Murali | Wed Nov 5 02:27:10 2014
There are many middle aged aspiring entrepreneurs with substantial savings in hand. They are fence sitters as they are unable to decide the product and ho wto market it. Too many Chinese made goods are being imported to India. It would be a good idea for MSME officials to encourage retired professional to form clusters of start up consultants across the country to study and advise these potential entrepreneurs to kick start manufacturing substitutes for these imported simple products with added improvement. Of course these consultants will be paid a an advance fee, but balance fee only after the product hit the market
