Are you interested in starting a bulk SMS business in Nigeria? Do you want to become a bulk SMS reseller from home and earn consistent income? Then this post is for you.

Presently there are over a thousand ways you could earn some legal cash online working from home or wherever you choose to, but bulk SMS is one of the surest and fastest way you can achieve that your dream of making consistent income online and offline.

Unlike some years back when schools, churches, banks, offices and various business organizations used to send out newsletters to their customers or parents to remind them of an event or meeting, nowadays they all use SMS for things like that.

This is due to the ease by which users can reach out to thousands of recipients with a single click as well as the relative cheapness of custom bulk SMS when compared with the SMS rates charged by telecom service providers.

Imagine you own a bulk SMS service and banks, schools, churches, offices and various organizations contact you for bulk SMS transactions, and you get a lot of money from such deals. Also, politicians are not left behind as most of them now use bulk SMS during their pre-election campaigns to highlight their manifestos to voters. All of these, and many more drive home the fact that the demand for custom bulk SMS will remain on the high side for a long time.

If you have been looking to start a very profitable business that requires little capital, then you should consider venturing into bulk SMS reselling. This post explains the steps involved in starting a bulk SMS reselling business.

Bulk SMS reselling simply entails buying custom SMS units in large quantities and selling them to customers at slightly increased rates. For instance, if you buy 10,000 units for #16,000 (at the rate of #1.6 per unit and at the rate of 1unit per SMS) and then sell to customers at the rate of #2 per unit, you will make #4,000 profits after selling all 10,000 units. You can even sell higher than that, it depends on your marketing strategy.

You don’t need any formal qualifications to become a bulk SMS reseller, and you don’t need more than a PC (or tablet), a reliable internet connection, and a little cash to get started. Once you have all these resources, then you need to follow these steps to start your own bulk SMS reselling business:

1.Without Capital

To start with no capital, follow the steps below:

i. Get a free reseller account at your SMS provider or register at http://www.smsdigits.com for your reseller account.
ii. Make a list of your target customers (i.e churches, businesses, schools, supermarkets, clubs, mosques etc).
