Best Buy's Geek Squad is failing due to insufficiently trained delivery crews being asked to perform complex technology installation and wiring tasks, leaving a market gap for skilled, independent tech installation services.

Geek Squad lacks adequate local training and relies on delivery crews without the necessary tech skills, unable to meet customer demands for complex installations like in-wall wiring.
