Looking to Open a Cell Phone Store in Durham, NC
What You're Actually Opening in Durham
You're not opening just any cell phone store. You're opening a real Total Wireless retail location in Durham, North Carolina—backed by Prime Media Wireless, the authorized Total Wireless Master Agent and winner of the 2026 Master Agent Award – Growth Champion (Total Wireless / Verizon Value). That means you're stepping into a proven business model with Verizon's nationwide network behind you, a recognizable brand customers already trust, and the infrastructure to compete from day one.
But here's where it gets better: your Total Wireless store doesn't stop at activations. From the start, you'll layer in a repair bench for iPhone and Android devices, plus a full wall of accessories—cases, chargers, screen protectors, Bluetooth speakers. These aren't side hustles. They're high-margin revenue streams that keep customers coming back between upgrades and drive daily cash flow while your wireless business scales.
And if one store does well? Prime Media Wireless helps you open a second location. Then a third. The model is built for multi-store expansion, and Durham's growing population and diverse neighborhoods make it an ideal market to build a portfolio of locations over time.

Prime Media Wireless doesn't just hand you a brand and walk away. You get hands-on support through every phase—from site selection and build-out to your grand opening and beyond. Here's what's included:
- US-based support team available when you need answers, not voicemail
- Total Wireless storefront signage and branding so customers know exactly who you are
- Point-of-sale system and backend tools to manage inventory, activations, repairs, and sales
- Wholesale device pricing that lets you compete on margin, not just volume
- Staff training programs covering sales, customer service, repair basics, and compliance
- Co-op marketing support to drive foot traffic from day one
