Eskimos, Jack out-of-the-box, Groopic and Coffee in Lucknow…!

My dear Rodinhood,

The first Friday of 2014 – and I don’t have a poem for you :(. Chill I’ll make it up somehow!

So now that all of you are back at work and sober (I presume!) – bookmark The Best of 2013 (updated with the bestest of Alok & ASK).

From Alok’s bread basket:

Wanna sell ice to an Eskimo? Here’s how!

Couldn’t make it to BT MindRush?! Never mind – watch Alok’s session here!

Always share bad news…

And for those of you who were far away from emails, newsletters and stuff – here’s last time’s newsletter.

ASK Masala:

ASK is my fave section. I know I’m not allowed to have favourites. But I love going through the responses! So pls respond… we have something for everyone!!

Spencer is putting together a presentation on marketing tips for entrepreneurs in India and would like you to share yours’ too.

Should this rodinhooder convert his dental clinic into a family clinic? What do you think? Errr… he’s not a dentist – he’s a startup dude!

Mentorless… looking for a mentor for guidance…hmmm!

#trh dessert:

LUCKNOW ke rodinhooders…. aap ki khidmat mein pesh karte hain ek #CoffeeMeet – tashreef le aayiye janab…!

I’ve been digging out some of our most memorable pix of 2013 and am having a tough time deciding which one to share. The mompreneur in me wins today :). It’s a small reminder that the spirit of entrepreneurship within us starts very early. We just don’t know it! So please, please encourage youngsters to think different and “magnify solutions”, as Alok says.
