I love small businesses and run a couple of my own. This is a post about a local small business that recently started in Fargo by a friend of mine.

Ruben Lozoya started Speedy PC, a Fargo/Moorhead computer repair company. Ruben and I used to work for SEI The Devil about 4 years ago. Both of us used our past job as a stepping stone to do better and bigger things. I have no doubt Ruben’s business will be a hit.

Computer repairing goes to my core. I started in computer repair myself about 10 years ago and still love tweaking my machines when necessary. Now I can bring all of the big or little computer problems to a friend (within walking distance of my place) and support the non-Geek Squad businesses.

Ruben opened up his shop in the retail space at a grocery store, and I couldn’t imagine a better place. Granted North Dakota didn’t go through the big real estate boom and bust like the rest of the country, we still have our fair share of empty retail space. I’ve noticed a lot of buildings that went up two years ago on new land and have yet to fill the space.

Picking a high-traffic location to set up shop is always an awesome idea. Ruben staked his claim inside a grocery store and is in front of thousands of people a week all waiting in line with nothing better to do than stare at his shop and sign. Talk about an awesome form of branding and advertisement for a service most people need or could use just about any time of year. I have no doubt 6 months from now a frequent shopper will have a computer problem and will remember where to find just that service.

If you are in the Fargo/Moorhead area and are in need of PC repairing, I highly recommend SpeedyPC.

I encourage you to check out his site fmpcrepair.com and keep him in mind for your next pc repair needs. Speedy Repair also has a Facebook Page that makes asking questions super easy.

Keep up the good work and best of luck, Ruben!
