While the most profitable way to be a small business IT professional does not typically happen when you want to become a laptop reseller, there are ways you can add reselling to your business.  However, the most successful IT professionals working with small businesses find that the money is in building relationships with steady, high-paying clients that need your expertise in helping them build and maintain stable networks.

If you decide to become a laptop reseller or to resell any sort of products, you need to think carefully about how you will use it as part of your services. Many resellers negotiate with companies for a certain quantity of product at a certain percentage off the list price.  But you typically have to sell a LOT of laptops to make this worth your while.  And the amount you will spend on marketing will typically far exceed the profit you will get.

The truth is, margins in the electronics business unless you are a HUGE company are not great.  Your best bet if you really want to become a laptop reseller is to work on building relationships with clients and offer advice on the right products to help them round out sophisticated solutions and help procuring them.
