International report
As Syrian workers return home from Turkey, local businesses feel the loss

International report

While polls say the majority of Turkish people welcome the departure of Syrians displaced by the civil war, Turkey's business owners are feeling the pinch with the loss of their workforce. With the end of the Syrian civil war, Turkey claims that nearly a million refugees who were living there have already returned home. Their departure is being welcomed by the Turkish government, amid growing public animosity over the presence of more than 3 million refugees. But for many Turkish companies, Syrians are an economic lifeline – as seen in Gaziantep, an industrial city close to the Syrian border.  The Inci Boya company is one of hundreds of small factories and workshops in the city. With a couple of dozen workers, hundreds of pieces of furniture are spray-painted each day. With long hours in air thick with dust, it's arduous, dirty work. As in many factories in Gaziantep, Syrians make up a large share of the workforce.  “I can't get people from my own community to work in my sector,” explains owner Halil Yarabay. "Many workshop owners and many businesses are unfortunately experiencing this.” He blames societal changes, “Our children, our youth... they consider such work beneath them. They consider they've failed in their family's eyes by working with their hands as a furniture maker or a mechanic.” French journalist arrested in Turkey while covering pro-Kurdish protest released Realities of returning But local authorities claim nearly 100,000 Syrians have already left the city – including including several who worked at Inci Boya. During a welcome tea break, the topic of going home is on everyone's tongue. Ahmed Hac Hussein has been working there for more than five years. He, too, is thinking of leaving. “Many people are returning,  I have a relative who moves a family back to Syria every day,” he said. “For me, I lived in Aleppo for 35 years. I have so many friends there, I haven't seen them for 14 years. I have three sisters there, and I haven't seen them either. I want to go.” However, Hussein, who lost his home in the war, acknowledges that the economic realities in Syria make returning difficult. “You need to have money to pay the monthly rent. You need a job, but there is no work. My brother went back to Aleppo, but he says business is too slow.” Listening is Hussein's son, Ibrahim, who started working here a year ago after leaving school. He feels differently: “I grew up here; this place became my second home. I love it here a lot. I was two years old when I came here, and I never went back. I don't want to go back.”   Demographic time bomb   Turkish companies such as Inci Boya will be hoping many Syrians feel the same as Ibrahim, claims Atilla Yesilada, Turkey's economic analyst for consultancy Global Source Partners. He says around 900,000 Syrians work in small businesses and factories across Turkey. “They've filled all the low-paying jobs. Without Syrians, business owners say they'll go bankrupt, since that keeps costs down." This reliance on Syrian workers, and their departure, also comes as Turkey faces a demographic time bomb. “The birth rate has declined substantially. The Turkish birth rate is 1.5, and you know, replacement is 2.1," Yesilada added. He warns the outlook for Turkey is grim, given the experience of other countries. "[The birthrate is] coming down significantly, and it's been going down for 20 years.… [the example of] China shows that there is nothing you can do about it.” Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan recently called on families to "serve the nation" by having at least three children. His minister of family and social services claimed nearly half of Turkish families didn't have children. To attract workers, visa and work permit restrictions were lifted last year for all Turkic Central Asian nations. Turkey blocks calls for regime change in Iran as protests escalate Rising costs But at the Inci Boya factory, owner Halil Yarabay is already counting the cost of Syrians leaving, and says a bidding war to keep these workers is beginning. "Labour costs are rising. Employees we paid 10,000 TL a week now cost up to 15,000," he said. Some larger companies in Gaziantep – such as Tat Holding, which makes furniture and sweets among many other products – are even considering following their workers back to Syria, says its CEO Salih Balta.  "Syria is close to Gaziantep and allows us to produce and export at up to 35 percent lower cost," he explained. Balta claims that producing in Syria – a member of the Arab League – would allow his company to export tax-free to 17 Arab countries under its free trade agreement. “For us, the Gulf countries are a very important market," he said. Gaziantep, along with many cities across Turkey, has seen protests against Syrian incomers. Several polls have found that the majority of people want them to return. But this could ultimately prove a double-edged sword, as businesses face growing economic pain over the loss of their Syrian workforce.

#759 What if a simple postcard could open the door to a full-blown, high-margin local marketing agency? In this episode, host Brien Gearin sits down with Dalton Joyner and Rachel Smith, founders of Big Sky Automation, to break down a simple (and surprisingly profitable) local-agency growth play: using shared direct-mail postcards as a “foot-in-the-door” offer that brings small businesses in fast — then upselling into higher-value services like web development, Google Business Profile optimization, and reputation management. Dalton and Rachel share their origin story, how they structure the postcard program, the exact tools they use to fulfill mailers through USPS EDDM, and how they keep execution simple with Canva and automation. They also reveal how they've turned the model into an online community that helps others launch the same business in their own towns! What we discuss with Dalton and Rachel: + Shared direct-mail postcards + Low-cost “foot-in-the-door” offers + Splitting postcard costs + USPS EDDM fulfillment + Local business lead generation + Upselling agency services + Google Business Profile optimization + Reputation management systems + High-margin postcard profits + Community-based agency model Thank you, Dalton and Rachel!

This season on Moneda Moves, we have been expanding how we talk about capital, because it's not just about money. It's also about power and access, across sectors. Today, we're talking about what it takes to gain access to one of the most traditional forms of capital: loans.According to the Latino Business Action Network, the odds of loan approval from national banks are 60% lower for Latino-owned businesses than for comparable white-owned businesses in 2024. And for Latina-owned businesses, the gap is even wider — with just 39% average approval rates from both national and local banks.That's why voices like Vanessa Sancha matter. She is an Assistant Vice President and Bilingual Business Access Advisor for the Chicago/Milwaukee region of U.S. Bank, providing support in both Spanish and English. In her role, Vanessa helps bridge critical gaps in information, connections, and capital, which otherwise can limit growth and opportunity for small business owners.A seasoned financial professional and community leader, Vanessa is driven by a mission to empower diverse business owners through access to capital and resources. Her financial services career spans over 16 years, including a notable tenure at PNC Bank, where she advanced through leadership roles in business banking and branch management.Vanessa also served as a Relationship Manager at local CDFI, Milwaukee Economic Development Corporation (MEDC), managing and underwriting a commercial portfolio. Her expertise lies in building strong client relationships and offering tailored guidance to help businesses thrive across diverse industries.Beyond her professional accomplishments, Vanessa is deeply committed to giving back. She serves on the board of the Wisconsin Veteran Business Alliance and the WWBIC loan committee. She has developed and led financial education programs for youth and adults through organizations like Journey House, WRTP, Milwaukee Christian Center and Running Rebels, inspiring participants to achieve their goals and contributing to more equitable economic outcomes in her community.She is committed to advancing opportunities for underserved communities and helping build a more inclusive economy where every entrepreneur can succeed. When she's not connecting with business leaders or volunteering, Vanessa enjoys spending time with her daughter, cheering her on at basketball and volleyball games.In this week's episode, we're talking about how banks can partner with local businesses and open the door to opportunities that have historically been closed to them. Financial capital, like loans, offers local businesses the chance to grow and create more financial stability for the community. With these programs, big banks are reaching out to entrepreneurs to offer guidance, help them navigate the financial challenges they're facing, and help them increase their chances of getting loans. Tune in to hear more about these programs and how local entrepreneurs can grow their businesses through financial capital.   Follow Vanessa on Instagram @_v.s.anabel_ and on her LinkedIn. Check out the US Bank's Access Commitment here! Follow Moneda Moves on Instagram: @MonedaMovesFollow your host Lyanne Alfaro on Instagram: @LyanneAlfaroMain podcast theme song from Premium Beat.

In this episode, I'm diving deep into the world of online reviews with Daniel Vivarelli, the founder of Star Loop. If you've ever wondered how to consistently get genuine five-star reviews for your veterinary practice—or any local business—this episode is packed with actionable strategies and real-world insights. Daniel shares the unique approach Star Loop uses, like planting a tree for every review, and we explore why this kind of meaningful incentive works so much better than the usual coffee cards or discounts. We also get into the psychology behind why clients don't leave reviews (even when they love your clinic), how reviews impact your SEO and client acquisition, and the best ways to ask for feedback without feeling awkward or salesy. We cover everything from the nuts and bolts of crafting the perfect review request—timing, language, and delivery—to the legal pitfalls you need to avoid, like fake reviews and compliance issues. Daniel and I also talk about how Google My Business and local SEO are evolving, and why reviews are more important than ever with the rise of AI and voice search. Plus, we get specific about the unique challenges veterinary practices face, especially when it comes to sensitive situations, and how to empower your team to ask for reviews authentically and compassionately. Whether you're a practice manager, a local business owner, or just looking to up your marketing game, this episode will give you a step-by-step playbook for building a five-star reputation that stands out in your community. I break down each tip with practical advice you can implement right away, so you can start seeing results—more reviews, more trust, and more new clients walking through your door.
