Courtesan
of King Canute tried to flatter him by saying :
" Sire
! Tide will stop rolling in , if only
you order it to do so "
King Canute
was a wise man and knew that laws of Nature cannot be countered , even by a
King
To drive
home this point , he sat on a chair on the sea-shore and ordered the tide to
stop
Sure enough
, tide chose to ignore his wishes and wet his feet ! Courtesan hid their faces !
Some people
in India are refusing to learn their lesson from what is happening all around
the World as far as E - Commerce is concerned
They are
asking the King ( fill in the name ! ) , to stop E Commerce in:
* Multi-Brand
Retail
* Local Kirana shops
* Medicines ( E Pharmacies )
* Transport
( Uber / Ola / Car Pooling /
Aggregation )
* Buyer / Seller online platforms for a
multitude of services
* Anything where current vested interests
feel threatened
Not
realizing that the following powerful forces ( working for E Commerce ) , are
unstoppable :
* 13 million Retailers of the country (
includes Kirana shops ) want to sell " More and Farther "
They want to be able to sell beyond 1 Km
of their physical location ( their current limitation )
Only way they can compete with their "
Neighboring Store ", is to sell
" On line "
Since most cannot afford to set up their
own web sites , they will join Amazon / Snapdeal / Flipkart etc
* Already some 100 companies have launched Mobile Wallets .
Before long , every bank / ISP / MSP / NBFC / Trade Association / Hotel Chain /
FMCG manufacturers etc , will launch its own Wallets
* Soon traffic in cities will become so bad
that it will render " Outdoor Shopping " impossible . People will
prefer to shop everything on-line
* Internet broadband will reach every nook and
corner of India , making E Com web sites accessible to millions of rural people
* By 2020 , every Indian will have a Smart
Phone connected to internet 24*7
* And by 2020 , at least some refrigerators
will start replenishing on their own, by
placing orders on most competitive online E
Com web sites !
Internet of Things ( IoT )
Internet of Things ( IoT )
* Around the same time , Google / Amazon / eBay
etc will start their own " Drone
based " deliveries in 2 hours !
* Not to be outdone , many online E Com
platforms ( web sites ) will come forward
and install in your kitchen , a 3D printer
, through which , they will deliver any
product
that your refrigerator wants replenished
!
* Holograms will enable you to try out in the
comfort of your homes , any item of
personal wear ! So , why trudge to a physical store ?
Hiding your
head in the sand is no way to avoid the incoming storm !
Writing is
on the Wall ! Those who refuse to swim with the current are
bound to sink !

Nostradamus but you may still want to look up my forecasts on,
