the PC to another location".
PC PAL is fighting back against rogue operators who may be unqualified, uninsured or offer shoddy service. As our customers have testified, some unscrupulous firms are recommending work which does not need to be carried out, misdiagnosing faults or even installing illegal software.
Tony is looking forward to the challenge of building a successful business and providing an excellent and much-in-demand service in the local community.
