Wireless Toyz vs Air Advantage Franchise Comparison

Founded in 1998, Wireless Toyz has become the most unique concept in the retail wireless industry. Unlike other retailers that carry only one or 2 carriers, Wireless Toyz decided to design and market a different kind of wireless store that would be dedicated to offering customers almost every cellular and satellite provider in one location. Customers love our one stop shopping locations as they're able to find the best provider to fit their personal and business needs. We've negotiated a non-exclusive contract with Nextel, Sprint, AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, Dish Network, and Direct T.V. We also offer regional carriers such as Alltel, Einstein PCS, Cellular One, AirTel and 3 Rivers. Our concept has propelled Wireless Toyz to the front as one of the largest non-exclusive wireless retailers in the country. After opening our first location in 1998, less than twelve months later, Wireless Toyz had opened multiple locations throughout Michigan. In September 2001 Wireless Toyz began franchising to entrepreneurs who wanted to own their own store. By July 2003 Wireless Toyz began offering Master Franchise programs to companies who wanted to dominate a particular market.Wireless Toyz continues to develop a very unique and innovative structure for marketing cell phones and satellite TV. In the past, cellular phones could only be purchased from single Wireless Toyz stores or large chain stores.

Air Advantage is a wireless Internet service provider (WISP) who began providing broadband wireless service in 2002. Our network began with 5 tower antennas serving a potential market of about 2,000 people. During its initial stages of growth, Air Advantage received two grants from the USDA's Rural Utility Service (RUS) to provide Internet service in two small un-served markets.

A relationship was built with the USDA and Air Advantage secured a loan through the USDA's low-interest Broadband Loan program to provide broadband service to parts of rural Michigan. These grants and loans have helped Air Advantage grow into one of the Nation's leading license-free wireless broadband providers.

Air Advantage is making their system of broadband delivery available to like minded investors and entrepreneurs for the purpose of bridging the digital divide that exists in rural America.
