I built my business of
radio & TV servicing not only by advertising in the NZ Herald
newspaper, but by offering my services to shops and stores selling
home electrical appliances. One such shop which I struck up a
business arrangement with was 'Easy Vision Ltd', of Blockhouse
Bay. The director was an entrepeneur called Tom Hughes, he also
owned another shop and an old bakery in Three Lamps, Ponsonby,
Auckland. 'Easy Vision', was mainly engaged in the rental business
of home appliances with the accent on televisions. I came to
an arrangement with Tom Hughes that I would prioritise the servicing
of his rental radio's and televisions and at lower charges in
return for use of the old bakery behind his shop in Ponsonby
as a workshop. And furthermore with help of one of his friends
arranged the cheap rental of a house in Grey Lynn for me and
my family not far from the workshop. |
