This is for current Cricket Dealers (exclusive and premier dealers).
I just received a call from the Cricket rep. in regarRAB to their launch in Chicago market by end of this year or early next year. I was told there isn't a clear territory protection given to premier or exclusive dealers against non-exclusive store opening near them. I do understand for being an exclusive or primier dealer, you get better pricing on the equipments but does that really make up for the losses of not selling other carriers' products? In another worRAB, you have to pay your expenses from selling one carrier products and if there are half dozen other non-exclusive dealers selling same products within 1 mile radius of your store, thus effecting your sales volume, will that extra $10-$15 profit per phone sale make up for those lost sales to those non-exclusive stores?
I'm currently a Verizon exclusive dealer and what keeps my business going is the territory protection and residual income. (From my understanding, Cricket does not off risiduals.)
