How to Become an SMS Reseller

1. Acquire capital to buy the SMSs in bulk. The cost varies depending on where you are located and your service provider. For example, if you buy 50,000 to 99,999 SMSs from Yakoon, it charges you $0.047 per unit. The more you buy, the cheaper the price per unit. Ensure you look around for other providers. The Internet is a great tool where you can get other providers and compare prices. Some providers have a minimum purchase requirement.
2. Acquire a website for your business. This will not only help you advertise your services but you can also keep track of how your business is doing. Customers can have an account where they can recharge their SMSs and keep track of their balances. It's is much more convenient and makes your business easier to manage from the comfort of your home. You can also get extra income by providing advertising services to other companies. Some providers also provide you with a fully hosted website once you purchase SMSs from them.
3. Purchase the bulk SMSs. Once you have the capital and you identify the provider who you would like to be your supplier, you can then purchase the SMSs and start selling.
4. Advertise your business to get clients. You can do this on social networks, such as Facebook, MySpace and Twitter. Advertising does need to be expensive. You can also approach businesses and give them a presentation on how they can use SMSs in their businesses. You can provide promotional services to attract people to your business.
