At Wireless Dealer Magazine, our journey began in 1994 with the launch of Independent Agent Network, a pioneering membership organization committed to supporting long-distance agents. We didn’t just dip our toes in the industry; we made waves with our ﬁrst major initiative, the TOP 25 AGENT PROGRAMS—a comprehensive resource that included 25 telecom agent contracts, rates, and commissions. Previously, this essential information was custom-created by each telecom company for every agent. Thanks to IAN, for the ﬁrst time ever, agents all received the same standardized contract, eliminating the practice of paying agents diﬀerent commissions.

As the telecom industry evolved, so did we. By 1996, recognizing the growing demand for faster, more eﬃcient communication, we introduced a fax blasting program, enabling resellers to instantly connect with agents nationwide. This was an early precursor to the digital advertising strategies that now deﬁne our industry. With the decline of long-distance services and the rise of wireless technology, we rebranded as Wireless Dealer Network to reﬂect this monumental shift.

In 2002, we encountered a new challenge: some independent wireless retailers were not yet regularly using email communications. Instead of waiting for the industry to catch up, we decided to bridge the gap ourselves. We launched Wireless Dealer Magazine and published our ﬁrst print edition, marking a new era in our commitment to the wireless sector.

But we didn’t stop there. In 2008, Wireless Dealer Magazine took a signiﬁcant leap forward by partnering with CTIA Wireless to co-locate two groundbreaking expos: the Wireless Dealer Expo and the Wireless Repair Expo. These events ran consecutively for nine years, solidifying our role as the central hub for industry professionals. Today, we proudly support the All Wireless & Prepaid Expo (AWPE) as a media partner and sponsor of The Wireless Repair Show.

We have successfully bridged various industries selling products and services under the Wireless Dealer Magazine umbrella when it enriches our subscribers.

Our inﬂuence extends to used phone resale, wearables, ﬁntech, and even vape retailers who now stock wireless products. We’ve guided wireless repair stores in expanding their oﬀerings to include accessories and wireless services, taught drone repair to wireless repair shops, and led the way for repair shops to evolve into phone refurbishing and device retailing.
