There is one more week of August left. So much has been going on already (and don’t forget the holiday weekend coming up!) we couldn’t wait for this month’s recap.

That’s right, school is back in full swing! We love the clever teachers and school administrators who keep students (of all ages) engaged. It is the surest way to encourage retention and curiosity. In that spirit, TechRestore has programs and specials for schools, districts and individuals alike.

Our Back To School special runs just one more week (August 31). You can take advantage, even if you’re not a student (we’re all students of life, right?). Our full diagnostics service is a great value at $59.99 every day (AND we apply that amount toward approved repairs). If you don’t need it now, keep it in mind for the future.

Also in August, we started a new tradition: First Responder’s Shout Out Day! Every first of the month, we’ll take a moment to appreciate all First Responders and Military personnel past and present. We started with Louisville Metro Police Department, our local heroes with a great sense of humor. Their FaceBook page is h-i-l-a-r-i-o-u-s.  Remember that all First Responders and active or former Military can take 10% off our services, accessories and Certified Refurbished devices every day. We do this not only because some of our TechRestore team have served, but as a reminder to appreciate those whose jobs we sometimes take for granted.

August also marked a birthday, a big milestone and a bittersweet memory for Apple.

• August 11th was Apple co-founder Steve “Woz” Wozniak’s 68th birthday. Although he is not involved with Apple any longer, he continues to innovate and inspire the tech industry.
• The 24th marked seven years since Steve Jobs left his position as the charismatic, visionary face of Apple. It was never an official statement, but pretty much everyone knew his time with us was coming to an end. Just two months prior, he proposed Apple Park to the Cupertino City Council.
• The same day Jobs left Apple, Tim Cook was appointed CEO. It was not necessarily well received at the time, but there’s no doubt that Tim was the right choice. He has seen the futuristic campus built and opened, spearheaded initiatives to reduce the environmental impact of the company and led Apple to a TRILLION dollar valuation (WOW).

Speaking of money

TechRestore announced another price drop on iPad Air 2 repairs. Hey, when our price goes down, so does yours! Just a year ago we couldn’t go below $299. Now, we’re happy to offer this great service for just $224.99 with a one year functional warranty.

We also bragged a bit about our lifetime repair guarantee (Louisvilles ONLY lifetime guarantee), our simple and superior  trade-in program and our extremely Apple Certified Techs and staff.

We love what we do and we’re always looking for ways to say “THANK YOU” to our customers and friends who make it possible. Wherever there’s a need for great customer care and outstanding technical service for Apple products – hardware or software – TechRestore is there!
