How do New Zealand entrepreneurial immigrants choose to start a business?

High-tech business includes: biology, computer, communication, Internet, software and hardware development, automatic manufacturing, agricultural scientific research, etc. Generally speaking, businesses with high-tech background and high technical threshold are more likely to pass the audit of New Zealand Immigration Bureau.

Second, the business has high growth potential.

Start-ups or existing enterprises, if they have high growth potential, are more likely to be approved by the immigration bureau, but they need a detailed and complete business plan.

Third, export New Zealand products.

Exporting New Zealand products is a relatively simple business model. In order to enable New Zealand entrepreneurs to use their original channel resources to "sell" New Zealand products and promote New Zealand's exports, the New Zealand Immigration Bureau allows entrepreneurial immigrants who export New Zealand products to have the opportunity to be approved. In this case, the business model established in New Zealand must be qualified as an exporter, open to other countries and regions in the world (usually the export direction is Chinese mainland) and take formal trade channels.

Fourth, business is good for New Zealand.

Enterprises founded by New Zealand entrepreneurial immigrants also need to be "beneficial to New Zealand", and the criteria for judging whether the enterprise is beneficial to New Zealand are:

1. Can new technologies be introduced?

2. Can new management, skills or experience be introduced?

3. Can you introduce new products?

4. Can new technologies be introduced?

Can we open up new export markets?

6. Can we expand the existing export market in a certain field?

7. Do you employ New Zealand citizens/residents in your business?

8. If a company is acquired, can it make the company enter high growth or greatly improve its management system?

This is a description of the entrepreneurial immigration plan written by an experienced New Zealand entrepreneurial immigrant. He is engaged in furniture sales. Although it is different from most applicants' industries, we can still learn a thing or two from it and provide useful reference for future immigration operations.

There is a furniture street in New Zealand, where there are furniture stores, online stores, warehouse stores and some are sold at home. If you write the wrong business model in your plan, it may lead to very high business costs or little business. The higher the cost, the lower your profit. And if the business model is poor, even if the cost is low, it may not be sold and it will not make money. So in general, it is very difficult to locate a friend who doesn't know New Zealand, or a friend who has never done business although he has been looking forward to it for a long time in New Zealand. I hope you will consider it carefully.

Another key point in the plan is turnover. Many people set the turnover at a very high level from the beginning, that is, 400,000 to 500,000 or 600,000 to 700,000 New Zealand dollars at a time, thinking that it is not too much to change into RMB, but it is foolish to really start a business in New Zealand.

I felt very tired when I started my business for more than two years. At that time, I vowed to have a good rest and buy gifts for myself and my family after I got my green card. However, once the business is started, it is really difficult to stop. Guests always force you to "open the door today" and "why did you come to your shop and the door didn't open?" Aren't you cheat people? "

When it comes to business plan, the intermediary will generally write your plan according to the requirements that can make the Immigration Bureau reply as soon as possible. I remember that at that time, my planned turnover was 280,000 yuan per year, with an annual growth of 15%, and so was my profit. At that time, I thought the turnover might be ok, but it was not too high, only 280,000 yuan, which was equivalent to 1.5 million yuan. For many people, the turnover in China is only one month, even less than one month. So many people put the turnover of 500,000,600,700,000 on the plan, not many. Coupled with the encouragement and instigation of the intermediary (so that the approval can be fast, otherwise you will not be approved), so many people are confused and then write the turnover of the plan unrealistically.
