About Wireless Industry Association
|
The Wireless Industry Association, originally the National Association of
Cellular Agents, was started in December of 1986 as a Houston grass-roots trade organization of
cellular dealers, agents and retailers by Bob Hutchinson. As the industry blossomed, it became clear that
dealers, agents and
retailers needed someone to represent their interests to carriers,
manufacturers, and the industry. It was apparent early on that the "Baby
Bell" carriers were using the same traditional monopolistic business
methods historically used, and that agents would need help in dealing with
them. Soon after its inception, the Association assisted agents by analyzing and interpreting carrier-agent contracts. Consequently the Association became a clearinghouse of information and wireless business operations unparalleled in the industry. Literally thousands of agents have called for guidance and many hundreds of contracts have been reviewed. In 1995 the Association renamed and began its pioneer involvement in the Internet and today operates the World's most popular web site dedicated to the wholesale/retail, business to business Wireless industry , wirelessindustry.com, also wirelessdealers.com. The remarkable International Wireless Dealer Market clearinghouse for wholesale cellular phone equipment transactions for over 500 million items a year involving members in 40+ countries.
