PROTOCOLS FOR THE POOR

without comments

Let us suggest the way forward when TMI is on stream and set to startup the rural poor.

1……Realistically in a village setting of 300 only 30 would be interested enough to fully engage (this is different than saying all would like to try out the system )…..even 10 would be sufficient…They in practice form the local” mastermind “group to encourage one another.
2….10 would be sufficient because the ultimate selling is to western markets….this means if , initially, revenue is only £100 per month – rupees 11,000( a low figure by western standards ) by local standards it will make a difference ,and as the revenue increases it would have a cascading effect…
3.A realistic way to start the first pilot project would be for an experienced student to help
by leading the, “on the fly” workshops ..using the enterprise education work sheets supplied online from TMI ….this until the local mastermind group takes over the project with the responsibility to extend the involvement to as many as possible….
4.. The use of internet enabled mobiles / or the £100 computers/ or initially just mobiles
would be sufficient technology to start the project………..more on using mobiles alone in a future blog…….
