Sadikk 301 Report post Posted May 12, 2005 Hmmnn.. share market..!!!Lets talk about some more ways of munny making before getting into the bazaar (which I feel is the ultimate). Will ppl be interested about franchising??? Lemme know... 31579[/snapback] give details about investmnt and expected returns and how it works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dilbert 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2005 OK... lets talk about share market later, first I will start off with franchising. The concept of franchising is not new. It is a time tested concept. You see many f the brands around you. They are global brands but are franchised here in India.. Confused?? I betcha.. In simple terms I will explain the concept of franchising. Lets say a guy is doing business, and making money ofcourse & the business is successful. He is having some kind of proven way of working. For.e.g. when Mcdonalds burgers were a success it meant that they had a way of working to make that thing a success. Then some other guy asks that businessman about his secret of success, the guy will share his secret in return for some ongoing money (royalty) from the profits that the new guy will make out of using that businessman's idea. Not neccessarily everytime there is a proven idea, there can be a proven brand, a proven recipe or a proven way of work.. etc etc.. Now this is just a fundamental explaination of franchising. THere are about 1800 franchisors (the guys who franchise their business model) in India alone. About 2/3rd of retail sales in US happens from franchised stores. To select a right franchise is a long process. It involves checking your own aptitude, capacity of investment, in principle you should be agreeing to the way a franchisor works etc etc. Franchising has its own set of advantages & disadvantages...Pros would be, starup cost is less as compared to a stand-alone business, risk is less, ready made brand to work with, independent business with a parent . Cons are... there are many fly-by-night operators, 100% control not possible.. Let me know whaddaya think about this piece, if this thing interests you then tell me to write further about business opportunities in franchising & let me know what budgets are we talking of so that I can try to be as specific as possible. And if this thing doesn't interest you all then we move on to some other way of making munny... Regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chirag 5 Report post Posted May 13, 2005 Good Location / Appt Community or Neighbourhood Arnd for your brand would be some important points in selecting a good Franchisor? We had some examples of "fly-by-night" franchisors >> Bombay Bazaar! They were doing real well. But 1 fine day they jus wound up everything! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sadikk 301 Report post Posted May 17, 2005 Any experts in shares??? please give some ideas, and direct tip of which share to buy and which to avoid in particular time span. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dilbert 0 Report post Posted May 18, 2005 OK Munnamoblie... here we go !!! But please remember that I will quote only those scrips which I buy. And well the risk is completely yours. Shed off the fake assumption that shares will make ppl wealthy & rich overnight.. There is a good scrip to buy - Surya Roshni... buy it at about 44-45 Rs. & wait for minumum three months atleast. Keep a target of 30% returns and exit as soon as you achieve that target. See the market position today, if the market is low then only buy, but if it is very very high i.e. above 70 points then hold your shopping until the market is in the red. Surya Roshni is a steel company, it is in the mid-cap sector. The stock is undervalued at current prices. Two days ago the scrip had seen a 16% jump. But a correction is bound to come. Buy the scrip, don't panic if it slips below your purchase price... just hold, wait & watch. regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chirag 5 Report post Posted May 28, 2005 Cyber Cafe doesn't seem that good a proposition to me considering the penetration of PCs in homes in urban areas! Might be good for C Class Metros or even smaller! Wat say? Though i usually end up seeing loads of ppl at the cafe, even in my locality. But its usually in the nites when the speeds r low!

Dilbert 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2005 I feel that cyber cafes are not a good business proposition. The govt is hell bent on making communication cheaper for the end user, hence all the stake holders will be getting a lesser cut. OK one might argue that volumes will be the name of the game, but remember we are talking of a brick & mortar business model where real-estate is involved & that too in a commercial location. So this kind of limits an entrepreneur, I mean there is a boundary to it.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But if you combine it with Gaming Zone , selling of computer consumables(mobile phones also), gaming zone and a public telephone booth you definitely can make money... You can even offer telephone calls to US/Gulf at cheap rates using VOIP (Sify is already doing that).. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Space costs money, upfront as well as operational.. . Penetration of PCs in Urban India has increased manifold over the years, and installing games in a PC has become a child's play. Moreover as Govt is slashing ISD rates, VOIP technology becoming easily accesible to consumers...the margins in this are pretty thin. So this definitely does not sound like a profitable venture.....Whaddaya say??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
