Legit Hustle 101: Techboys Edition

This is for all my people on the board who know a little something about computers but didn't necessarily get that higher education after high school. If you know how to install hard drives, set up wireless networks, format drives and provide an operating system then this is probably for you.

The program is called OnForce. Here you create a company, set up a provider profile, and start getting "Work Orders". This means people in your area will throw out work that they need to be done, you review and make sure you can do the work, accept the work before another provider does and you will get PAID!!! No degrees needed and I've even seen work orders as simple as "set up 10 computers" that pay as much as $300 or very high hourly rates. The site even offers free certification training meaning you can study and get certified for a vast array of IT areas for FREE!!!.

To get started go to www.onforce.com and set up a provider profile. This takes a while. There's a lot of info you have to input including professional references(you can bullshit it and put all your boys info if you don't have any). Lastly, you have to take a provider certification course. This takes about 15-20 minutes and just explains how the marketplace works. You take an exam and pass with at least %80, you are now eligible to receive work orders. I did it and got a work order my first day that paid $75 to install a USB mouse...

I was like WTF?

But act fast there are plenty of providers that want to get the jump on that bread before you do and you only have 90 seconds to review the job and except or reject it. You can also hire people to be technicians(people you know) for when you have more than one work order simultaneously or prior obligations. OnForce will even give you a 1099 tax form when you reach your first $600.

THIS SHIT IS GRAVY SON

If you don't know computers, LEARN and get that paper you feel me.

Also if you need some work done you can register as a buyer. But this is mainly for people trying to earn extra $$$.

Fuck Onforce. It starts out good at first, but the rates are going to tank. Trust me. The rates people want stuff repaired for is crazy. Most of their spend limits are my hourly rate INSHOP for residential customers.

Example: $110 spend limit

Program a new router and be sure working and configured to the
customer's standards Wall mount a camera, pointed to capture the
training area, connected and configured through the router Ensure other
employees at a different location can login to the camera and have the
ability to remote-admin Call one of the following team members when you
get onsite and upon completion to ensure they have access to camera
Whitney Smith (phone number provided later) or (phone number provided
later) Sarah Hantratty (phone number provided later) or (phone number
provided later) Wes Adamas (phone number provided later) or (phone
number provided later)

However, it's a good way to get your feet wet where you'll run into a myriad amount of problems. Plus, I can knock anyone who's doing a legit hustle that actually benefits people.

Wow, never encountered anything like that, but configuring a router takes about 10-15 minutes. I don't fuck with remote access like that so I can't speak on the camera thing. But a bill to configure a router is nice. Once you get a good rating and do the background check you get a lot more custos and you can pick and chose more freely. But remember, this is mainly for people who don't have formal education or tech shops. peeps that just know how to do stuff but are outcasts when competing against degrees. So pro and cons I've had nothing but success but then again I've only been on it for about 2 months and I have a degree so it's up in the air.

I know too many people who could use this!

Thank you.

Yeah like me. If it goes well I won't have to teach lazy black folks' children anymore.

That would be find if it were one of the commodity routers found in people's homes, but this was an old Cisco router running an old version of IOS.

Damn "to the customers specifications". Bitch you better be glad this shit work, lol. I see your point though. Hopefully I don't run into that kind of shit. It depends on are as well I'm in the suburbs of Michigan so most people got bread to throw and I use the "I-don't-go-farther-than-xx-miles" feature. No trips to the hood, no dealing with the cheap. :smh:

^^^^^^^^^^ truth
and you and me know why they posted that job - cuz theyre too fuckin cheap to pay for their own people to travel or pay cisco etc their hourly rate which is alot fuckin higher than that slave labor shit you posted. But yeah its good for experience. Better off selling pc repair yourself in a paper. You can cop the same amount of cash in fees on rudimentary bullshit.

co-sign on this. I've been an OnForce member for about that same amount of time. The rates used to be pretty good but ever since companies like Dell and Circuit City started putting jobs on here, the rates have been REAL low. If you want experience as a tech though, this is a good way to get in the game.

What OnForce is really good for is getting technicians for your projects. If you're doing a network rollout or pushing a bunch of desktops, you can pay a tech based on a flat rate. They do the grunt work, you manage the process. :yes:
 
Good shit homie. I use OnForce and although we turn down alot of jobs they are a great way to get started.

Other companies doing the same thing.

Logical Maintenance solutions based in CA
easier to get started with, less paperwork than OnForce

TechArmy. org/com/net
take a long time to call you and mostly gives out security jobs or jobs at trade shows etc.

Couple other but I can't remember right now.

I'm going to bed people!
