So I found a new path that has opened up to me after fixing up a couple of computers my neighbors had issues with, and by fixing up, I mean tuning it (Deleting bloatware, checking their hardware for abnormalities, etc.), and it made me realize something... I could make a freelance business out of this.
But here's the problem... I'm mostly unfamiliar with advertising laws Georgia has. My initial idea was to print out fliers advertising my services (Basically $50 to look at someone's computer, plus $10 for each additional service, being tune ups, data backup/recovery, etc.) and stick them at neighbor's doors, or public grocery store lots on people's cars, all that good stuff.
Would it be illegal to do this? I'm rather cautious when it comes to doing this and that, since I'd rather not have the law knocking on my door due to a careless mistake I didn't know about. I'm hoping to get some input on the pros here. I can build a computer from scratch with no problem, and I can diagnose computer issues without a problem either, so I have no doubts in my abilities. I just have doubts on how to effectively advertise as a freelancer.
