VANCOUVER TRIP

I went to Vancouver to compare that city with Toronto for living and also moving my business. We decided to go by car although it was very far from our city(around 20 hours drive). The Road in Saskatchewan and some part of Alberta was flat and a little bit boring but the rest of the way was so beautiful and exiting with a nice riverbed view.

Grater Vancouver is the most expensive city across Canada. Although it is a very big city but the most part of that looks like a big country. Every where is green and woody, houses are not close together and some of them are behind the trees so it is hard to see them. Annually precipitation is around 1200 mm, that's why every where is green and beautiful. The richest people usually lives in West Vancouver and North Vancouver so you can find some house's price up to 20 million dollars there. 

Many things to establish a business in Vancouver is similar to Toronto. In one word, easy to find employees and hard to compete in business. I believe that in these situations every family has to have an alternative job or business. In fact, "Not to put all your eggs in one basket."

BUSINESS TRIP

Last month I went to Toronto to do some research about my business. As I had closed up my business in Saskatoon it was necessary to find a better place to move. First of all I made an appointment with the manager of a clinic in downtown. I met her and I believe that meeting was helpful because I got many information about marketing and finding practitioners that I never knew before. 

In this trip I could met a Doctor who worked with me in Saskatoon before. I noticed that although it is easy to find a practitioner in Toronto but there are many competition in this area whereas in Saskatoon our service was unique and there was not any competitor. Of course it is very hard to find proper practitioner in Saskatoon.

I also visited a vacant office for rent, a very spacious office with five large rooms and beautiful reception area with very low price for the rent. It was very interesting for me because the rent of a same office in Saskatoon was at least twice. on the other hand, I saw a sign of a same clinic which was closed in that building. Both of them was a kind of portent for me and said:" you should be careful!"

I believe that it was a successful business trip, not to find a better location but finding more information to compare situations between two cities. Next time I have to prepare more appointments to see more people and places so that I have a comprehensive inference.

BUSINESS TRIP

Last month I went to Toronto to do some research on my business. As I had closed up my business in Saskatoon, it was necessary to find a better place to move to. First of all I made an appointment with the manager of a clinic in downtown Toronto. that meeting was helpful because I got a lot of information about marketing and staffing.
I could also met a Doctor who worked with me in Saskatoon before. I noticed that although it is easy to find a practitioner in Toronto, there are much competition this area whereas in Saskatoon our service was unique with no competitor. Of course On the other hand, it is very hard to find a proper practitioner in Saskatoon.

I also visited a vacant office for rent, a very spacious office with five large rooms and a beautiful reception area at a very low price for the rent. It was very interesting for me because the rent of a same office in Saskatoon was at least twice as much. on the other hand, I saw a sign of a clinic with the same services which was closed in that building. Both of them(cheap rent and closed clinic) were a kind of
portent for me and alarmed," you should be careful!"

I believe that it was a successful business trip, not to find a better location but make it parallel more information to compare situations between the two cities. Next time I have to prepare more appointments to see more people and places so that I can come to a better-informed decision.
