iEntrepreneur

The definition of an entrepreneur is quite simple:  A person willing to launch a new business and takes sole responsibility for its outcome.  Meet Brett Westover, owner of iTech, and a great example of what an entrepreneur is and does.

A couple of years ago Brett was cleaning out his truck and accidentally broke his new iPhone.  He called Apple and was told a replacement would cost $450.00.  That was money he simply did not have at the time.  So he did what self-motivated people do, he fixed the phone himself.  And at that moment, he realized there was a void in the local market for smartphone repairs and iTech SmartPhone Repair was born.

He laid a solid foundation for his new business.  He researched and then trained on how to repair virtually every type of smartphone on the market.  He established relationships with suppliers.  And then he went to work.  At first, he offered a mobile service.  You contact him, he drove to your location and performed the work.  Eventually he realized the mobile service limited the number of customers he could reach in one day.  Instead of driving, he could use that time doing more repairs.  So in October, 2011 he opened his first retail store, brilliantly located within 1/2 mile of the AT&T and Verizon stores.  Repairs usually take less than one hour.

Brett is expanding his services and products.  He offers repairs on iPod Touch products, Android products and can personalize your iPhone will custom color housings.  Not too distant plans also include iPad and laptop repairs.  All of this from a 23 year-old self-motivated businessman.  You gotta love it.

iTech SmartPhone Repair is located one block north of SR312 at 1797 Old Moultrie Road.  Brett can be contacted via email:  itechsmartphone@gmail.com or via phone at 904.806.6722.

So the next time you do something stupid to your android or iPhone, my suggestion is to save yourself a lot of headaches, time, and money, and run over to iTech for a quick and very affordable repair.
