The Business Channel

Investing in a piece of land is seen as one of the top assets one can hold throughout his/her life because the value of the plot is everchanging and generally multiplies quickly if the market is in a positive position. Real estate is considered to be the most secured sector to invest one’s wealth. So why buy a property in Dubai? There is n number of reasons to buy property in Dubai:

• There are two general phenomena followed after purchasing a property; first is to live in the purchased property and second is to yield rental from it. Dubai properties are both a luxury to live in and generate higher rental income than other famous global cities like London and New York.
• Stabilized political and economic status makes Dubai a safe option to invest in as well as live in.
• There is a direct relation between resident visa and property in Dubai. Once someone purchases a property in Dubai; the government provides the resident visa to buyer totally hassle-free.
• As compared to other capital cities, Dubai is the cheapest real estate hub according to various research reports.

Therefore, in order to purchase property in Dubai, you need to connect with channel partners and brokers present in Dubai whom you can interact with through mutual acquaintances, International property awards, exhibitions, business conclaves, etc.

Marketing plays a key role when it comes to developing new sales levels in the real estate sector. Without a strong combination of marketing elements, any real estate firm may soon see its fall days as both the staff and the organizations present in the real estate market change just as month changes in a year. In order to retain oneself in such an evolving market; it is necessary to look after the following marketing elements:

• Generating leads: The more you meet and greet people, the merrier it gets. Generating leads means maintaining contact with individuals you meet in any event, through mutuals, etc. Staying in touch with your community will help you keep up with the sales and marketing of your firm. This can be done through social media, newsletters, emailers, SMS marketing, etc. 
• Advertising: Creative advertising campaigns always attracts new audience towards the organization whereas the present fanbase remains informed about all the changes and new offers introduced by the organization.
• Social media platform: Social media platform is the cheapest and the most trending marketing element. The more you maintain your connection on social media with your community, the more your sales would flourish. Today various tools provided by social media platforms have eased the implementation of marketing strategy.
• Attending events: Attending events as a participant or just as a delegate does benefit your business when you tap the right people and choose to attend several events both at the regional and national level. Events like real estate awards or International property awards are a great platform to flourish and enter a new market.

There are numerous benefits of attending any event other than just visiting out of boredom. An event; whether social or business related is a hub of benefits that can help in bridging the gap between you and other beings. Let’s have a glance at why an event is no more a leisure activity for individuals:

• Divergent audience: An event has various visitors coming from a diverse business background and geographical region who carry a different idea, vision, experience, etc. with them. While attending any event, the first thing while meeting others is to introspect what amount of knowledge they are carrying in their bag and how their ideas are different from yours as this can help you both judge and envision new things for future.
• Bridging the gap: The process of interaction would help you make new connections which can surely help you in the near future if you would be keen on maintaining them for a longer period of time. For example: If you are looking forward or already have a consumer goods sale organization; maintaining connections with individuals with marketing background would help you increase sales of your products. 
• Feedback: If you already have a company; the event can help you analyze the reach, experience, and position of your organization as well as your product. For example, an entrepreneur who has an interior designing firm attending a commercial real estate sales awards would get to interact with so many other entrepreneurs who can belong from either the same field or real estate sector and analyze whether his marketing campaigns are successful in reaching their firms or not.

The only platform where an organization and a hotel is similar is the treatment they provide to their employees and clients. If an organization is known to be fussy about choosing the right employee for their organization; the same perspective can be seen in the case of the employee when they go forward for an interview. What an employee looks for while introspecting organizations are the ex-employee feedbacks ( positive and negative), incentives (monetary and non-monetary), the history (past performances), market position (reputation and economic standing), awards and recognition (does the organization participates in awards like real estate awards, etc.), pattern of rotation of staff, ambience etc. 

No employee would like to pursue his/her career in an organization which lags behind in the frog race and isn’t efficient within its working system. 

“If you want to move the needle, you have to stick your neck out. Sometimes you get bruised, but the important thing is to always use the potential for discovery.” A line well said by Ken Langone and well implemented by individuals in the creative field like interior designers, architects, etc. If it is tough for entrepreneurs to stick with the competition and the soaring market; it is equally tough for interiors designers, artists, architects, graphic designers, etc to stay with the ever-evolving competition and demand for something fresh by the society. What these creative heads strive for is not restricted to only getting positive feedback from clients and a hefty amount of profit to survive but also winning in International property awards which can raise their level in global recognition and business. Here the needle for creative heads are divided into awards, client’s satisfaction, and profit.

Communication is a simple process of sharing thoughts, ideas, vision and experience with other individuals. But this simple process is what decides how good the fortune would be for any organisation or individual. Therefore, a good networking process should be maintained to have only the right effects and not the negative effects.

• Expansion of social reach: Networking process starts with two main sources; first is through mutual acquaintances (example: business partners, investors, etc.) and second through events (example: International property awards, exhibitions, and conclaves). The number of individuals you meet and communicate your ideas, ethics, vision; the more is the scope of being socially visible in the industry.

• Deep analysis of the market situation: The trend in the market is an ever-changing phenomenon to which entrepreneurs abide by. Networking platforms invite individuals from divergent fields. The interaction between individuals belonging from different fields is what gives birth to the sharing of experience, information, ideas and helps analyze the market situation.

• Gives birth to new ventures: With knowledge of new market trends, ideas comes the creation of new associations. Today, the bigger firms are associating themselves with smaller firms in order to expand their market or create a new market trend. Hence, the birth of a new venture takes place.

Receiving appreciation and acknowledgement from management and industry have a greater impact on the marketing and sales of a firm. What is seen as a acknowledgement is indirectly linked to the business development of an organisation. The louder the name is called, the more people hear it. Awards such as best design of the year, real estate sales awards, CEO of the year, best marketing campaign, etc. create a global identity for any company and escalate the communication power as well as level in industrial competition.

The rate at which the number of awards or certificates increase defines the fortune of an organization. Gone are the days when word of mouth was more powerful. Today customers look out for the number of times an organization has won awards, mentioned in print media, digital media, etc. Awards also speak a lot about the level of service a firm provides, how professional the firm is in its service, and how flexible it is for its clients.

Awards are the new benchmark in the world of metrics!

After analyzing the cash inflow in a business, one needs to find a constant way through which the revenue generated can be multiplied for future ventures or future expenses. And the simplest yet risky solution to this thought is an investment.

Investment refers to the process of funding a project in order to generate more revenue in the form of return on investment. The individuals in the working class classify the type of investment on the basis of their reach which is either global or local.

When it comes to investing on a global level; there is a constant need of networking and associating with individuals (events like International property awards, etc. are most beneficial platforms) from different parts of the world. The connecting dots finally lead to a new association and greater scope of a better investment.

On a global scale, the most favorite country for real estate investment is the UAE or Emirates. The major reason behind such an outlook is its prime location, favored business policies, development of infrastructure on a rapid scale and firm political system. According to a study, the country that has a high rate of investment in the UAE is South Korea.

The top name in the investment sector list is commercial construction, followed by the real estate sector and trade. The boost is from the lease in FDI sectors and the plan formed by the UAE government like Dubai Plan 2021.
