Question

How Much should I charge for hooking up 2 computers Wireless network Wireless printing, Its for A realty company so dont be shy

Answer 1

Well being that i have done computer work for pay the normal charge of really any company would be $40 a computer base then parts and time. Time can vary from $15hr to $30 hr. Me personally would do it just for the $80 for both computers. Those were the rates of the internet business that i had worked for.

Answer 2

I actually used to do this, worked as a tech for a few realty firms.

I'd charge slightly under whatever the pros would charge, say geeksquad at 80$+parts so you charge 65$ an hour plus parts, assuming that you are not a professional.

I mean you can't charge professional price if your not.

And do remember if your not insured, and you screw something up, the realty company can sue you.

Assuming that this is under-the-table, make sure they are aware of your skills and have them sign something so you are not liable in case you screw up.

Answer 3

Either you're a professional, or you're not. If you are, charge professional prices and do a professional job. If you're not... well, they got what they paid for.
If you are going to do IT work, make a choice, right up front. Do your job very well, make it work flawlessly and charge for perfection, or don't. The course of your career will depend on that first choice. You're either going to be the "computer guy" who does it on the cheap, or you're going to be a professional.
You bill your client for the quality of your time. Regardless of the time you take, make sure it's right before you leave. Anything over two hours, maximum, is your fault. If you're just getting started, it may take you longer. So you bill your client for the quality time, and courtesy out whatever was your fault. Working four hours and billing for two, if that's what you have to do, establishes you as a professional. It leaves them with a good feeling that, though you charge a professional hourly fee, you don't milk it, and will courtesy time not well spent.

Answer 4

you is easily not waiting to chop up the cable internet connection into 2 by using hooking up 2 cable modems. The ISP has to define a single MAC handle for it to allow web website visitors to. So the best element for you if instantaneous doesnt paintings nicely is to hook up a single modem and then take that connection to a swap (2 port or 4 port ) that splits the internet connection. as quickly as that's finished you are able to hook up 2 desktops to this swap via ethernet cables.

Answer 5

Common rate for that kind of job is $125 per hour plus parts. So figure out how long it will take and what you need to bye to set up the equipment and that should be your price.

Answer 6

Geeks Squad would charge $80.00 per/hr. Don't under price your services. Although giving a good deal once in awhile can help get repeat customers. Don't screw yourself or them. If you do it for $50.00 an hr they get a great deal and you get repeat business.
