2The Pitch

"Hi [Name], I know electronics margins are tough - maybe 5-10% on phones. And Amazon is always undercutting, right?

Here's what we've figured out. When someone buys a phone from you, they earn 5% back in Nuqta coins. Now when they need a case, charger, or earbuds - where do they go?

YOUR store. Because they have coins to spend. And accessories are 30-50% margin.

Plus, when their phone is 18 months old, we remind them about trade-ins. When warranty expires, we remind them. They keep coming back.

You pay 5-8% on Nuqta sales. But think about it - the accessory sales alone cover that. Want to see the numbers for your store?"

3Objection Handling

1

"Our margins are only 5-10% on phones"

That's why we charge only 5-8%. The magic is in accessories - 30-50% margin. Nuqta brings customers back for cases, chargers, repairs. That's where you make money.

2

"Amazon is cheaper, we can't compete"

Amazon can't offer same-day pickup, hands-on experience, or expert advice. Nuqta adds loyalty on top of that experience. Customers earn rewards AND get service.

3

"Customers only care about price"

For the main purchase, yes. But for accessories and services? They go where it's convenient. Nuqta makes YOUR store the convenient choice - they have coins there.

4

"We already have warranty programs"

Great! Nuqta reminds them about warranty. When it's expiring, they come back to YOU. When the phone is old, they trade in at YOUR store. We complement your programs.

5

"Big chains like Sharaf DG dominate"

They have their own closed loyalty. Nuqta is open - customers earn everywhere, spend anywhere. You get access to 500K users they're not reaching.

6

"5-8% is too much for low margin business"

Compare to Google/Instagram ads at AED 50-100 per lead. Most don't convert. We cost AED 75-150 per ACTUAL sale, plus they come back for accessories.

7

"Our customers don't use apps"

You sell smartphones! Your customers definitely use apps. And 500K people in UAE already have Nuqta. They're looking for electronics stores to earn at.

8

"We're just a small shop"

That's exactly who we help most. Big chains have their own programs. Nuqta gives small shops the same loyalty tools without the investment.

9

"What about brand restrictions?"

We work with the brands too. Samsung, Apple, Sony all understand loyalty programs. This doesn't violate any dealer agreements - it's your customer relationship.

10

"Let me think about it after Black Friday"

Black Friday is when you need Nuqta most! Sign up now, run double-coin promotions, and capture customers who'll come back for accessories and upgrades all year.

4Closing the Deal

The Accessory Close

"Think about it: Every phone sale brings them back for accessories worth AED 200+. That's 40% margin vs 5% on the phone. Nuqta makes that happen."

The Launch Close

"iPhone [latest] is coming in [X weeks]. Get set up now, run pre-order campaigns, and capture those high-value customers with Nuqta from Day 1."
