And revenues are rising in the sand
- Sorry, dear, I can’t!
I have things to do…
Well-known and, alas, familiar phrase, isn't it? But we are not talking about a failed romantic date. We would like to talk about business trips to the UAE. What is business Dubai? Why is it needed? Why is it important for you?
The statistics of economic growth in the United Arab Emirates are amazing, the rate of infusion of foreign investment into the country is shocking. What did a foreign businessman find here? Or vice versa - why does a wealthy Russian person for some reason prefer to receive dividends from victories of a famous football club than from investments in the “golden” sands of the Arabian Peninsula or the expansion of his business due to a new market?
There is one reason: lack of information. About the right to ownership and the acquisition system, the principles of ownership and the possibility of using real estate for commercial purposes, about partners in the UAE, the market situation and market needs for your products.
We hope to help you understand how to organize both your own and partner business in this amazing country - and then, possibly, enter a new market with your offers.
Let's be objective: is the marketing department of your company or corporation better aware of the opportunities for additional profit in this region than Nakheel, Emaar and real estate companies that have been successfully operating in the Persian Gulf market for a long time? Is real estate or business in Russia (even in Moscow) more profitable? What is the rate of return on investment, profitability of the business, guarantees from the state - as a businessman, you probably know the answers to these questions. It’s yours and the right to make a choice.
So, how do you start making money in the UAE? Of course, there is no single advice. As well as not at all in any type of business. However, some general recommendations can still be given. First you need to look around "in place", intelligence has not bothered anyone. And do not console yourself with illusions: in one short visit, your problem (investing and making money on it) is impossible to solve. I personally know a "businessman" who, in the likeness of Russia, tried to create his own "little candle factory." He was burned out, because the final products, sewing needles of the highest quality, could not overshadow the cost of Chinese sets of needles for 3 pieces for 1 dollar.
I still do not see businessmen who would propose the production and introduction of solar panels in the UAE. Although there is more than enough sun here! It would seem, why not use it? But the Russian master from the factory for the production of neon signs is standing in front of his eyes - he got rich in the UAE for specifics. Yes, we need everything to shine at night, so what's wrong? The whole city is on fire. ... So the master found his niche. I will not say that money is lying under my feet; but the fact that even the air is saturated with them is an undeniable fact. So, the number one advice is to go on reconnaissance!
Unfortunately, in the UAE there are almost no organizations specializing in market monitoring (by the way, is this your business?). Therefore, it’s still very difficult to order the selection of information on topics of interest to you, compile a database of potential partners, organize business meetings and negotiations during your visit. Although such proposals are already beginning to appear, and we will be happy to help you in these matters.
When sending an employee on a business trip or going on a trip themselves, do not forget about the business image. No, the conversation is not about suits and ties. The UAE is a hot country, and such surroundings have long been less relevant. Even very important people arrive in offices in an “informal” way and do not consider it shameful to change into a business suit in the office.
I’ll tell you about the trick of one manager from the UAE, who, during business negotiations in Moscow, made appointments for everyone in the lobby of a five-star hotel. At the appointed time, with a slight three-minute delay, he with pathos went down the front staircase to the guest for negotiations. For three years, no one even had the thought that he had booked a room at a two-star hotel, and 5 minutes before the meeting he would take a taxi to the designated five-star hotel, take cover in the toilet and then cheerfully go down " from the room. " When the fraud was revealed, the businessman lost sight of - human rumor spreads quickly ...
Therefore, do not save on image and style. In modern conditions, to check whether your employee lives or you yourself in the specified hotel is a matter of one phone call.
Advice to our future new corporate clients: take a closer look at the UAE. Dubai is an ideal venue for conferences, seminars, and international meetings. Your employee must understand what to strive for! And an interesting trip for him will become not only an indicator of his own status, but also a worthy reward for fruitful work. Send the accountant as well - he’s already tired of poring over balances and debit credit. Let us make sure live that the dry figures of the accounting “loss” have nothing to do with the realities of the sensations from a visit to the UAE and the benefits you received, whether it be team morale or contracts that are actually concluded.
Where are they, your future money? The only answer is here. Both small and large. Here, "business" can be found for both businessman and "prospector" and investor. But the most important thing is that everyone is welcome here, and this is the principle of the country.
I will not answer the question of where the most beautiful girls in the world live. I like them everywhere and always. But to the question of where it is most profitable to invest their capital - I will answer: in the UAE. Why? Yes, because here I am pleased to hear a conversation on a mobile phone:
-Sorry, dear, I can’t! I have things to do…
In the usual sense of the word.
In the Emirate.?
