Walmart’s value proposition is “We save people money so they can live better”. On the other hand, Costco’s value proposition is “All-in-one convenience and everyday affordability”.

Our Metro Society!


Life in metro; for most of us is becoming unsocial day by day. Open up news paper in the morning; you sure to find some news of crime or nuisance done by anti-socials. We are used to it. But the story of family suicide hitting the headlines; may still surprise you! These are the acts committed by un-socials. Modern life and society robbed us the community culture long back; iota of it still used to exist in the form of religious celebrations like Holi, Diwali or Dusherra. Off late ever that is also waning. Now a day; we hardly find our friends, kith and kins visiting our homes on such occasions. Thanks to cellular revolution; keeping in touch telephonically became or wishing someone occasionally became accepted norm initially. Now facebook does the things; leaving us totally cut-off from family and friends. Some feels it’s the last nail in the coffin of relationship! Unless someone is in need; rarely comes the phone call; keep afar visiting physically. Without our knowledge; many of us have turned allergic to visiting guests. Entertaining someone for hours or even days; used to be matter of pleasure few years ago. Now for many it’s unthinkable. We have time for facebook, TV serials, newspapers or magazines but not for friends or visiting guests; they are botheration. There is no common topic or matter of interest to share with. If it’s there; better they are shared in facebook or outdoors. Calling someone at home or residence is the last option and so is visiting someone at his place. Well, in most of developed countries societies are so. There they meet in pubs or clubs. Not that here we don’t; we do, we did; local tea or coffee shops are still popular meeting points of many. But paying visits at times used to be a part of our social life to warm-up the relations. Now tragically both are waning; even the tea or coffee shops have far lesser regulars.
 Recent news shocked us that three ladies, an octogenarian and her two daughters committed suicide, jumping off from 34th floor of Kolkata’s high rise in one of most posh areas. Both the daughters in their mid-fifties were unmarried. One of them had commercial pilot’s license and other was a Table Tennis coach! They lost their old, ailing father just two days before. What appears they planned their joint suicide much early; as they donated their cash and properties to one University! Police found a bag containing papers related to donations and their mobile phone. And phone did not have any of their relative or friends phone number!  The flat where they were residing; they were just known by face, nothing more! People could not tell anything about them to police. So, this appears to be an extreme case of being unsocial and the tragic consequence. Will social sites like facebook fill-in the gap?

A trip to TAKI, West Bengal , India

                                   As Bangldesh looks on the bank of Ichamoti, from TAKI, West Bengal. Take a closed look, a cattle corpse i s floating on the river bed, near the Bangladeshi bank. Victim of transborder cattle smuggling. I am not sure how young generation would react to the name of yester year’s one of the most popular writer portraying the essence of rural Bengal, its pains and joys, prosperity and poverty and off course the thread of society; Bibhuti Bhusan Bandopadhyay. His simplicity was eminent in is writing; that was best projected by famous film director Satyojit Roy in his internationally acclaimed films like ‘Pother Panchali’, ‘Aparajito’ et el.  At the age of 9, I read ‘Pother Panchali’. Though I was not matured, enough to comprehend its intrinsic message of the content but the very story left a pugmark in my mind. I became more interested about the author later. ...

If you were assigned to sell a product called “Sweet Treats” with the slogan, “so sweet, it will make you tweet,” but you thought the product tasted sour, and not at all sweet, what would you do?

Often, celebrities contract to endorse a product, but should they use the product regularly, or even like the product before they are allowed to claim that they “endorse” the product? If celebrity is lying, that is endorsing a product he/she does not use/consume then the ad should be pulled.  The Federal Trade Commission requirement that ads or sponsored social media posts indicate so - is not enough to inform consumers. (Robert, 2017) So, yes, a celebrity who endorses a product should at least appear in public using the product. Examples go in the opposite direction, instead of claiming to use a product but not doing so, which would be lying, the Kardashians post product endorsements across several social media platforms either without disclosing it is an ad or waiting until hours or days after the initial post to do so. According to the the organization Truth in Advertising (TINA.org) The delay allows avid followers to see the initial post as a testimonial instead of as an ad. (K...

TATA SKY OR TATA SQUEEZE!!

This is my debut article in the interest of Indian consumers. Just my humble contribution; to enlighten them about the product or service of famous TATA SKY. Amir Khan, the brand ambassador or Mr. Ratan Tata, the person at the helm of all TATA affairs, would be ashamed of TATA SKY, once they know instead of making the life “JINA LALA”; it is turning the life “JINA HARAM” with TATA SKY at times. With much expectation I switch over to TATA SKY from local cable operator in the month of May this year. Within six months twice I they have replaced their set top box. They went out of order and it is under warranty for one year. Every time I called their customer care, they receive they call as if your are naïve. They take no less than half an hour, to guide you to switch off and on , take out their digi-card and put it back, whether you are young or old caring a fig for that! Surprisingly their call centre’s number is not toll free! You are put on hold for ten minutes and another twenty m...
