 "Expat-focused business"
Hi Susan, Just out of curiosity, why have you chosen Uruguay? Is it necessary for you to continue working or is it just something you would like to continue doing? Uruguay is a very small country, as such the market is even smaller. In relation, the expat community is absolutely tiny, and if limited to only those that speak English fluently then you don't have a big pool of potential customers to draw from. The expat community here is quite close knit and rather active, so it can appear quite big. However if you were to actually count the number of expats you would find there aren't very many (and there are many here for short-term periods). Then you must take in to consideration that the service you are offering is very specific and most people don't need a psychologist on a regular basis. Not only that, but setting up a business in Uruguay isn't the easiest of tasks. There are many documents, processes, fees and you are required pay for the services of translators, lawyers, escribanos (notary public) and the like. I don't mean to sound discouraging, I'm just saying it may be a challenging business environment. Have you thought about provided distance services for customers in the US. Or continuing with academic work? Your resume looks very impressive but unfortunately without Spanish you won't make the best use of your skills here. La Universidad de la Republica is the leading university in Uruguay (there are other private colleges). Here is the website for their Faculty of Psychology (only available in Spanish I'm afraid): |
