of messages we have shared with our readers about Ecuador real estate this decade.
Business and Ecuador Real Estate Ideas
Great places bring opportunity
and more joy from life. London was a great place to be in the 70s and I increased
my investments eleven times in two years by buying property there then. Naples,
Florida was a great place to be in the 90s and we increased our investment five
times in property there. Ecuador in the last decade has offered it all-low prices,
simplicity, every creature comfort. Property we bought is sky rocketing up now.
Business has been great.
So where are great places now?
Ecuador real estate and exports
are still great for small investors.
Here is a message sent to me
last week by a French delegate at our last International Business Made EZ course
in Quito.
"Ever since I came back
from Quito in March after attending your seminar-which I so thoroughly enjoyed-I
have been aware that I would like to start up a small business and in doing so
help the Ecuadorians in some tiny way.
"It has also become an obsession
that in the future I must spend part of my winters in that wonderful country!
(I think in one of my past lives I have lived there!)
"I bought a couple of sweaters
from Galeria Latina and have shown them to friends both here in France and in
the UK, and they created a lot of interest.
"As you may remember I do
not have a lot of capital so cannot buy huge amounts of stock. So this is where
I would so much value your opinion and advice. What about a mail order catalogue
or sales on the internet? There is already an English company which sells Peruvian
clothes through a catalogue and some of their sweaters sell for over £400!
I ordered a dress for my niece a couple of years ago and it took 6 months to arrive!
"I really enjoy reading
all your newsletters-long may they continue. I appreciate the fact that you are
a very busy person but if you do have a moment to put down any ideas on the subject
I would be most grateful. Do hope all is well in your world-please pass on my
best wishes to Merri. Strange things seem to be happening in France at the moment
but we are hoping for the best on Sunday! With kind regards from C."
My reply below provides a business
idea that will work in many types of small businesses. Here was my reply.
“Dear Carolyn, I am delighted
to share some thoughts. I see several ways of doing this. First I have seen the
Peruvian catalogue and you are right, they charge an arm and a leg for their products.
Ecuador is a perfect place for
small business people as their industries are composed mainly of small businesses.
Few big companies export from there because they cannot get sufficient supply.
I suggest selling from inventory.
Build slowly. If you take orders and then try to get product from Ecuador you
may be overwhelmed with customer service problems. The task of continually telling
everyone when the shipment is coming could be too much to bear. Buy as much as
you comfortably afford, sell it and buy a little more each time.
An alternative is to buy and
show samples, take orders and when you have sufficient orders (with a deposit
that should about equal your purchase price), fly over and buy....plus enjoy your
time there.
Call your service "Andean
Buyers Club" or something like that. The story is simple. There are wonderful
sweaters, coats, clothes, etc., in the Andes, but who has the time to get them
all? You will be the customer's personal buyer. Give them an E catalogue, let
them send you their order with deposit and credit card (so you can charge the
balance when you return with the goods). When you have enough orders to cover
your trip and give you a profit, run for DeGaulle! Good luck!"
