Welcome to Bristol and Bath Home Computers Blog
Thank you for visiting our blog
Bristol and Bath Home Computers is the reincarnation of Bristol Clone Centre, Bristol Clone Centre was set up in 1992 and supplied a personal build service of personal computers to home and business, the price of personal computers dropped in price drastically and in the year 2000 I started Marked For Life Limited selling security products and pest control products through our internet sites.
The security and pest control business experienced huge growth and demand was ever increasing and Marked For Life Limited went from strength to strength, because of this reason Bristol Clone Centre became a bit neglected and suffered because of a lack of investment in time and money, the increase of competition on the market and relative expense involved for the amount of profit gained made it take a back seat and I stopped trading in 2001.
Throughout the time I was building Bristol Clone Centre I was fully employed as a Computer Server Engineer, My duty for much of the time was the main server engineer based in Bristol for Specialist Computer Centres , my responsibility was to repair the most expensive and business critical computers for some of the companies top customers, Companies such as Zurich, Alliance and Leicester, Next as well as many others.
As Marked For Life Limited Grew, it involved a larger degree of work to maintain and keep track with customers orders, because the time taken was mainly process, packing and despatch the website had to take a back seat, this and the inability to find suitable staff to help the amount of orders declined, I would then start to concentrate on the website and generate more business then the orders were neglected and customers suffered by reduced customer service, realising that I was in a vicious circle I decided to sell Marked For Life Limited and concentrate on building websites and supplying web hosting through Rentablog , Renbtabiz and Web Traffic Sponge , I had proved my ability to get web traffic and used this as a lever to gain more business.
My web business involves very little work because I have affiliates generating business and some of them actually do the work involved in building the websites, I now have some spare time on my hands, I have started Bristol and Bath Home Computers so I can return to my real love of repairing computers.
