Lets buy bags from cheap production centers such as China and sell them in India

And how will we market them?

We will build a website!

--

The problem is that most people out there (and KK is surely far advanced than most already) feel that creating a website is equivalent to sales and recognition. Its like in BSchool, whenever the prof asked, "Ok, so how will the product sell?" the answer was invariably almost always "we will advertise"

Doesnt work! Well, mostly!]]></description>
