How to run your phone & computer repair business with TheCEOApp

TheCEOApp team ·

A repair shop holds other people's phones and laptops. Each one needs to be logged in, diagnosed, repaired and returned to the right person.

TheCEOApp tracks each device from received to ready.

From received to ready

Move each repair through received, diagnosis, repair and ready for pickup.

Parts and labour

Add the screen or battery used and the labour on the same bill.

Customers who pay on pickup

Record the deposit and the balance due at pickup on the customer's name.

Record every sale in seconds

Add what you sell once, for example phone screen, laptop battery and charging port, and services like screen replacement, laptop repair and software installation. Suggestions for a phone & computer repair come up as you type, so you don't start from a blank page.

Then record a sale by tapping the items, scanning a barcode or simply saying it out loud. The receipt goes to the client on WhatsApp with your logo, and part payments are kept against their name.

Keep stock the way you count it

Count stock by piece and unit. Start with the biggest unit you buy in, say how many smaller ones fit inside, set a price for each and sell in whichever unit the client wants. Stock goes down as you sell, and you're warned before you run out.

Track each job from start to finish

Every job moves through your own steps (typically 3 hours), with the deposit, costs and profit beside it:

  • Received
  • Diagnosis
  • Repair
  • Ready for pickup

Tools phone & computer repair businesses use most

  • Appointment bookings: Clients pick a day and time on your service pages; you get the request in the app with their name and phone.
  • Jobs, step by step: Track each job from deposit to handover, one step at a time, with costs and profit.
