Expanding your business to Russia is
probably one of the best and the most cost
effective ways of business growth.

Here are just a few reasons why:
  • After the fall of communism, the
    newly unchained Russian capitalism
    had a long way to go and a very
    short time to get there.  This is why
    the Russian people are still very
    receptive both to new products and
    services, as well as to new markets
    and opportunities.
  • Russian economy is currently pretty
    strong, and keeps growing.  This, in
    combination with what we have just
    stated above, creates a unique
    blend of different coexisting groups
    of population, when the price of
    labor is comparable to that in third
    world counties, while the demand for
    (and therefore the price of products
    and services) can be established at
    European standards.  This unique
    opportunity, of course, will not
    last very long.
  • But the prognosis is good:  Russia
    keeps moving in the direction of
    establishing Western-type
    economy.  This means that
    businesses and business
    relationships established with Russia
    now are more likely to grow rapidly,
    rather than sustain a risk of decline
    once the new boom is over.  It's like
    getting in at the top right at the time
    of the formation of General Motors
    or Ford Corporation, when it was
    American capitalism that was just
    starting to establish itself.
GALINA'S BED AND BREAKFAST
We'll hook you up with
More contacts for business,
educational or personal needs
A few words on how to make your
revenues soar by
doing business with Russia
It's not only profitable -- it's also FUN!  
There are
Two Ways you can take advantage of our CONNECTIONS program:
Option A:     Schedule a thematic tour.

Whether you want to explore your area of interest,
find out more about a particular industry, or study a
particular group of population as potential
customers,
there is no substitute for 'being
there'
.

Especially when we make it affordable and fun.

Visit Russia, learn the ropes for yourself, find the
necessary hook-ups, and you have got a good head
start.  Make this a working vacation:  we will arrange
it so that you are having plenty of fun -- and come
back home with everything you need.

At Galina's we go the extra mile to load you up
with knew contacts, connections, friends or
simply interesting people to meet.  

We do so by arranging
  • briefings,
  • debates,
  • special meetings and tours....  or, by simply
    giving you a chance to
  • meet the locals over a good drink and a
    hearty serving of the local cuisine -- with the
    added benefit of an interpreter and a cultural
    guide by your side.    

Here is what you need to do:

  • Schedule a 'custom' tour by clicking on the
    yellow box below (there is no obligation in
    initiating this process -- you will be able to
    cancel easily if you change your mind).
  • Be very specific about who you want to meet
    and for what purpose.
We will do our best to locate the necessary group of
population for you, and depending on your needs,
will arrange briefings, debates, presentations,
business meetings, interviews, etc.  
See our Custom
Tours page for more details.
  • Don't forget to grab a couple of unrelated fun
    activities to supplement the business part of
    this. And you are good to go!

Russian people UNDERSTAND

This is the bottom line of the responses
we receive.  
And it's no wonder: Russian people
were raised with the values and the
philosophical insight of the Russian
literature; they have gone through
national abuse under Stalin; they have
been deceived by the communist
propaganda and finally caught on to it.  
They
know a few things about human
nature -- and they
value what they have
learned.

These friendships helped me break the
bleak routine of coming home from
work every day to the same boring
nothing.  I started actually
hurrying
home, looking forward to talking to
Boris and Oksana.  They always
listened, and they always understood,
almost  like they could see something
everyone else habitually missed, or just
 wanted to ignore.  This was better than
any counseling therapy I have ever
received. It was like chatting with the
characters of Tolstoy and Dostoevsky,
who had miraculously come alive just
for me.

In the beginning I was a bit leery
of trying to communicate with
someone through an interpreter.  
But I have to say that the
connection was totally seamless.
 After a couple calls I was getting
so much into the conversation, I
was hardly even aware of that
there was an interpreter on the
line as well.

I've hit the jackpot.  I could
have never imagined
everything I stood to gain from
this business relationship.

These are the people who have unshakable values
and are completely dedicated to whatever they
believe is their calling.  I used to know a couple of
Russian immigrants here, but this was different.  I
feel like I have discovered an immeasurable well of
human values and of insight.  Establishing this
contact was not only a good business move for my
company.  It was good for me also.
                                                   Larry G.  ND
I thought, heck, I'll try it.  I leave more money at the club
trying not to be lonely.  I'll tell you what:  I hardly even go to
the club any more.  My life has changed.  I feel I have met
people who are real.  Genuine, sincere.  Who value me as a
person and who can help because they know something
about life.

important) aspect of life, travel, or business and personal growth.
 Want to establish good business links and find the little niches your competitors have no idea about?  
MEET THE RIGHT PEOPLE.

someone who understands you.  Well, you get the picture.


But our culture is only a FRACTION of a vast world out there, which is
full of people who would love to share (or even facilitate) your ideas,
buy your products, who want (and need) to hear your opinions and
who know and understand things other people don't.

How do we find them, how can we discover the immeasurable riches
of their thought, insight and experience -- or present them something
they may desperately need if we don't speak their language and their
blogs look like this:
