A background in cell phone repair

It is important to remind yourself that when it comes to any business, you must be well-versed with the ins and outs of the product or service you are trying to sell.

Choosing the right location

Carefully decide where to set up your cell phone repair training business. Locations can include everything from free standing retail store locations to a kiosk in the mall. Be aware that mall locations typically have much higher rents, but often have potential customers walking through the mall all day every day. Free standing locations will have lower rents, but will require more marketing to successfully build a customer base as people have to know where you are located.

You can also start from home and even run a mobile business out of a work van!
