Established companies in Hong Kong, Miami, or Dubai that work with official invoices. Profit margin: 15-25%. Ideal for larger volumes (10+ devices).
Wholesalers in major cities. Prices 10-15% higher, but with national warranty and fast delivery. Great for starting out.
Platforms like Alibaba and specialized electronics B2B sites. Purchase security with escrow. Ideal for testing new suppliers.
For those with business registration and experience. Buy directly from Asia or USA. Higher profit (30-40%), but requires import knowledge.
Cooperatives of resellers who buy together for better prices. Entry via referral, excellent networking.
iPhones from carriers and companies. Margin can reach 40%, but requires technical knowledge to assess device condition.
Set aside money for initial investment. Start small: with $500 you can get 1 iPhone 13 or 2 iPhone 11. Reserve 20% for emergencies and working capital.
iPhone 11, 12 and 13 have best turnover. iPhone 14 and 15 give more profit per unit. Avoid very old models (below X) as they have low demand.
Create professional profile on Instagram, WhatsApp Business and configure Converso.pro to manage customers, sales and warranties. Automate as much as possible.
Buy 1-2 units to test the supplier. Check: delivery time, product quality, after-sales support. Only increase volume after validation.
Research local competitor prices. Start with 10-15% margin to gain market. After having loyal customers, adjust to 15-20%.
Daily posts on Instagram, stories with satisfied customers, local WhatsApp groups. Invest $20-50/month in targeted ads.
| Fatal Mistake | Consequence | How to Avoid |
|---|---|---|
| Selling on credit without control | 30% default rate | Use contracts and check credit |
| Buying only by price | Defective/fake products | Test suppliers first |
| Not giving warranty | Lose customers to competition | Minimum 7 days, ideal 30 days |
| Mixing personal money | Broke in 6 months | Separate bank account |
| Not reinvesting profits | Business doesn't grow | Reinvest 70% first months |
| Ignoring after-sales | Zero referrals | WhatsApp 7 days after sale |
Not mandatory at the beginning. You can start as an individual and formalize when you reach $2,000/month. With a business license you pay less taxes and get better terms with suppliers.
iPhone 13 128GB has the best value. Fast turnover (sells in 3-5 days) and margin of $80-120. iPhone 12 is also excellent for price-conscious buyers. iPhone 15 gives more profit, but slower turnover.
Always check IMEI on Apple's website, test Face ID/Touch ID, check if it appears in iTunes, observe finish (fakes have rough edges). When in doubt, only buy from suppliers with proven reputation.
Yes! Margin can be higher (30-40%). Market seeking value is huge. Important: be transparent about condition, take detailed photos and offer minimum 30-day warranty.
Your edge is personalized service, same-day delivery, easy payment terms and better price (you have lower fixed costs). Build customer relationships via WhatsApp and be flexible.
