Overview
Yakety Yak Wireless is one of the fastest-growing wireless superstore
franchises in the nation. Our founders Jared
Turner and Jimmy Kindred were two college buddies who had
the entrepreneurial spirit and business know-how to make
their dream come true. They opened their first location in
Mesa, Ariz., in the summer of 1999 and did whatever it took
to gain customers’ loyalty. The founders spent untold hours
passing out fliers, talking with neighboring businesses, and
working with the community at local events. After being
approached repeatedly by family and friends wanting to open
their own wireless stores, Jared and Jimmy shared their
business model and began to sell stores with the Yakety Yak
name. Today, Jared and Jimmy continue to lead Yakety Yak
Wireless Inc. toward an exciting and promising future.

A one stop shopping experience is what we provide our consumers. Rather than pushing customers to a single product-as exclusive carrier retailers do-we offer customers the benefit of choosing the wireless service that best fits their needs. We are the wireless superstore offering several options in one location.
Yakety Yak offers a unique business model with all the advantages of a well established company, but without the enormous fees that most franchises charge. With the Yakety Yak model, you do not pay the royalties required in most franchise arrangements - often from 6% to 14% of your gross sales, regardless of whether or not you are making a profit at the end of the month.
Yakety Yak has created a structure, where you do not have to pay any royalties. That means more money in your pocket at the end of the month! It is no wonder that we are on our way to becoming the largest independently-owned chain of wireless stores in the nation.
