When something goes wrong or breaks, a common refrain is “Call the Guy.” This is the person who’s an expert in his craft and whom homeowners and business owners trust to get the job done and done right.
When it comes to technology, New Jersey native Giovanni Atanasio is the guy. With over 30 years of experience in the field, and after working for prestigious corporations like Goldman Sachs and Liz Claiborne, he founded MyPCGuy, LLC in 2017.
“I'm a Microsoft Cloud service provider, Dell certified and can manage all types of technology,” he says. “I personally go to people’s homes and improve their internet reception, pick up laptops with cracked screens, fix them and drop them back off, and do anything else needed. I provide white glove service.”
Gio also has corporate clients who pay a monthly fee for him to maintain their networks, do backups, set up websites and professional email systems, handle cybersecurity and build networks and servers from the ground up.
“I manage and monitor clients’ networks 24/7 and at the end of the month they get a document showing all the work I've done.”
One small business client whose computer died was told by another tech person that her data was lost. “I couldn’t save the computer, but I was able to extract all the data,” says Gio. “I was even able to provide her with another laptop, migrate the data and get her up and running quickly.”
Gio believes in providing the best service with honesty and integrity and at very fair prices. “I will never sell you something that you don't need. My father taught us if we wanted to be successful in life, we always had to show customers the value of our work.”
Word of mouth is the backbone of MyPCGuy. “People trust me and call me again and again,” he says. “Corporations who provide technology services only look at numbers, but I want a lifetime relationship with my clients.”
He services the entire state and will go even further for bigger jobs. He’s actually traveling to Nantucket to assist a new client.
Gio’s future goal, as his business grows and he’s able to hire more people, is to give back to those who make his company successful. “When the company does well, I want my employees to do well,” he says. “This means giving out bonuses and maybe having a raffle where people can win trips. I want to give people the ability to enjoy their lives and spend time with their families, not just work.”
Gio loves helping others and doesn’t have much downtime, but when he does, he loves spending time with his family. He and his wife, Lucy, recently celebrated their 19th anniversary. They have two daughters, 17-year-old Gabriella and 14-year-old Francesca. “We also have a little Yorkie dog named Rocky,” he says. “He's the only other male in the house.”
