Outlook Tune Up
Schedule your Outlook tune up today and in 30 min or so, I will cover an 18+ point checklist for you. I’ll save it on your computer, so you have all the information and teach you how to do things like Windows updates, Office updates, Outlook tips, online backup verification and answer a few questions if you have them. This is a needed service for those that do not have an IT company managing their computers and for small & home office business computer users.
Please read this entire page before scheduling. Keep in mind that during the tune up, I will let you know of repairs needed, migration and offer a quote for another appointment. I do not troubleshoot issues during this time.

Do you need Outlook relief from a support expert?
The Outlook Expert
Microsoft Outlook is the number one used software program for businesses for a reason. It’s great, works well and usually does what you need it to do – manage your email, create rules and help manage your day to day. Not every computer repair technician knows Outlook well enough to service your calls quickly, though. This is where I step in. Since the 1990’s, I have been supporting email programs. I started off with a program called “Mulberry” and it worked great, but only managed email. Then in 2000, when I graduated college I got my first job in the corporate world supporting Lotus Notes for American Express. Lotus worked ok, but was clunky at that time. Two months later I secured a new position with Honeywell and they were a Microsoft shop and this is where my love for Outlook began.
For 13 years I have engaged in all the Outlook versions and in the past two years moved into supporting all types of email, not just Outlook, but Mac Mail, Entourage, Outlook 2011, Thunderbird, Windows live mail, you name it…I can support it. Outlook is my love, though. I know it very well and am fast at repairing and training my clients to use it most efficiently.
