As a Simple Mobile retailer (or as an entrepreneur who is going to become one), success depends not only on enrolling customers but also on optimizing operations, maximizing per-customer revenue, and fostering customer loyalty.
That’s not enough; to increase your profits, you should know the top tips from industry professionals. Here are five tips to maximize profit in your Simple Mobile store, whether you are just starting or already running one through AntGen.
1. Focus on Upselling and Bundling
Why it matters:
Margins for simple activations can be low in the wireless resale market. However, the real profit is in add-ons, accessories, and premium plans.
How to do it well:
- Offer accessory bundles: Sell accessories (such as screen protectors, cases, charging cables, portable chargers, and SIM adapters) alongside SIMs or devices. A well-placed bundle can increase the average transaction value.
- Market plan upgrades: Train your employees (or yourself) to communicate why the more expensive plans are better (additional high-speed data, international calling, roaming abilities). Customers can start with a simple plan, but after realizing its worth, most will upgrade.
- Cross-sell prepaid services: In case you have other prepaid services, market those to your current Simple Mobile customers. AntGen’s support and multi-brand portfolio can help in this regard.
2. Optimize Inventory and Device Selection
Why it matters:
Unsold inventory occupies capital. Selecting the appropriate devices will maximize your ROI.
How to do it well:
- Stock devices that are compatible with the network of Simple Mobile: Make sure the phones or devices you offer are compatible with the Simple Mobile network (VoLTE, LTE, 5G).
- Maintain a balanced mix: Stock a mix of premium, mid-range, and affordable devices. This will make you able to serve a variety of customer segments.
- Sell previous inventory: A special discount or promotion can help you clear out older models and create space to accommodate the latest devices.
- Arrange coordination with AntGen in terms of planning support: As AntGen is a master agent, you can receive advice on which devices are expected to sell well and at what time to place large orders.
3. Leverage Local Marketing and Digital Presence
Why it matters:
Many customers choose the nearest retailer. If they don’t see you, they won’t find you.
How to do it well:
- Local search and directories: Have your store listed on Google Maps, local directories, and “Simple Mobile retailer near me” search results. In business descriptions, use terms such as "Simple Mobile Store" or "Simple Mobile Authorized Retailer," etc.
- Social media/local advertising: Run Facebook, Instagram, or Google Local ads in your ZIP codes with offers (“Up to 15 GB extra data,” Switch to Simple Mobile here”) using the keyword Simple Mobile Store.
- Promotions, events, and sign-ups: Host launch promos, referral discounts, “switch and get extra data” offers. Encourage word-of-mouth from satisfied customers.
- Take advantage of content marketing: Post beneficial blog posts (on your site or a local blog) about 'Why Choose Simple Mobile' or 'Switching to Simple Mobile Made Easy.' That helps drive organic traffic and establishes you as a trusted local contact for the brand.
4. Provide Excellent Customer Experience & After‑Sales Support
Why it matters:
Satisfied clients are repeat clients. It is more expensive to acquire a new customer than to retain a current one.
How to do it well:
- Train employees on activation and troubleshooting: You will receive fewer returns and complaints when employees are confident in the installation of SIMs, port-ins, activation, or device configuration.
- Provide follow-up support: Offer brief follow-up support (e.g., within 7 days) to assist customers with any issues. This builds trust.
- Promote loyalty: Offer in-store credits, small discounts, or referral bonuses to those who come back or recommend others.
- Address returns and complaints promptly: Your Simple Mobile store’s reputation depends on how efficiently you handle customer issues. Fast resolution strengthens trust.
