Layoff Breeds Success For DC Computer Geek

(Washington, D.C. 11/30/2006) After spending several years working in Washington, D.C. as a highly successful computer professional, Guillermo Corporan never could have imagined that his career would come to a screeching halt as the victim of an unexpected layoff. But then again, he never could have imagined that this very same layoff would become the catalyst to ignite a new career as the proprietor of his own business. Now Guillermo no longer fears pink slips, because he has just opened a new company called Geeks to the Rescue —- the nation’s capital premier provider of on-site computer support. Zipping throughout the D.C. Metro area, Guillermo hand-delivers an impressive array of computer services to homes and small-to-medium-sized-business alike.

Geeks to the Rescue is the high-tech comparable of a doctor who makes house calls. Too often small businesses and residential customers lose substantial time and money while waiting for their computer problems to be fixed by a large, impersonal retail store, which often keeps the computer for a week or more and charges an arm and a leg! Refusing to tolerate this type of slow, unsatisfactory service, Geeks to the Rescue goes against the grain and brings help directly to the customer’s doorstep.

Guillermo’s love of computers began in childhood, when he solved technical problems for his friends and family. Later he volunteered at a senior-citizen center, providing support for the center’s computers and teaching seniors how to use word-processing programs like Microsoft Word.

“I love to help people and see the smiles on their faces,” Guillermo said. “With my Geeks to the Rescue Company, I know I’m making a difference in people’s lives.”

Not only have the expedient, reliable services provided by Geeks to the Rescue found success with residential clients but also with small-to-medium-sized businesses that simply cannot afford the enormous expense of hiring an IT staff. Instead of paying exorbitant salaries to keep a full-fledged IT staff on hand, these companies simply can turn to Geeks to the Rescue on those occasions in which computer services are required. Now everyone can have access to superior computer repairs, upgrades, troubleshooting, wired and wireless networking, personalized training, and custom-built PCs —-without emptying their wallets.

About Geeks to the Rescue: In addition to wanting to be the most recognizable name in on-site computer services for homes and businesses in the D.C. metro area, Geeks to the Rescue is planning on expanding to Atlanta, Boston and Philadelphia by the end of 2007.
