Internet Based Business

[Shringarey]

Aashika,

I'll tell you a real story about a girl in my neighborhood. She had two great passions - baking and film making. She is an only child. He parents insisted that she "at least get a degree", so she did her BCom. Now she makes documentaries. She makes some money out of that. Also, she bakes cakes and sells. I will tell you about her cake business from what I know.

1. She makes only as per order. Her cakes are too good. We always buy from her those cakes we require on occasions.

2. She has no staff, no fancy machines. She makes herself. So no headaches.
3. No ads, no marketing. Only on word of mouth.
4. She runs a good business. She can do better, but she refuses to expand. I will do so much, by myself and have a jolly good time doing it.
5. Since she is an only child,s he will inherit the flat. With your own house in Mumbai, you need a lot less to survive
6. He biggest worry is her mother who is always pressurizing her got get married. She hates it.
7. Man, if I have seen happiness, its in her face!!

Believe me, I have to learn from her the "art of being happy".

Thought I would let you know, so that you can be inspired.

you probably need an idea which needs some setup effort but minimum maintainance effort... Coaching classes will need your effort on an ongoing basis.... a website like gumtree, ebay, shpock, craigs list - you put in effort once, invite people to participate and sit back.... I am not saying necessarily copy these websites, all I am saying is think of something that does not need ongoing attention.

I know somebody who started career in Maruti as a Jap tranlator, retired as a Senior Manager. Been to Japan on business trips may be 100s of times.

She can use both her skills by joining NDTV. She can bake stories into films there.

The key to happiness is low expectations.

I am sure our Shringacharya pai satisfies both these conditions. The girl will be happy for the rest of her like... and her happiness will keep our hero happy too

Speaking of small, she would certainly have to set low expectations if she is looking forward to getting it on with Shring!
