Case Studies

"Last year I got a turnover of £120,000 and in two and a half years I'm aiming to double my business"

While running my Architect Photography business the emergence of digital photography took place, which meant I had to keep my technology up-to-date and as a result I became a Hardsoft Computers customer. I was impressed with the company and saw the demand for the service it provides, so when the opportunity to open the pilot franchise arose I decided to give it a go and launched in August 2007. The training covered all aspects of running a Hardsoft Computers franchise and I have had ongoing training and constant support.

The business concept of Hardsoft Computers is excellent. The technology industry is ever changing - I lease companies up-to-date IT without them having to pay out vast amounts of money purchasing new systems. I also provide IT support, which many other companies that lease technology don't do. Furthermore, because of the flexible lease package companies can update their IT by re-signing their contracts.

Running a Hardsoft Computers franchise provides me with a lot of flexibility and I'm able to continue operating my photography business at the same time. Due to the physical nature of my photography work I won't be able to continue with it in the long-term so I will be looking to spend more time on building up my Hardsoft Computers business. Last year I got a turnover of £120,000 and in two and a half years I'm aiming to double my business.
