lol, I don't see it as a problem TS. With what you're describing, I agree with everyone (minus the thread hijackers) about this business.

Good luck and hope it turns out well )

Good evening TS!
kani rjd ako ma ingon.. if you start a internet cafe business with less than 50 (fifty) units kay lisud na... Kay patyon ka sa maintenance. But, I'm not saying na dili kaya. Lisud lng jud sa sugod.

I clarify lang nako bro. Based sa imong experience mas maayo gyud nga at least 50 unit?

TS I recommend a survey and a market study. Never underestimate/overestimate the potential business.
Before everything, I really suggest you do the market study. Its not worth much but pays a lot.

Also, don't ask Yes/No questions. People tend to say Yes all the time. Ask questions that engage people like:
*Where do you go when you need to use the computer?
*How much do you pay when you do?
*How often do you need to use a computer?

@kerespup

bro ask lng unta ko, licensed OS imo gi gamit sa imong units? Gipangitaan ba ka ug genuine OS pag lukat nimog business permit ug mayors permit? Im planning man gd to register my shop(coin-op) but ga ka duha2 pako kay di genuine ako uban OS. 2 lang ang orig basin unya if e register nako ma raid pa nuon ko kay e check.

I'm really not a fan of piracy so I only do genuine OS, but can you please care to share more about your experience on this?

Thanks, I'll try to see what I can do with that.

Thank you for the input. Though I'm just wondering, isn't it rather contradictory? Wouldn't maintenance be much more of a hassle when you start with more units? Taking into account location as well. 50 Units is more suited for commercial areas is it not?

TS - sa akong experiences ug sa imong g sulti nga kamo pa ang naka una, way before I have a net cafe business I started only 8 units, utang pa gani to, 50 percent downpayment, then 50 percent data ang mga units, then ang competensya sa kilid pa nako, pero mas kusog ang akong specs sa ilang units ug mas kusog ang net speed nako nla ug mas comfy ang mga tawo mo duwa. (sa karon wala na kay nag abroad man ko walay maka manage ug maintain, ako g baligya nalang, but plan to get back on track sa net cafe business puhon kung swertehon)

nag ROI ko after 1 year and a half, kay utang man nako ang units, but what if wala to nako g utang, mas dali ang ROI dba?

lucky sa imoha naa moi inyohang own place, so imohang problema ra is ang electricity ug ang net connection..(ako-a sauna kay rent pa ko, 15k pa akong rent sa place ah)

ang goal nako sauna is to give good services and good units sa customers, kay kabalo naka sa mga teens basta hinay imong units, balhin. ug dili na sila mo balik.

Yes bro. Mas maau if above 50 units ang starting nimo... Pero kung gamay ra units, lisud pag handle but not impossible... Pero patyon kas maintenance bro if below 20 units lng... Pero depende ghapon sa diskarte bro... Alot of below 20 units cafe here in cebu kay nag survive paman... i hope whatever inyo buhaton ma successful bro good luck and God bless...
