In order to sell phones for a company like T-Mobile you would need to become an authorized dealer.

Getting started with T-Mobile is very simple. In fact, by clicking here you have begun your first step in becoming an authorized dealer for T-Mobile. If you have any questions or problems, you phone customer service at (877) 682-5951. You may also contact customer service associated with retailing opportunity questions at retailerprograms@t-mobile.com.

The interesting thing about being an authorized dealer for T-Mobile is that you won’t be running a franchise. Instead, T-Mobile dealers own their business and operate out of their own location. If you’ve ever dealt with a franchise, you know the feeling of having massive restrictions placed upon you. Being an independent business owner offers much, much more freedom.

T-Mobile boasts that their Premium Retailer Program offers much more than their competitors.
