Computer Maintenance - Can You Afford To Offer A Fixed Price?
Computer maintenance contracts are one area of your business where you may want to consider using a price-fixed model. Time and materials pricing is almost always going to be better for you, but many clients respond well to fixed price computer maintenance contracts.
