The Manager says: 'Do you have any sales experience?' The Indian says: 'Sir, I was a salesman back home in India.' Well, the boss liked the Indian chappie so he gave him the job. 'You start tomorrow.. I'll come down after we close and see how you did.' His first day on the job was rough but he got through it. After the store was locked up, the boss came down. 'How many sales did you make today?' Indian boy says: 'Sir, Just ONE sale.' The boss says: 'Just one? No! No! No! You see here our sales people average 20 or 30 sales a day.' If you want to keep this job, you'd better be doing better than just one sale. By the way, how much was the sale for?' Indian boy says: ' $101 237. 64' Boss says:...

1 Consumer Trends
2 Health Sector
Rishi Khanna  |  Supported idea  "Consumer Trends"  |  3 years ago
Its common that we all get carried away by the looks. We give 1st preference to what we see. So packaging is another way by which the consumers get carried away. Why do people get carried away by looks ??? Any idea??
Rishi Khanna  |  Added idea  "Health Sector"  |  3 years ago
In the health sector, while there are specific norms and regulations to govern the nature of formulation, dosage, etc., there are virtually none as far as packaging is concerned, at least in India. Every formulation is unique and therefore...

For a business to be sucessful the most important thing is that one needs to be aware of any taxes involved in both importing and exporting goods. Customs regulations on imports and exports will need to be clarified before you start. Make sure that...

Made in India and meeting success overseas? Yes, it's happening. Reasons range from lower trade barriers to hard-core marketing.. Desi Brand Foreign Land Dabur chyawanprash US Kingfisher beer UK Kinetic scooters Latin America Zodiac shirts Holland Amaron batteries Singapore Nightingale diaries Europe Hidesign bags Norway It's a case of globalisation in reverse. At a time when the Indian marketplace is overflowed with multinational brands across categories, Indian brands have been quietly creating a foothold for themselves overseas. Ranging from food products, cars, two-wheelers, fairness creams, carpets, ayurvedic products, herbal cosmetics, watches, liquor, clothing, leather bags, even dia...

If carrying bag is a style statement for men, then why not carry one ?? Well I do carry a stylish looking bag which can be used for both business and causal..
Satwinder Singh  |  Argues in support of  "No"  |  2 years ago
There is no change for men... It's all about the necessity of things we carry. Most of the men doesn't like to carry anything, it looks more professional.. Bag is carried only when laptops are with us.. Females however carry a lot in their bags....

i thnk if LG WANTS TO ENTER RURAL MARKET IT SHOULD COMPROMISE THE PRICE
Rishi Khanna  |  Argues in support of  |  3 years ago
The product quality needs to be compromised to a certain extent in rural market and there I think the company would be loosing its brand image which it has achieved in many years.
B.Mehernath  |  Argues in support of  "Yes"  |  3 years ago
I do agree, the rural market has the potential and they can afford to buy branded products. Well ifwe compare today's scenario, there is hardly any difference in urban and rural market. You can see latest handsets to microwave and latest...

Ajit Khan  |  Argues in support of  "No"  |  2 years ago
I don't think that will be a "Great" decision for the company. People prefer online buying because they don't want to physically go and buy in some malls. In other words they feel a bit lazy. If the online shop opens a physical mall, for a few...
Rishi Khanna  |  Argues in support of  |  3 years ago
No when a online company is doing well with that format it should stick to its guns, why try out of the box just to make profits, it is not sure that the online successfull company will succeed in the normal physical store, which needs more money in...

I think adding bricks to e-tailing will give a better chance to customer in understanding us as the retailer. At the same time customer can try and test our sample products in the store which gives him a better idea on what he is going to get....
