As I went to rest, but expanded his business. Turkey



Hi, Habr. Today I want to talk about their successful business stories that happened to me some time ago. This story - my successful experience, the recommendation to those who work in the IT field, or maybe just an interesting article. In any case, I hope you enjoy it. So let's start.

I work a lot, and every year I try to go abroad at least 2-3 times. Probably there is no need to explain how important it is to rest from work and routine. Without it, just did. Mandatory condition of each of my holiday - a sea or ocean. A little later, explain why it is important for me to travel closer to some water. I strongly advise everyone not to forget about their holiday. Despite my recommendations in his last vacation I broke my principles, but it was the cause.

In 2014 from the very beginning to take shape for me became very, very productive. I started my next new project is directly related to IT and the start he began to bring me fruit. I can not explain in detail what it was doing. It will smell PR. Let's dwell on the fact that my projects are very closely related to online advertising, and if you say it even easier, we are helping other entrepreneurs to sell more through the Internet. A few months everything went very well, I'm a little tired of the routine and monotony. As usual, I had planned a summer vacation. Almost every year, in the summer, I go to Turkey. Warm sea, perfect weather - ideal conditions for my holiday. If before I traveled exclusively in hotels, the recent times went to an excellent villa to my friend, who, in turn, now also my partner. By the way, my friend, have long been spending a lot of time in Turkey. He's got his business related services, now also a lot of real estate. Do not think that I'm here to boast, I will often do the retreat, but they will eventually be linked to the main theme and thought.

Upon arrival, I decided to buy a mobile internet complete with wi-fi router. Previously tried to ignore the Internet and is limited only slowly wi-fi in the complex to check social networks. But this time, my work and projects required more attention. In Turkey, a great 3G internet, I used the services of an operator Turkcell (for reviews of sellers, the best choice). 15 GB (maximum packet) are 99 Turkish liras, which translated into our money ~ 1700 rubles. Seller is clearly interested in why me so much and I plan to do with the 15GB. Explained quickly and clearly - to work, but willing seller even more. I had to talk to, and tell us a little detail. From the conversation I realized that IT professionals in the Turkish market is small and everything related to the industry has just started to develop. Move along, and I continue to be channeled to the villa. Three or four days of excellent sea and sun and I are increasingly appears on the Internet, has already begun work on breaking, and everything going on in the network. Often fall on YouTube, where all the time twisting the same advertising pizza. It becomes clear that a form of advertising in the country are obvious problems, advertisers, it is not there.

Googling some queries that are popular in Russia, but in the Turkish language, it is clear that with contextual advertising just about everything as bad. At this point, I was visited by a feeling that I'm where you want and then you can very well earn. I closed my laptop, took his air mattress, as usual swam to the buoy, where I liked to think, and began to think how I do next. The first correct idea - then you need to urgently work. The second thought - you need to start the registration of the company and to score on vacation right now. Back at his apartment, immediately began to study the process of incorporation. It's very simple and inexpensive, but it takes time, which I do not (2-4 weeks for registration). I was rescued by my friend, he already had several legal entities in the country, analogues of our company. Little outlining the situation and prospects, I received the consent of that for awhile on behalf of his company.

On the same day, I took the car to rent. By the way, the price of gasoline 95, translated into Russian rubles - ~ 85 rubles per liter! But almost all are riding on diesel - ~ 75rub. / Liter. One of the most, if not the highest price in the world (in Europe, for sure). As I explained, due to the fact that the country has a lot of agriculture, and it is difficult to achieve normal tax payments from people who live closer to the mountains, so taxes are simply included in the price of fuel. Logical and correct, but do not know how much all this is true. I have a car, a company with a bank account too.

On the same day, or rather it was already almost night, I strained our engineer to hire an interpreter who quickly moved us to a site on the Turkish language. Everything was ready, it remains only to find clients on an empty market. I felt that things can turn out, my friend supported me and kept saying that the Turks are very business people. I could only hope.

Woke up in the morning and immediately got down to business. I drove to the nearest more or less big city (Alanya). Decided to have breakfast at the same time and try to shove their services right in the same place, and I will have breakfast. To do this, find the cafe, which was similar to a private business, and not on any network, but it was civilized framed. It was a small restaurant, where when you prepare a paste. When I came in, the first thing asked, do you have a website? I proudly nodded. I handed my plate and asked him to drive a url. Long page loads - and would be better if it is not loaded. What I saw, it was a horror. Put it right here. Yes, I was right, below you can see a full-fledged site Turkish restaurant. It is so steep that fits in a single image:

Unfortunately, the pasta was not very tasty, in Moscow in times better! And the seller to persuade to "try" to run his mouth advertising delivery and take orders over the internet I could not. Perhaps it bother you that I highly recommend to make the site better. I was a little upset, but never give up, especially when the first failure. Sitting in his rented car began to look for other restaurants rather purposefully been looking for such companies that are working to deliver or at least some price list their products on his personal website. Basically all had horrible sites, but there were exceptions. For example, www.dominos.com.tr . Great design and functionality, I found it quickly, they are great and were already online advertising, worked for at least a context of AdWords. Happy one, more online advertising delivery food I have not seen.

After sitting for an hour in the car, was collected from the base of 20 companies related to the food, which were in the same city. I will not describe each of his long meeting. I offer very favorable terms, payment after the first customers. And to my happiness, I found a common language with 2 restaurants. They were mediocre sites, delivery (judging by the stories of owners) also works, but is not in demand virtually all. Advertising was organized and a few days later I received a payment to the bank account as a sign of a successful advertising campaign. The amounts were small, this was only the beginning.

Then we began to go around with a friend of his partners, with whom he has worked or is working. Companies from different fields, all went on contact, I showed our site, said that already work in Turkey, which does an excellent advertising. Everyone was very interested, I signed a lot of contracts, some very good amount. I began to offer to make a beautiful site for free, provided that the Buda spent a certain amount on advertising. My business works perfectly, low competition online advertising in all spheres of doing their job.

Advertise gave figures, which I never achieved in Russia. Then we began to go round in a brazen hotels. Everything. Fortunately, in Turkey a lot of them. We talked to management, leave your contact details, they passed their leadership. And even so we were able to attract customers.

I worked every day, very tired. But the sea is a great source of energy. That is why it is important for a holiday close to any water. I have long noticed: week spent at sea, the best vacation for your body and a good start for a few months of work. Every night I went to lie down in the water and look at the starry sky. There is nothing better then. You may it seem wrong or auto-suggestion, but after 15 minutes spent in the water, you will not feel tired at all.

Now I clearly understand why companies such as "Yandex", paying great attention to the countries with poorly developed Internet and IT infrastructure as a whole. They know where to work. To all those who work in IT, urgently Ride in Turkey and expand their businesses. There is now very much needed web designers, advertising specialists, SEO, SMO, and so on. In Turkey, a very cheap food and accommodation, especially when there is not a season. October is the perfect time to go and start working. The sea is warm and it can safely swim almost all year round. I now come to settle some things and get back to work soon.

I hope you were wondering. I can still tell many interesting stories and share their experiences. Good luck.
