In the complex landscape of E-2 visa applications, the issue of a "non-substantial" investment is a common hurdle faced by many visa applicants. Attorneys often point out instances where clients have not invested sufficiently into a business. Even worse, consular officers deny visas due to perceived low investments, creating a challenging scenario, particularly for businesses that inherently require minimal upfront capital. So, how can you increase your E-2 investment quickly and efficiently?
1. Invest in Your Online Presence: The Power of Digital Marketing
In today's digital age, having a strong online presence is not just an option but a necessity. Consider allocating funds to invest in a professional website and robust social media strategies. Businesses invest in marketing to attract clients, and online platforms are powerful tools for expanding your reach. Moreover, an online presence adds credibility to your company, a factor adjudication and consular officers value.
2. Traditional Marketing Channels: Stationery and Advertising
Sometimes, the classics never go out of style. Investing in stationery, including letterheads, brochures, flyers, and mailing materials, is not only a practical business move but also a valuable investment for E-2 purposes. These traditional marketing channels not only spread awareness about your operation but also contribute significantly to your overall E-2 investment.
3. Market Research: An Investment in Knowledge and Success
Knowledge is power, especially in the competitive U.S. market. Consider allocating funds for market research before venturing into new business endeavors. Market research documents not only provide essential insights into market trends but also serve as a strategic way to increase your E-2 investment.
In conclusion, navigating the challenge of meeting E-2 investment requirements requires a strategic and creative approach.
