Buisness Proposal

The name of my business is "Tech Aid". My business is going to sell computers and give lessons on how to use your computer. The target audience for selling the computers is anyone. But for the lessons it is directed at people who have little or no computer experience.

I will sell multiple OS computers and when you buy one you get 5 free lessons then after that you can just come in and pay a small $10 fee and get any assistance you want. Or you can call and its a toll of $5. Or I have 24/7 online support for free.
