Respected Sir My Son secured 80% in +2 (CBSE Board) and also got 82 percentile in IIT JEE Mains. We belong to Coimbatore. He is interested in CSC and want to develop his skills in Programming.Now my son got B.E CSC in Saveetha Engineering College, Affiliated to Anna University, Chennai. Saveetha Engineering is offering mandatory NPTEL/SWAYM from the III year . Kindly advice him for his future career with the extra skill courses.

Ans: Please note, (1) Saveetha Engineering College is a Reputed College & your Son can go ahead with it (2) It is good, NPTEL / SWAYAM are mandatory which I have recommended in some of my answers (please go through my answers below). These will definitely be helpful to your Son to upgrade the skills with Certifications apart from other platforms like Coursera, Linkedin etc. (3) After your son joins the college, if he has any doubts / needs clarifications including how to prepare for his Campus Recruitment in his 4th year, please ask me. All the BEST for your Son's Bright Future.

My son is in class 11th. He scored 84.6% in his cbse class 10th exams. He scored 99/100 in maths and 74/100 in science. He has chosen PCM with English and physical education. He is interested in computers and wants to become software engineer.what other possible career options will be good for him? He is introvert and takes time to mix with people . Please suggest the roadmap and best coaching options also. Will it be ok to join the online coaching classes for JEE in this year ? Or after completing 12th class, should he take a drop for coaching?
Ans: Please note, (1) Taking a drop after 12th is not advisable. (2) As he is good in Maths, it is better to join at least Online JEE Classes (Allen or AhaGuru) if you are not able to afford for offline regular classes (3) He has to further improve in his Science (4) As he is introvert and interested in Computers / Software, Computer Science would be more suitable for him (5) However, to get admission into any reputed college (anywhere in India), he should score a decent Percentile / Rank in Competitive Exams. (6) Please prepare him for other competitive exams also such as your State Engineering Entrance Exams, COMEDK, SRMJEE, VITEEE, & also other Private Engineering Colleges' Entrance Exams (7) He should appear minimum 5-7 Entrance Exams to have more options open to choose the best one for him. (8) Please go through one of my answers to know about the practical preparation strategies for Entrance Exams. All the BEST for your Son's Bright Future.

Vikas Sir, Prefer VIT-AP, followed by KIIT. As suggested always, your daughter should keep upgrading her skills from 1st year itself till last year (campus recruitment) through NPTEL, Internshala, Coursera, LinkedIn etc. and / or any other online platforms for the same, recommended by her college faculties. All the BEST for your Daughter's Bright Future Sir.

Sir, I have got your contact from RediffGurus. I approach you to guide me in my present situation. I have more than 30 years experience in export sales and also import procurement. Have been successful in developing new export markets and also importing quality material from abroad at competitive prices. All these activities have been under employment only, Where employers earned a lot, and brought me only wah wah, shabash, but no financial gains. Now I am retired, but still quite active mentally and physically. I have an idea which if backed with right financial background, can be a money spinner . The idea is to deal in metal import export trading. I can source international standard quality copper, aluminium, stainless steel etc., from China and other countries at 20 to 30% below market price. These can be sold to hungry Indian buyers here. I can assure, subject to investment, a profit of approx. Rs. 5 to 10 crore in first year itself. And of course a huge, unlimited market exists for these metals in vast Africa, where I have travelled many times and understand how business is conducted there . Now may I request you to tell me if it is possible to get a silent investor. For security purpose, I am ready to conduct entire business in investor's or his company's name, provided my interests are safe. Wahaj Nuri.
Ans: Dear Wahaj,

Your proposition is definitely sounding interesting, but as you have laid your idea and thoughts randomly here, it is not translating into a viable business. Have you prepared a comprehensive Business Plan? Have you worked on Business Frame work?
I would suggest to complete your offerings on papers, write/overwrite/correct/cut/revise and then bring a conclusive business proposition which none can refuse.
Regards

Hi Nripen Sir, I am started my own market research(Secondary Research) firm bootstrapped without team and working on it. I want to know how to do customer or client acquisition. I have 10 years of market research experience. I am sole person to handle this. Also, I want to know do i need investment for this type of firms.
Ans: Let me congratulate you first, it is an excellent initiative you have taken, there are several firms in Market Research but there is always a demand for a genuine data driven research firm.
Initially you do not need a big team, you can handle solo, and when you require first go for management undergraduates as interns.
If you work smart client acquisition and retention will be really easy and smooth you can go step by step:
Create a one-page professional website, keep your clients’ segment in view and develop the content accordingly. Define methodology and tools in such a way that potential clients should relate immediately with their requirements. Don’t write lengthy content. Be precise be crisp.
Use business email id only.
Get very smart stationary printed, letterheads over 100 GSM, nice envelops, attractive business cards etc.
Search the websites where startups are registered such as startup India, start in up, istart etc., you will find a lot of startups who are in Launch phase or in Growth Phase, both look for secondary market research.
Exporters can be your potential clients.
Tourist planners.
Medical startups.
You have huge market for your service, start from here and you may ask time to time for further steps.
All the best
