India has impressed me as a land of entrepreneurs. Many people operate their own businesses out of spaces that are no bigger than the snowball stand on Metairie Road. And some have mobile businesses, moving a cart or other display stand to some location for an hour or more each day.
One of the entrepreneurs who has impressed me is a woman who sells yoga T-shirts a few feet from the Institute. She knows the schedule of classes and has her products displayed either on a motorcycle or on a car, depending on the mode of transportation that day, when class is over and students are pouring out of the Institute. She is very friendly and outgoing, gives out her business card with contact information, and has a good product to sell -- affordable yoga t-shirts with a couple of nice designs and a wide variety of colors. She takes orders, if she doesn't have something immediately available. She also lets you exchange something, if it doesn't fit. And she has a booming business. She gets my vote for the entrepreneur of the month.
