Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szet...Volition Properties
=== Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szeto) ===
Ever been curious about Real Estate Investing in the US?? At Volition, for the past 14 years, we have been focused on helping investors invest in over $250M of real estate and generate $100M of wealth in the Toronto market, but we are always open to learning more about other business models and learning from other investors.
The US has always been an intriguing market to invest in. But the US is a big place… if you’re interested in investing in the US, you probably have a lot of questions, like:
☑️ Specifically WHERE should you invest?
☑️ What are the best markets to invest in and why?
☑️ How much are property prices there?
☑️ What are the returns like?
☑️ What is cashflow like?
☑️ Compared to investing in Toronto or other cities in Ontario, what are the benefits / tradeoffs?
☑️ What ownership structure should I use?
☑️ What are the tax implications?
☑️ Can I get financing?
☑️ What are tenants like?
Enter Erwin Szeto, a longtime friend of Volition. Since 2005, Erwin Szeto and his team have navigated the challenging landscape of being landlords in Ontario. Now, they are shifting their focus and guiding their clients' investments toward the more landlord-friendly environment of the USA. This decision comes after assisting Canadian clients in transacting over $440,000,000 in income properties. Faced with issues like affordability constraints, tenant-friendly laws, rent control, and rental licensing in Canada, Erwin sees a clear opportunity in the U.S. Here, there is a significant influx of investments leading to the creation of high-paying manufacturing jobs. Erwin and his clients are poised to capitalize on these opportunities where landlord rights are stronger and there is no rent control.
To facilitate this transition, Erwin has partnered with and become a client of SHARE, a one-stop-shop U.S. Asset Manager. Founded by Canadians for Canadians, SHARE enables as passive an ownership experience as possible for landlords in the U.S., while still maintaining direct, 100% ownership.

competitors of ADIDAS in the industry are NIKE, and PUMA since it acquired REEBOK
in January, 2006.
NIKE
Nike is currently the world leader in Sports goods industry with a brand value of

14. Strategies
Target Women

Targeting developing countries
Offering variety of products
15. MARKETING STRATEGY
ADIDAS
People purchase products or services for
three basic reasons:
To satisfy basic needs.
To solve problems.
To make themselves feel good.
16. MISSION OF THE
MARKETING PLAN
To devise a marketing plan and formulate strategies which would
help in the achievement of the marketing objectives of the company
which are,
Market penetration – gaining market share across all markets in
which we compete
Market development – expanding into new markets and addressing
new consumer segments
Awareness - increasing awareness and visibility across all brands,
providing clear and consistent messaging and supporting product
initiatives at the point-of-sale.
18. ADIDAS –
Strategy in India
Adidas’ strategy in India has been consistent over the past few years.
The broad elements of the strategy are to target the brand to urban youth
with our brand proposition from ‘competition to lifestyle’ using the
authentic sports platform and build and reinforce credibility through
relevant brand ambassadors and grassroots sports marketing programs.
It would target principal consumption centres, namely metros and build
significant stand-alone exclusive store presence in significant locations.
The strategy would be to play to our strengths, i.e. in apparel and mid to
high priced footwear.
19. CONTINUED
Multi-Brand Approach
There is a natural limit a brand can achieve given the diverse tastes and expectations
of a highly fragmented consumer market. Thus, a multi-brand approach will provide
the firm with a major competitive advantage and significant additional commercial
opportunities compared to a single brand strategy. It can leverage the power of its
brands in a more precise and meaningful way, utilizing the combined strengths of
each to compete for a higher percentage of the market, covering a greater number of
consumer needs, price points and demographics.
20. COMPETENCE
Broader distribution
Close cooperation with retailers can significantly improve the in-
store experience for the product. Establishing shop-in-shop formats
(e.g. with JJB and Dick’s Sporting Goods) or retail partnerships (e.g.
with INTERSPORT) are examples where the company is leading the
industry. Such co operations can be particularly effective in markets
that have become dominated by price and lack of differentiation.
Cost leadership
The acquisition of Reebok has created significant opportunities to
reduce and optimize costs, through scale benefits, back office
consolidation and combined capital expenditure planning.
24. PRODUCT
It has wide range of footwear, sportswear,
sports goods, fashion accessories.
Black label include collboration with
renowned designers such as Alexander
Puma group owns Puma, Tretorn, Hussein,
Chalayan.
25. PRICE
Puma’s pricing is designed to be competitive
to the other fashion shoe retailers. The
pricing is based on the basis of premium
segment as target customers. Puma as a
brand commands high premium.
26. PLACE
Puma shoes are distributed to Multi-Brand
store front and the exclusive Puma stores
across countries. It allows Puma to offer a
such wider selection than any of the
competition.
27. PROMOTION
Location, targeted advertising in the
newspaper and strategic alliances serves as
the foundation of Puma advertising and
promotion effort. The athletes and other
famous sports personalities are always taken
as brand ambassadors. They form the prime
building blocks of their portion strategy.

world, holding the lion share of 33% of the
global market.

casual footwear and accessories for men, women and children.

distributes ice skates, skate blades, in-roller skates, protective gear,
hockey sticks and hockey jerseys and accessories.
34. PRICE
Nike’s pricing is designed to be competitive to the other fashion
shoe retailers.
The pricing is based on the basis of premium segment as target
customers. Nike as a brand commands high premiums.
Nike’s pricing strategy makes use of vertical integration in pricing
wherein they own participants at differing channel levels or take part
in more than one channel level operations. This can control costs
and influence product pricing.
35. PLACE

stores across the globe.
Nike sells its product to about 20,000 retail accounts in the U.S. and
in almost 200 countries around the world.

independent distributors, licensees and subsidiaries.
Independent distributors need not adapt to local pressures because
the 4Ps of marketing are managed by distributors.
36. PROMOTION
Promotion is largely dependent on finding accessible store locations. It
also avails of targeted advertising in the newspaper and creating
strategic alliances.
Nike has a number of famous athletes that serve as brand ambassadors
such as the Brazilian Soccer Team.
Nike also sponsors events such as Hoop It Up and The Golden West
Invitational.
Nike’s brand images, the Nike name and the trademark swoosh, make it
one of the most recognizable brands in the world. Nike’s brand power is
one reason for its high revenues.
Nike’s quality products, loyal customer base and its great marketing
techniques all contribute to make the shoe empire a huge success.
38. STRENGTHS
• Nike is a globally recognized for being the number one
sportswear brand in the World.
• Nike being a competitive organization has a healthy aversion
towards its competitors i.e. during Atlanta Olympics, Reebok
expensed on sponsoring the games; Nike however sponsored the
top athletes and due to this step, it gained valuable coverage.
• Nike has no factories; rather it uses contract factories to get the
work done which makes it quite a lean organization. It has
contracts with above 700 shops globally in about 45 different
countries.
39. STRENGTHS
•Nike is quite strong regarding its research and development; quite evident
regarding its evolving and innovative product range.
•They manufacture high quality at the lowest possible price, if prices rise
due to price hike then the production process is made cheaper by
changing the place of production.
•It belongs to the Fortune 500 companies. Nike employs about more than
30.000 people worldwide.
•It has a strong sense of marketing campaign by sponsoring top athletes.
•It uses linarite foam and fly wire materials in order to make the
manufactured shoes lighter and more controllable.
40. WEAKNESSES
•Even though the organization has a diversified range for
sportswear, the income of the business, however, is still
heavily dependent upon its share of the footwear market
which leaves it at a quite vulnerable spot if for any reason
its market share erodes.
•The retail sector is price sensitive; retailers usually tend to
offer a very similar experience to the consumers with
another cheaper product, which in return tends to get
squeezed as retailers try to pass some of the low price
competition pressure onto Nike.
•Nike was for quite some time unwilling to disclose any type
of information concerning its partnering companies.
41. WEAKNESSES
• It was charged with the violation of overtime and
minimum wage rates in Vietnam, 1996, that was
seen as having poor working conditions, and that it
was also charged for exploiting cheap workforce
overseas.
• Nike was also reported to have applied child labor in
Pakistan and Cambodia to produce soccer balls.
• It was positioned as a subject of criticism by anti-
globalization groups due to its unruly and exploited
manner that was quite a disaster for its reputation.
42. OPPORTUNITIES
• The brand is sternly defended by its owners who believe that Nike is not a
fashion brand, however, a large number of consumers wear Nike Product
because they derive a fashion trend rather than to participate in a sport.
• It is mostly argued that in youth culture, Nike is a fashion brand which also
creates opportunities for Nike since its products would become outdated before
even the product wears out i.e. consumers will feel the need to replace the
product with a newer trend.
• There are many international regions that still need tapping and there is need
for sportswear and with Nike’s strong global brand recognition, it can initiate in
many markets that have the disposable income to spend on high value sports
goods.
• Nike gives a lot of effort on its corporate marketing mainly through the
promotion of corporate brand and sponsorship agreements.
43. THREATS
• Nike is exposed to the international nature of
trade so it sells its product in different
currencies which destabilizes the costs and
margins for profits over long periods of time.
• The market for sports shoes and sportswear is
quite competitive; the competitors are
constantly developing alternative brands and
techniques to take away Nike’s market share.
44. THREATS
• Consumers are constantly shopping around for a better deal that
conveys a good quality and if one store charges a higher price for the
products, the consumer would try to seek a better deal of the same
product in the premises that delivers the same value but cheaper of the
two, this type of price sensitivity among the consumers is a potential
threat to Nike.
• The textile industry unpleasantly upsets the atmosphere, and therefore
the organization is constantly struggling to retain its eco-friendly
reputation.
• A recession may lead to job shortages in most of Nike’s worldwide
branches.
• The organization has experienced many adverse publicity feedbacks due
to its widespread advertising.
46. Rivalry among current
competitors in the industry
The first part is analyzing the current treat or rivalry among
the existing firms. In the footwear industry, the level of
rivalry is high. There are several competitors such as
Reebok, Adidas, New Balance, Puma and of course Nike.
The competition between these companies is so intense
because they are dealing with short-life cycles products.
The growth the athletic footwear industry has experienced
over the past twenty years is beginning to stabilize. This
forces firms to differentiate using marketing, advertising,
fashion and technology to steal market share away from
their competitors.
47. Threat of new entrants to
the industry
The next part is the threat of new competition entering to the
sport footwear industry. The threat in this area is low because
many of the powerful companies in this industry are benefit from
the economic of scale. Since they are producing, marketing,
selling and innovating more, they are saving money because their
fixed costs are spread out over a larger volume.
Another factor which affects the new companies to enter this
industry is product differentiation. Big companies such as Nike,
Reebok and Adidas own their brand identity that differentiates
their product to others and they have established their own loyal
costumers.
48. Bargaining power of
buyers
The costumers have low bargaining power
because the customers cannot affect the
profitability of the industry or the company.
Each pair of shoes is a very small percentage
of overall sales and consumers usually do not
buy shoes in large quantities.
49. Bargaining power of
suppliers
The bargaining power for the suppliers is
medium. The product is unique, and the
switching costs are high. It is also possible for the
suppliers (especially in foreign manufacturing) to
integrate forward into the industry's business (in
overseas markets) and become a rival to the
industry.
Since the raw materials and equipment to make
the sport shoes is very important to the
companies, supplier cab gain bargaining power.
50. Threat of substitutes
This factor is low in the sport footwear
industry, because there are already few
substitute products for it, such as the specific
performance shoes like for basketball, soccer,
baseball, tennis, etc.
The sport footwear industry is constantly
innovating and adapting to the new trends
and costumers needs that can decrease the
treat of substitute products
51. RECOMMENDATIONS
Nike should be more aware of their bad reputation in the labor
practice and try to come out with solution for the unethical business.
Nike is a well known for their product all over the world. However,
Nike must be more careful in releasing the advertising because such
big reputation
Costumer price sensitivity is a potential treat to Nike, that’s why
Nike need also to consider their product price in order to compete
with the other sport brand products.
Try to think solution in case for the big treat of the merger of other
sport brand.
Focus on their product development is very good, but they have to
consider also what are the costumer really needs
52. FOOTWEAR INDUSTRY: PEST
ANALYSIS
POLITICAL
Recent merger between Adidas and Reebok
Home market lobbying/pressure groups
Very few sporting events apart from cricket fixtures to attract
customers

55. SUPPLY CHAIN IN FOOTWEAR
In nutshell the supply chain in footwear starts from the farmers end and ends with
finished goods in the customer’s hand. The farmers who tame the animals send the
skins to skins & hides collector in their respective area, then these raw materials are
sent to the tannery which transforms these skins into raw material for the shoe
manufacturing companies, which in turn convert this into finished goods in the form
of footwear.
Further these footwear are sent to warehouse of the manufacturing companies, after
that these goods are supplies to customers through various channel members like
retailers, wholesalers, retail chains, department stores. The diagrammatic illustration
is shown below:
57. CONSUMER’S PREFERENCE
Globally, Nike is the market leader and has
captured the major share of the footwear
industry. It is known for its excellent quality,
designs and the brand name. It is widely
accepted and preferred at a global level.
58. INDIAN PERSPECTIVE
In India, Reebok and Nike are mostly
preferred by men as they are priced
competitively and has a fairly good
reputation.
Puma is the first choice among girls due to
their feminine designs and colors. They are
even reasonably priced.
60. STRENGTHS

capacity in Tanning

63. THREATS

64. CONCLUSION
The athletic footwear industry is a strong, market driven industry.
From the five forces, four are favorable in this industry.
The threat of the potential entrants is low, the bargaining power of
buyers is low because each pair of shoes sold in very small
percentage, the bargaining supplier is medium, and the only
weaknesses to this industry is the current rivalry.
The competition is very intense and the increase of the research
development and the advertising can be very highly expensive.
78. Suggestions & Recommendation
Research finding
AFTER ASSESSING THE OVERALL
MARKET SCENARIOS WHAT CAME IN PICTURE WAS
AS FOLLOWS:
CONSUMER REACTIONS SUGGESTS THAT NIKE IS THE MARKET LEADER
AMONG ALL ITS CLOSE COUNTERPARTS IN THE SPORTS SHOE AND
APPAREL SEGEMENTS.
AFTER ITS SPONSERSHIP TO MAJOR SPORTS EVENTS AND TEAMS LIKE
SOCCER IN EUROPE AND CRICKET IN INDIA GIVE IT AN EXTRA EDGE.
PEOPLE ARE STILL EXPECTING SOME THING MORE FROM NIKE
ADIDAS IS CHASING ITS POSITION MOST AGGRESIVELY SO NOW IT
REQUIRES MAINTAINING ITS POSITION WITH NEW STUFF.
79. Nike has been the major competitor for adidas.
The new stuff of the adidas is attracting the consumers more which
might led adidas at the top spot in the pack in coming financial year
CONSUMERS ARE NOT SHOWING THAT KIND OF CRAZE IN REEBOK
FOR PAST FEW YEARS .
PROBABLY IT COULD BE BECAUSE OF THE AGGRESSIVE ATTENTION
SNATCHED BY BRANDS LIKE “NIKE” AND “ADIDAS” SPECIALY IN
INDIA .
ONLY 8% MARKET HAS BEEN COVERED BY REEBOK IN RECENT
PAST. THAT IS MISERABLE AS PER ITS STANDARD
REASONS BEING ITS RESTRICTIVE MANUFACTURING IN INDIA, AND
THE COST OF THE PRODUCTS ARE NOT AFFORDABLE AS
COMPARED TO EUROPEAN AND U.S MARKET
80. Suggestion
“THE BOTTOM LINE” OF THE MARKET
RESEARCH SPEAKS THAT BRANDED
SHOES IN INDIA HAS BEEN INCREASINSG
ON DAY BY DAY BASIS.
THAT SOUNDS GOOD FOR
INTERNATIONAL AS WELL AS DOMESTIC
MARKET.
