Start your own business with low investment! Perfect for a side hustle or part-time job!
I operate an iPhone repair business in Tokyo.
I previously worked for a repair specialist group with approximately 50 stores nationwide, and I am now operating independently.
Due to the limited number of Apple Stores, same-day repairs and data transfers are not readily available for iPhones and other Apple products. However, our ability to provide same-day repairs has led to increasing demand.
As a result, many iPhone repair businesses are now opening throughout Japan.
Estimated Startup Cost:Up to ¥1,000,000
Industry:Repair/Cleaning
While individual progress may vary, the main repair techniques can be acquired through approximately one week of training based on the repair manual.
Furthermore, support will be provided via phone and Skype even after the training.
The workspace is just one desk, making it ideal as a side business!
This means you can keep setup costs down and start your business with a low investment.
Initially, we purchase all necessary repair tools, so the only expenses incurred during repairs are labor and parts.
Approximately 80% of the repairs we receive are screen repairs and battery replacements, with an average repair time of 20-30 minutes (when experienced).
The cost of parts is approximately 30-40% of the repair cost, resulting in a low cost ratio and a high gross profit margin of 60-70% per repair.
Example: Repair cost ¥10,000 - Parts cost ¥3,000 = Gross profit ¥7,000
Franchise fee: 300,000 yen
Training fee: 150,000 yen
Other: 50,000 yen
Sales: ¥800,000
