Three years ago, Karim Hossain earned à§³18,000 per month as a data entry operator at a garments supplier in Narsingdi. He woke at 6am, commuted 90 minutes, spent 10 hours at a desk, came home exhausted. He had a skill nobody around him had: he could fix any phone.
His colleagues came to him. His neighbors came to him. His cousins came to him. He fixed phones on weekends for ৳500–৳1,500 each and thought: why am I giving my best hours to someone else's business?
The Decision
In January 2024, Karim quit his job. His family thought he was making a mistake. His wife was nervous. He had à§³1,10,000 saved. He rented a 120 sq ft corner shop in Mirpur-10, stocked basic parts, bought a tool kit, and downloaded RepairCoreX on the free plan.
"The first day I made à§³3,200," he says. "That was more than I earned in two full days at my old job."
How RepairCoreX Changed His Business
For the first three months, Karim ran on the free plan — job tickets, customer records, revenue tracking. He saw his numbers clearly for the first time.
"I did à§³1,87,000 in my third month and did not even know it until I ran the report. I thought I was doing okay. I was doing amazing."
By month six, Karim moved to a larger shop in Mirpur-1 and hired his first technician. RepairCoreX tracked both of their jobs, flagged inventory shortages, and sent customers automatic status updates.
Customers stopped calling to ask "is my phone ready?" — the system handled it. That alone gave Karim two hours back every day.
The Numbers
The Life He Has Now
Karim drives his own car. His children are in a private school. His parents, who once worried about their son leaving a "stable job," now bring neighbors to visit his shops and say proudly: "Amaar chele business kore."
"RepairCoreX did not make me successful," he says carefully. "But it was the system that let me run a business instead of just fixing phones."
Your Turn
Karim's story is not exceptional — it is repeatable. Across Bangladesh, in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Bogura, repair entrepreneurs are building real wealth by combining technical skill with the right tools.
The free plan is waiting. The market is ready. What are you waiting for?
