INTRODUCING BLUE BANANA GEEKs

The complete Technology solution for your business

As seen on.

  • Facebook Pages and Groups (Gerald Jack)
  • AVTIMES
  • Your friends and family facebook walls

For the past 9 years  we have run everything on a shoestring budget – and over time our popularity and reputation has grown beyond our capacity to deliver good services. We are ready for expansion and growth – so here we are Crowdfunding

A few things that Blue Banana Geeks can do.

We are Blue Banana Geeks – We started out with computers and helping with geek toys purchases.

Then we expanded into smart device repairs: Phones and tablets, and notebook screen repairs.

To date we’ve repaired over 300 phones and 200 tablet – in 3 years.

Then we started helping small businesses like ourselves with website setup, Facebook marketing and promotions.

We keep on growing and the demand for services keep expanding.

 

We’re Expanding

And the possibilities are endless.

So we did the sensible thing and explored our options and this is what we came up with:

We were approved for a business loan to increase our stock of smart device parts for repairs and also to purchase more specialist tools so we can meet the demand of the work coming in for our repair business.

We also plan on developing a snazzy website so that we represent our business well online and offer marketing and Facebook services to clients near and far.

We also plan to develop our network of technology specialist so we can provide a fully integrated service to our technology clients.

 

We also adopted Minions in the process as they somehow fit our brand perfectly – geeks who love bananas – so check out our perks to see what we can offer you Minion fans.

We Have Some Goals

for this campaign

 

First, we are looking for partners interested in working with us to provide technology repairs faster and cheaper – Get in touch we want to hear from you.

Second, we want to find network partners interested in being a part of our long-term success story, it’s important to us so drop us a line in the ‘Comments’ section of this campaign page we’re looking forward to hearing how we can work together.

 

Third, we want to help more people become aware of who we are and what we're about.

Finally of course we want to raise as much additional investment into our business as possible so we can implement our expansion and growth quickly and meet our customer needs.

 

Extended Network For Complete Technology Solutions

Partner, network, ‘family’

If you haven’t heard the name 'Gerald Jack' yet or worked with Blue Banana Geeks, here's why :)

We developed our business plan to be word of mouth. We posted a few ads here and there and we often received referrals from our current clients.

We took on new clients that heard about us by word of mouth and we were always kept really busy so we didn’t see the need to do more marketing.

We also didn’t want to expand too fast, but eventually our name snowballed and our reputation grew to the point where we are now known in many different countries. 

By developing and building our business in this way it has helped us to learn lots of lessons and recover quickly from our failures. Over these past few years we have become one of the longest standing technology service providers in our town and we plan to be around a lot longer.

We consider our existing partners and network of suppliers as family and that has also helped in our growth and now we want to expand out some more so we can provide the standard and quality of service further afield to our newer customers.

So we are inviting you to join our family. The real benefit of course with any family business is the family discounts, but also the support and encouragement, so get involved.

We're excited to make this move into a new direction, and most of all with everyone of you. We will post updates often to keep you informed on your personal geek services, as well as updates on special deals and prices you will only find on this page.

Much love from the Blue Banana Geeks team

Meet the team.

Experienced professionals.

Gerald Jack - Trusted Geek Advisor

Where we are now.

Your support makes our business development a reality.
