Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Dear Shri Singh ,


Along with my earlier email ( Oct 13 ) , I had attached , a CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK for a new MakeInIndia page called :

" Indian Companies Registration " page ( Attachment B )

Now for that page , attached find a proposed FORM  DESIGN , for your consideration

After your approval ( with whatever changes that you might desire ), we would be happy to help out with necessary DATABASE  STRUCTURE , if required


You will notice that :

>     I have designed a COMMON form , for both , Indian and Foreign Companies

>    To motivate Corporate to fill in the minimum MANDATORY sections , many sections are marked " OPTIONAL " ( these can be rearranged in two separate groups )


If implemented quickly , this would enable ,


>    MakeInIndia to emerge in course of time , as a comprehensive SEARCH ENGINE for both , Foreign and Indian Companies to find each other

>   DIPP officers / Indian Ambassadors / Consul Generals / Trade Commissioners , to daily look up a SUMMARY of Section I ( thru ADMIN section on MakeInIndia web site ) and find out ,
  
     " WHO ( Which Foreign Company ) needs WHAT kind of help from DIPP "

Then , make those lightening phone calls , saying :

" We have noted your requirements and this is how we propose to help "  !

I have no doubt that if quickly implemented , such a " Make-Over / Re-incarnation " of MakeInIndia will vastly improve India's rank on " Ease of Doing Business "

Please feel free to phone me ( 0-98,67,55,08,08 ) for any clarification / question / help

with regards ,

Dear Mr Singh ,


Following is for your consideration


*  "  DATABASE  OF  INDIAN  COMPANIES "


    You may consider providing such a link on MakeInIndia web site ( right at the top , on every page )

    Any visitor , clicking on that link will see a page , as per Attachment A

    Since this is a plain text document , it should take less than a day to upload


*  "  INDIAN  COMPANIES REGISTRATION "


    You may consider providing such a link on MakeInIndia web site

    Any executive ( of an Indian Company ) clicking on that link , will see a page as per Attachment B

    Such registrations will help MakeInIndia to gradually build-up a comprehensive database of lakhs of Indian

    Companies

    In course of time , this database can be made " searchable " by Foreign visitors

If need be , my technical team would be happy to help design the necessary DATABASE STRUCTURE , for this

page

Dear  Team / MakeInIndia,



Thank you for your prompt response


I await the feedback from Shri Singh


While on the subject , you may wish to consider :


>  On every page of MakeInIndia web site , providing some counters ( such as HISTAT / LIVE TRAFFIC FEED etc , - the kind you find on B2B ) , to give some idea of the traffic . These are  FREE  and take only a few minutes to install


Since MakeInIndia's primary target is Foreign Companies ,"  Live Traffic Feed   " will show you the countries from which your visitors are arriving


>  In fact , it is possible to install separate counters on each page , which show you who / how many visitors visited that particular page ( somewhat like Google Analytics )


>  Using some API ( from Google Analytics ? ) , you may even show to all the visitors , how many minutes did these visitors spend on any particular page , on an average. This will tell you what information , your visitors are MOST interested in

>  One feature which I consider of UTMOST importance , is a 24 hour LIVE CHAT facility with your visitors ( something which Govt of India can easily afford and which will go a long way in establishing a VERY PERSONAL and COMMITTED relationship with your visitors )

>  You may also wish to consider installing a CHAT ROOM ( monitored by ADMIN ) , where visitors can ask questions / share their site-experiences and generally form a COMMUNITY

I have no doubt , implementing above-mentioned features will make a user-friendly MakeInIndia web site

FW: INVITING 8 MILLION FOREIGN COMPANIES ?


Shri Amitabh Kant
Secretary - DIPP
Ministry of Commerce
-------------------------------

Dear  Shri  Kant ,

Imagine the following scenario :

*   Mr  Yamaoka - VP , Strategic Planning - Kyocera (Kyoto / Japan ) visits  MakeInIndia  website to look up investment opportunities in India for Solar Power Generation equipment manufacturing.

*   Having been convinced , he clicks on link,
           " Database of Indian Companies "
  which takes him to.... www.B2BmessageBlaster.com ( B2B )

*   On  B2B , he selects 23 Indian Companies as potential partners for a JV , and sends out a message (" We would like to talk to you for an investment " ) , using B2B messaging service


*   Within ONE HOUR , Mr Yamaoka gets a phone call from Mr Vikas Swarup -Indian Consul General , posted in Osaka , offering any help that Kyocera may need for ,

    >   Contacting other suitable Indian Companies

    >   Getting additional info ( CRISIL rating / Annual Reports ) about Companies short-listed by him
        
   >   Obtaining various permissions ( from Central and  State Govts ) to implement , Kyocera's  Make In India  project


Will that ,

>    leave Mr Yamaoka immensely impressed with the speed of response  from the local Indian Consul General  ?
     
>    Convince him that India is the best place to invest  ?

>    possibly , raise India's rank in World Bank's " Ease of Doing Business " from 134 to 13  ?
      - overtaking Colombia / Rwanda but still behind Korea/
      Malaysia  ?


Absolutely !


Is this possible  ?

Certainly


Here is how  :

*    As soon as Mr Yamaoka sends out ( using B2B messaging service ) , his " We are interested " message to those 23 Indian Companies , B2B server will send an Email to Mr Vikas Swarup , providing him with,

        >   Contact Details of Mr Yamaoka

        >   Contact Details of those 23 Indian Companies

        >   Full Message Text


That will enable Mr Swarup to pro-actively contact Mr Yamaoka , within  ONE HOUR  !

*   Simultaneously , B2B server will send a copy of that email to a designated Executive in DIPP , for sending out his own , " May We Help You ? " email to Mr Yamaoka
   

       

*    B2B will design and launch , a mobile App , " MakeInIndia " ,
for DIPP officers / Indian Ambassadors / Consul Generals / Trade
 Commissioners ,  to follow-up the progress of each and every  ,
" We are Interested " message , sent to Indian Companies , by
Foreign Investors , from B2B web site

       
Our Prime Minister , Shri Narendra Modi firmly believes that the 21st Century belongs to India, given its 3D ( Democracy  / Demography  /  Demand )

Your acceptance of my proposal will speed up India's arrival

Dear Shri Kant


MakeInIndia  web site is, indeed , an innovative initiative


But how  to get 8 MILLION Foreign Companies to visit this site  ?

And which 8 MILLION foreign companies  ?

And how to send across this invitation  ?


Here is my suggestion :


*  On........ www.B2BmessageBlaster.com....., we have an online database of 8,000 + International Chambers of Commerce , located in 5,332 cities around the World

*  It would be reasonable to assume that , on an average , each of these Chambers , has approx 1,000 firms as their MEMBERS

*  That adds up to  8,000,000  Member Firms

* After REGISTERING  DIPP  on B2B (  Nature of Organization = " Government Depts / Agencies / Statutory Bodies "  ) ,  Blast  following message ( suitably modified , as deemed necessary ) , to these 8,000 + Chambers

That should take , no more than 2 hours !

I am , indeed thankful to your team for appreciating the " VALUE  ADDITION " that , a linkage to B2B web site can bring to MakeInIndia

At the same time , I realize that , it is not easy to change the established mindset / overcome past prejudices

But , it is only , a " OUT-OF-THE-BOX " thinking that can lift India into a higher orbit

I do hope , you will succeed in convincing the DIPP officers to host , " DATABASE OF INDIAN COMPANIES " page on MakeInIndia web site
