Vitiello started Rockwall iPhone Repair in his parents’ dining room after one of his friends broke her phone, and he fixed it for her. Because of such high demand, it quickly turned into a full time job, with Vitiello sometimes repairing more than 10 phones in a single day.
The inspiration for United iPhone Repair came after Vitiello’s iPhone repair business was featured on national news. “I had dozens of people calling me asking if I could help them start a business similar to mine.” Seizing the opportunity, Vitiello compiled a book detailing how to do the repairs and business’ marketing. “Before I knew it,” he says, “I was helping people start iPhone repair businesses all over the nation.” United iPhone Repair is dedicated to helping individuals with all aspects of the business, from learning the repair processes and supplying replacement parts, to advertising and bringing in customers.
Vitiello says his clients range from college students like himself, to stay-at-home moms and middle-aged working men looking to supplement their incomes. He promotes United iPhone Repair primarily online by using SEO tactics to boost his search engine rankings, and by writing free articles about the iPhone repair business for bloggers and website owners. “I write content for other websites, because they have much more traffic than mine,” says Vitiello. “More often than not, the website owner will allow me to plug my website at the end of the article, and I can draw a lot of traffic that way.”
Vitiello says, “I find that the freedom working from home gives me is the benefit I value the most.” He adds, “My greatest achievement is sharing my success with the dozens of iPhone repair businesses that are now operating because of my company.” Vitiello plans to continue to open new locations every week and wants his network of home-based repair businesses to dominate the iPhone repair industry.
