About my Philippine Books

My name is Perry Gamsby and quite possibly many of you reading this already know me through my other eBooks, “Philippine Dreams”, “StreetWise Cebu!-The Expats Guide”, “Filipina101-How To Meet The Filipina Of Your Dreams” and “Filipina202 –How To Marry And Migrate Your Dream Filipina”. If you have read one or all of my other books or this is your first introduction to me, I know you will be completely satisfied with this latest offering.
“MAKING A LIVING IN THE PHILIPPINES!” (What You Need To Know To Operate A Small Business, Get A Job Or Invest In The Philippines) has been written with you in mind; the average, everyday guy who wants to escape to the Philippines and live every day with the Filipina of his dreams but still needs to make a living!
This E-Book will explain to you everything you need to know to start up a small business, get a job or invest in the Philippines!
You will have in your possession a detailed and thoroughly researched work that will tell you:
–> What Businesses And Professions You Can Legally Own And Operate!
–> What Are The Hoops You Have To Jump Through To Get Started!
–> How Much Money You Need To Guarantee Your Survival If Not Your Success!
–> Who You Can Trust And Who You Should Never, Ever Deal With!
This book is the culmination of my own twenty year involvement with the Philippines, including three years living the reality disclosed in this book day after day! I have drawn not only on my own experiences in business, employment and investing, I also include the success secrets of men who have lived your dream and made it into reality!
We attempt to address your concerns and doubts by providing as much information as possible about what you are getting yourself into. Not just concerning the process of marriage and migration but in spending the rest of your lives together…
Do you know the five best business opportunities you can start for less than US$20,000?
Do you know a business you can start for US$200 and feed a family of five with it?
Do you know what you can do in business and what will land you in a detention cell awaiting deportation?
Do you know how to handle a business negotiation with Filipinos?
Do you know how to deal with a non-paying customer who is armed to the teeth? I do and I tell you the answers to all the other questions and More!
There are many traps waiting for the naïve, the ill-advised and the trusting in this marketplace. Forewarned is indeed forearmed and knowledge dispels fear, clichés to some but facts of life when starting a business in the Philippines!
My books on the Philippines are not like any other book on Filipinas you will find! Why? I am a professional writer and often I am writing about topics I do not have first hand knowledge of so I need to research it and take a 101 on the subject myself. What makes Making A Living In The Philippines special is that is that I am writing from my heart about something I am lived through everyday form three years.
Not only do I include my own experiences, I also use the successes and failures of numerous other expats who have gone before to help you avoid the common mistakes so many expats make!. Some of these have been incredibly successful and started with the proverbial nothing, others were better financed and failed miserably. You can learn why some did and some didn’t within the pages of this book.
I know so many that are now living in the Philippines and supporting their families making money in the Philippines and know you can too.
Wishing you Every Success
Warm Regards,
Perry Gamsby.
P.S. I have a real interest in your success. After starting your business, investment or finding that job please don’t forget to write me back. I love to hear stories and adventures of how the Philippines has changed peoples lives
