Ahmed Khattak, being a foreign student thought about the outrageous costs of phones and thought about long distance charges every time he would call home. This desire for change spawned his idea for GSM Nation. This alternate phone company appeals to the people who travel out of country frequently and would prefer to pay-as-you-go instead of fixed rates and additional long distance charges. Ahmed’s new ideas about changing the phone companies started out small like any emerging business but this new idea of cheaper phone plans could severely threaten the already established phone giants. These companies rely on their cheap initial offers of very expensive phones but are making enormous monthly profits off each cellphone around the world. Ahmed’s initial partners were paying ridiculously high rates for their phones plans, over a thousand dollars a month but after switching to GSM Nation, their monthly bills dropped to three hundred at the most. With young entrepreneurs challenging the the corporate giants it is possible for there to be a serious loss in sales for these businesses. Many people are realizing that they do not have to follow the easy path, because why not create an alternative when itis cheaper.
