Possibilities of retail industry in India
Retailer is any person/organization instrumental in reaching the goods or merchandise or services to the end users. Retailer is a must and cannot be eliminated. Retailing involves all activities incidental to selling to ultimate consumer for their personnel family and household use.
India's retail industry is the second largest sector, after agriculture, which provides employment. According to Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (ASSOCHAM), the retail sector will create 50,000 jobs in next few years.
The Indian retailing industry is becoming intensely competitive, as more and more payers are Vying for the same set of customers. The major retail players are Pantaloon Retail, Shoppers Stop, Reliance, etc.., Retailing is one of the biggest sectors and it is witnessing revolution in India. The new entrant in retailing in India signifies the beginning of retail revolution.
According to AT Kearney, The Windows of Opportunity shows that Retailing in India was at opening stage in 1995 and now it is in peaking stage in 2006. India's retail market is expected to grow tremendously in next few years. India shows US$330 billion retail market that is expected to grow 10% a year, with modern retailing just beginning. India ranks first in 2005. In fact, in 2005 and 2006, India is the most compelling opportunity for retailers, because now India is in peaking stage.
There are two types of Retailing in India, i.e. Unorganized Retailing and Organized Retailing.
Unorganized retailing in India:-
In India, the most of the retail sector is unorganized. In India, the retail business contributes around 11 percent of GDP. Of this, the organized retail sector accounts only for about 3 percent share, and the remaining share is contributed by the unorganized sector. The main challenge facing the organized sector is the competition from unorganized sector. Unorganized retailing has been there in India for centuries, theses are named as mom-pop stores. The main advantage in unorganized retailing is consumer familiarity that runs from generation to generation. It is a low cost structure; they are mostly operated by owners, have very low real estate and labor costs and have low taxes to pay.
Organized retailing in India:-
In late 1990's the retail sector has witnessed a level of transformation. Retailing is being perceived as a beginner and as an attractive commercial business for organized business i.e. the pure retailer is starting to emerge now. Organized retail business in India is very small but has tremendous scope. The total in 2005 stood at $225 billion, accounting for about 11% of GDP. In this total market, the organized retail accounts for only $8 billion of total revenue. According to A T Kearney, the organized retailing is expected to be more than $23 billion revenue by 2010.
In organized retailing will grow faster than unorganized sector and the growth speed will be responsible for its high market share, which is expected to be $ 17 billion by 2010-11. Retailing will show good prospects in cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai, kolkata, Banglore and Kanpur. After Dubai, Singapore and Hong Kong, In India Delhi will be the next big retail destination, According to Confederation of Indian Industries whose findings have shown that Delhi has the good resources and good conditions for the retail sector. Out of the total earnings of the Government of Delhi Rs 11,000crore, Rs 6,500crore is achieved from the retail sector.
Present Indian Scenario:-
• Unorganized market: Rs. 583,000crores
• Organized market: Rs.5, 000crores
• Over 4,000 new modern Outlets in the last 3 years.
• Over 5,000,000 sq. ft. of mall space under development.
• The top 3 modern retailers control over 750,000 sq. ft. of retail space.
• Over 400,000 shoppers walk through their doors every week.
Growth drivers in India for retail sector:-
• Rising incomes and improvements in infrastructure are enlarging consumer markets and accelerating the convergence of consumer tastes.
• Liberalization of the Indian economy.
• Increase in spending Percapita Income.
• Advent of dual income families also helps in the growth of retail sector.
• Shift in consumer demand to foreign brands like McDonalds, Sony, Panasonic, etc.
• Consumer preference for shopping in new environs.
• The Internet revolution is making the Indian consumer more accessible to the growing influences of domestic and foreign retail chains. Reach of satellite T.V. channels is helping in creating awareness about global products for local markets.
• About 47% of India's population is under the age of 20; and this will increase to 55% by 2015. This young population, which is technology-savvy, watch more than 50 TV satellite channels, and display the highest propensity to spend, will immensely contribute to the growth of the retail sector in the country.
• Availability of quality real estate and mall management practices.
• Foreign companies' attraction to India is the billion-plus population.

Many agencies have estimated differently about the size of organized retail market in 2010. The one thing that is common amongst these estimates is that Indian organized retail market will be very big in 2010. The status of the retail industry will depend mostly on external factors like Government regulations and policies and real estate prices, besides the activities of retailers and demands of the customers also show impact on retail industry. As the retail market place changes shape and competition increases, the potential for improving retail productivity and cutting costs is likely to decrease. Therefore it is important for retailers to secure a distinctive position in the market place based on values relationships or experience. Finally it is important to note that these strategies are not strictly independent of each other; value is function of not just price quality and service but can also be enhanced by personalization and offering a memorable experience

Why did the stock market crash?
Was it inevitable?
When the global economy has been cooling down, and the financial sector in particular has been heading from one cold shower to the next, it was inevitable that stock markets around the world would start catching the chill.
The way in which Asian stock prices responded last week to the fall of the Dow Jones and Nasdaq indices by 4 per cent, hitting a 10-month low, has also punctured a hole in the decoupling argument (which said Asia would not be hit by an America-based problem) that had become fashionable in recent weeks.
Investors around the world have taken note of the fact that the broad-based S&P 500 index is at a 16-month low, along with European stocks. And investors seem to have little faith in the Bush rescue plan's ability to ward off a recession in the US. The Fed will almost certainly respond with sharp cuts in interest rates towards the end of the month, but the market has already discounted for that.
Indian markets worst hit
It is interesting that Indian markets were hit the most, among all Asian markets. This may have been because the correction in the overheated Chinese stock market began some weeks ago. Investors will also have noticed that the third-quarter corporate numbers show significant deceleration in both sales and profit growth, when compared to the same quarter a year earlier.
When coupled with the data showing that the export target for the year will be missed by a wide margin, and that the industrial sector has suffered a sharp slowdown, it was inevitable that stock prices would have to come off their dizzy highs.
What began with profit-booking and unwinding of long positions cascaded on Friday into a 3.5 per cent decline in the Sensex. Foreign institutional investors had moved to the sidelines in the secondary markets even earlier, and FIIs have been net sellers to the tune of Rs 2,200 crore (Rs 22 billion) in January. Also relevant was the Reliance Power IPO, which pulled in a record amount of application money (Rs 1,15,000 crore (Rs 1,150 billion)). Even if a third or a fourth of that was being garnered by sale of stocks, it is a large enough sum for the market to go into correction mode.
There is no doubt that valuations had become expensive. Even after the 10 per cent correction from the market's peak, the Sensex trades at a trailing P/E multiple of 24.5, which is not cheap in anyone's book.
Yet, buying may soon begin
A global liquidity surplus had certainly contributed to momentum buying. The question is whether the correction that has occurred so far is enough for fresh buying to emerge, or whether a further fall is required before value-based buying starts.
On a forward basis, the Sensex trades at an FY09 estimated P/E of 18. The floor therefore would probably be a Sensex level of 17,000-odd -- which would mean wiping out the gains of the past three months, no more. Provided the general economic and corporate news does not get worse than has already been anticipated, fresh buying cannot be very far away.
Indian stocks witnessed their second-biggest fall ever on Monday.
Is everything okay with the economy?
The fundamentals of the Indian economy are still very strong. Some analysts say that business environment is good, but corporate earnings are not as good as they wree last year.
Will foreign investors sell more stocks?
Market expectations are that foreign investors would continue to sell.
With FIIs turning sellers on the domestic bourses, it is likely that domestic mutual funds might step in and buy equity thereby preventing a further fall. However, it remains to be seen if this would happen.
What should traders do now?
"If you have the money it's a great time to buy into this market," said Ambareesh Baliga of Karvy Stock Broking on NDTV Profit. There is no fundamental reason for this massive fall in the market and its been all about margin calls, he added.
Given the rise in volatility, it may not be advisable to trade in stocks that lack liquidity. Trading in stocks, which do not find presence in the derivatives segment may be dangerous.
The reason is simple: derivatives give you an option to hedge your position, limiting your losses, in case the market goes against you.
Keep your trading positions about 30 per cent lower than what you can actually afford. This would greatly help in avoiding distress sale in case the regulators slap additional margins. For an investor, leveraged positions are completely avoidable.

Creating Your Website for Google AdSense
Before you even begin your site, make sure you've come up with a topic that you feel you know plenty about. That way it will be easiest to write a lot of content.
The more content you have, the better chance you have getting accepted into the program. Also, the more content, the greater the earning potential. AdSense is nothing but a numbers game. If you want to make a lot of money, prepare to write a lot of content.
Now let's talk about building your website. There are two ways you can approach this:
1) Do it yourself Method
2) Hire Professionals to design your website
1. The Do It Yourself Method
If you use the Do It Yourself Method, you will have to go and register a domain name (yoursite.com) and then sign up for a web host and build your pages. You can either learn HTML or buy some kind of web editor like Microsoft FrontPage to build your pages. That's the method I used to build this site.
Averaging between $10 and $15 per month, the Do It Yourself Method is usually the most cost friendly of the two but you are mostly on your own in terms of learning how to create your web pages and adding the AdSense code to your site.
Web hosts are generally there to house your site. They don't specialize in helping you market and optimize your site for the search engines to help you get traffic. So don't expect a lot from them in terms of helping you market your site.
This is not necessarily a bad thing. I had to learn how to build this site on my own and it wasn't very difficult.
I bought Microsoft FrontPage and in about a day or two my site was up and running. So if you don't mind learning, it's definitely doable. In fact, most people use the Do It Yourself Method to build their websites. The 2nd method below is fairly new in comparison.
Creating your pages is as simple as entering text into form fields and using the user-friendly editor to add text, create links, and add pictures and more. Some Designing and Development software’s are needed to be installed before you being on your own. You simply select a template you want to use and your site is built in seconds...literally.
What's even better is that you will have access to tons of free guides that show you how to optimize your site for the popular search engines so you can get as much free traffic as possible.
2. Hire Professionals to design your website
This is very easy and best way to get your website ready. We hired professionals to design our site and now it earns decent income every month within a year of launching it. Our Earlier Site took nearly two years to get stable income from old site. It took me over 2 years to earn that kind of AdSense income with this site using the do-it-yourself method.
Today, the site continues to earn money from AdSense yet I have no products to sell. I'm simply offering information on a topic I know a about and our professional designers showed me how to rank high in the search engines for various keyword phrases. Over 90% of traffic comes from the free search engines.
The reason this method is more recommended from the other do-it-yourself hosts is that first it provides you all the web page building and marketing help all in one place. Your domain registration, web hosting and marketing help come with the reasonable price.
Remember, without traffic, you won't make any money with AdSense. That's why having a professional designer is so important. Keep in mind, a regular Do It Yourself host does NOT help you with search engine rankings and traffic.
I highly recommend hiring a professional designer especially if you plan on building a site specifically to earn money from AdSense. It is the kind of host that stands for everything AdSense is about -- rewarding website owners for building an abundance of useful content.
Be sure to also take a peek at all the successful websites created by mostly beginners who have never created a site before.

How Much Can I Earn With Google AdSense?
Google does not disclose exactly how much you'll earn per ad that is clicked. The commission you receive per click depends on how much advertisers are paying Google for the particular ad. You will earn a share of that amount. I've heard of earnings anywhere from 2 cents to $15 per click.
So it is logical to believe that keyword phrases like debt free, employment, make money, mp3, sex, etc. will earn you more per click since these are highly competitive keywords that are searched for quite a bit on the web. Advertisers generally pay more for popular terms because they are searched for more.
Even though Google will not reveal how much you are earning for each ad that is clicked from your site, you can still login to your account at any time and see the total amount of revenue you've generated that day, week, month, year, etc.
For example, if you see that you've made $12.60 today from 9 clicks then you can calculate that your average click-thru commission was $1.40 per click. That's as detailed as their stats will get. Also remember, that's only an average. You won't know how much each specific ad brought in.
The amount you'll earn also depends largely on the amount of targeted traffic you receive to your own site, how well the ads match your audience's interests, the placement of the ads on your pages, and of course the amount you receive per click.
Ideally, you should create a site on a topic you know a lot about. That way you'll have a much easier time creating a generous amount of content on that subject.

Do you Know Google Is Not Only a Search Engine. It’s a Money Making Machine So if you are one of those people that like the idea of earning a few extra bucks, this is an excellent way to earn your money.
Even if you earned as little as $10 in a month, it would be more than likely cover some or all of the costs for your web site. Perhaps you are simply looking for ways to add additional revenue to your website, and then it's perfect for that situation too.
This program is getting so popular that people are creating websites just to display the ads and profit from Google's AdSense alone.
There is no such thing as “easy money" because you still have to create your own website and bring in traffic to your website in order to make good money with this program.
I certainly don't want to make it sound like you get something for doing absolutely nothing. There's no such thing. However, I've got to say that AdSense is probably the closest you'll ever come to fast money on the Internet -- especially if you already have a website that gets a good amount of traffic.
What's even better...the program is completely free. You can also use it on multiple websites and there is no limit to the amount you can earn. I know what you're probably thinking..."Is Google Crazy?" and "What's the catch here? Why would Google just give away money advertisers are paying them?"
The answer... Because Google is very smart. Now that you understand how AdSense works, I can see that it's a win-win situation for everyone involved, and the bottom line benefits Google. Let me explain...
Since the advertiser's ads are now being displayed on more web sites all over the internet (instead of just Google's site), they are getting much more exposure. More exposure means more clicks and even more traffic for their site over a shorter period of time.
This is good news for Google because the more traffic the advertisers receive, the faster their advertising funds are used up.
Remember, they get charged every time their site gets a visit; and of course, it is Google's hope that they'll continue to keep funneling more money into their account for more ad exposure.
What an ingenious way for Google to increase the amount of money they earn from advertisers while building loyalty with website owners (like us) who are now getting paid to help them advertise.
Of course, I'd expect nothing less from the most popular search engine on the web.

Earn from Affiliate programes
An affiliate program, also known as "referral", "associate" or "partner" program, allows web site owners to earn commissions from their web site by referring people to products and services. If you don't have a product of your own to sell, you can join affiliate programs to bring in additional revenue to your site.
Let's say your site is about home improvement and you offer tips on various household projects, tools, etc. You would join affiliate programs from hardware companies and refer your visitors to their products from your own website.
How Do Affiliate Programs Work?
Most affiliate programs are free to join and easy to setup. The company will usually provide you with a special link to use that contain a tracking code inside it. Any time you send your visitors to the company's web site, you'll send them via the link so all your orders can be tracked and identified.
For example, let's say Home Depot has an affiliate program. Once you join, they may instruct you to send your visitors to a link that looks something like this: http://www.homebasedonlinejobs.com
The "ID5004" is the part that is tracked by Home Depot. Any time someone goes to their site via this particular link and places an order, it is tracked back to you. Then you earn commission for that sale.
How Much Can I Earn?
How much you earn per sale depends on the company's affiliate program model. Many programs pay a percentage of the total sale. Some will offer a fixed dollar amount ($50 per sale, for example).
The Big Myth!
Unfortunately, many people believe since many affiliate programs are free and that they are given a website, it will be much easier to make money than it would if they had to market their own product.
Not true at all.
Even if you are involved in an affiliate program, it's very important that you develop your OWN site with a clear and solid theme. Then integrate related affiliate programs into your site. So if your site is about gardening, you would find companies that sell products related to what your visitors are interested in: gardening tools and furniture, lawn care, etc.
It's important to make sure your own site is not just pages full of links to the company you're affiliated with. You should have your own unique and well-organized content throughout your site. Aim for at least 20 pages of ORIGINAL content and prepare to keep building.
Staying with the Home Depot example, you could register the domain name, HouseHoldMistakes.com and develop a guide for common mistakes made when repairing household items.
Throughout that site you could make recommendations for various Home Depot products and earn commissions. The key is to join programs and recommend products and services that naturally compliment the theme of your web site.
Something to Remember
One thing you should keep in mind is that you should only join affiliate programs that relate to your website. If your site is about home employment, it makes no sense to advertise jewelry on it. People are coming to your site to look for jobs, not diamonds.
Although it's tempting to join any and every affiliate program that sounds lucrative, more is not always better. You could do quite well simply promoting one or two programs if they are a good fit for your site's audience and you present the products/services well.
Plastering banner ads all over your site is not a good way to earn money. Recommendations through useful editorial content are the best way to get the sale.
Another Example . . .
Let's say you have a web site about child safety and you're writing an article about burglar alarms. You belong to an affiliate program that pays you $100 for every burglar alarm you sell. At the end of the article, you could include a recommendation for a burglar alarm system, and it's important to note that the recommendation shouldn't sound like an advertisement. It would just be a logical statement that flows with the rest of the article. For example: One of the premiere burglar systems on the market is Burglar Alarm XYZ. We use it in our home and it has always given us top-notch performance. Click here for more information.
And of course when the visitor "clicks here" they're taken to the company site via your unique affiliate web site address so you receive the commission if that person orders a product.
See how the recommendation just wraps up the article? It's not a blatant advertisement that yells for the visitor to BUY NOW!!!!! Notice also that the recommendation includes a personal testimonial. That's a great touch. If you can tell your visitors that you've used a product and can provide feedback about it, which will add to your credibility.
First the article provides general, useful information about burglar alarms and then ends with a solid recommendation for a particular product that the web site owner endorses. Build a Site With Lots of Content Web sites that do the best with affiliate programs contain lots and lots of useful content that's updated often and has its own developed theme with a targeted audience.
Don't ever waste your time joining a couple of affiliate programs and then building a one or two-page web site to promote the products. Build a web site with a clear, concise theme that is supported by tons of articles and information on your topic.
You need to build credibility to encourage people to respect your recommendations. It's difficult to do that with a small site. One good way to build this credibility is by providing useful articles and helpful resources that gives your visitors confidence that you know what you're talking about.
You want them to feel comfortable taking your advice. Remember they can't see or talk to you so all they have to go on is the information you provide on your site -- so make it good!
Also remember, there is no such thing as too much information. The more knowledge you can fill them with, the greater chance they'll keep coming back to your site again and again.
This is another reason you should always choose a topic you are truly interested in. The more you know about a subject, the easier it will be to add content and keep your site updated.
Most people will not buy on the first exposure. They need to see the product more than once. If your site is lacking content, what reason would your visitors have to return again?
Updated, quality content encourages visitors to keep coming back for more. The more they're exposed to what you have to offer, the greater the chance they'll decide to purchase something based upon your recommendation.
Only Promote High Quality Products. Don’t hurt your web reputation by referring less-than-satisfying products and services. There are plenty of good products out there for you to offer. Don’t waste your time on the junk.
If you’re looking for long-term success out here, start off on the right foot and only refer high quality products to your visitors. If you do this, chances are they'll return to your site and respect your recommendations.

When you go to Google and do any search then you can see some ads on the right hand side. These are paid ads i.e. the advertiser pays to google for that ad. Now with adsense even you can show those ads on your page and get paid by google a fraction of what it gets.
How Much Can I Earn ?
No one knows for sure and it depends upon a lot of things. Like how much traffic your site gets. How much the advertisers pay google for the advertisements and so on. Anyway it is reported that some people earn as much as 0.5$ per click. Great ??
What Will I Have To Spend
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING !!!!!!!!. Google does not charge anything for the service and there are a lot of free hosts out there where you can put up your site. However it is essential that you confirm to Google's rules to be accepted. This site is built to help you achieve that only.
That Is Too Good To Be True !
Yes it is too good but it is true. Look at this site for example. Every time you click on any of these ads I earn. Every time you do a search in the google search boxes and click an ad, I earn. And I earn a lot, else I will not spend such a lot of time maintaining this site.

The Highest Paying jobs
Let's face it. Most people go to work because they need money, not because they love going to work. And for many of these people, they don't even care what they are doing just so that they make the most money possible. For those of you who fall into this category, what follows is a list of some of the more higher paying jobs for college and non college folks. Hopefully, you'll find something that pays you what you're looking for.
For those of you who don't have a college degree, don't fret, There are actually some pretty high paying jobs out there that don't require you to have a formal education.
If you're interested in cars and know your way around the insides of one, you may want to consider becoming an auto mechanic. This job pays an average of about $14.71 per hour depending on where you live of course. That's well over $550 for a 40 hour work week. Just plan on going home good and dirty each night.
If you're not good with fixing cars but are great at driving them, you might want to consider becoming a truck driver. You average truck driver makes about $15.97 per hour. One good thing about the job is that you're pretty much on your own for the day and don't have to worry about your boss being all over you from 9 to 5.
Believe it or not, one of the higher paying jobs that don't require a college degree is that of a police officer. The average cop makes about $22.00 per hour.

One of the most common jobs today, especially with the advances in technology, is the job of computer programmer. The average computer programmer makes about $23.19 per hour and this is actually one of the lower paid college required jobs. That's probably because of the glut of programmers on the market.
Of course if you really want to get technical and make even more money, you can become an engineer, of which there are many kinds such as electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, chemical engineers, civil engineers and on and on. The average engineer makes $33.50 per hour. That's well over $1300 a week or over $65,000 a year. Not too shabby.
But if you're really looking for big bucks and have 20-20 vision, then maybe you'd like to become an airline pilot. Don't laugh. Airline pilots make an average of $95.80 per hour.

Part Time Job From Home
More and more people are having to get a part time job. For some inflation is the reason and for others additions to the family mean the need for extra income is crucial. The question then is do you go for a $6 an hour job at a fast food place or do you look for opportunities to work from home and have time with your kids. The internet has opened up a whole new world where parents can actually stay at home and work and still have time to care for their kids.
Many work from home jobs allow you to work your own hours. And many internet based businesses allow you to be your own boss. But it isn't as easy as many sites make out. Building a solid income from home takes time, patience and perseverance.
Work from home jobs and businesses are becoming more and more prevalent. And online businesses are on the rise. Every day more and more men and women decide to create their own work at home business. The problem is that 90% of these businesses fail. And the reason that they fail is that most online business opportunities have fantastic sales letters that promise the world but only offer outdated methods of making money.
Here is a short list of absolute musts for building a profitable online business.
If you want to truly own and run your own internet cash machine, you must treat it like a real business. Decide on one online venture, create a marketing plan, set a budget and stick to it. If you do just this you will be ahead of 90 percent of the population.
1) Pick an opportunity and product line that actually makes sense to you. Choose something that actually helps others. Remember people go online to find information not to buy. Help them solve a problem and the rest will follow.
2) If they have a set marketing plan, follow it to the letter. They have probably done all the research and tested which ads pulled so there is no need to reinvent the wheel. Don't prove how "smart" you are. The most profitable online marketers are ones who know how to find a proven system and use it daily.
3) Dedicate a specific time each day to market your products. This includes writing and submitting articles, writing in your blog, social networking, press releases and more. Choose four marketing tools and use them consistently.
4) Determine a pre-set percentage of your profits that will be used for advertising expenses.
5) Delegate a portion of this work to others and devote yourself to your main job - marketing your product and creating new products.
6) Set a timer and plan a specific amount of time to work on each task. Do not answer the phones, check emails or check your sales while you accomplish these short term goals.
7) Talk to your accountant about whether an S, C or LLC is appropriate. You want to make sure that you get to keep as much of your profits as possible. Also ask what expenses are deductible. You can deduct part of your home as a home office, as well as many of your supplies and even some travel expenses. Part of your profits come from money that you generate and the rest comes from what you are able to save. So be diligent.
8) Also set time to relax and kick back. In order to keep your business fun and to maintain your passion, you must strike a balance between work and play. Working from home can be lonely if you do not plan to include social time into your week.
Make a definite intention to treat this not like a part time job but as a true full time business. Have set hours when you work at home. Forget the work from home in your pajamas mentality. Getting dressed puts you in a more business like mentality. When you get up in the morning and before you go to sleep at night have an intention of what you wish to accomplish. Develop a passion for your products and pass that enthusiasm on to your customers
