Well, I am Sukrut Khambete, co-founder of MBA Ka Keeda. Founder is really a heavy word for me. BTW I would like to give you a basic idea about my website
MBA Ka Keeda is a platform for more than 15,000 students to get their dose on Management Education and Entrepreneurship.
As the name suggests, we promote getting into entrepreneurship after completing MBA rather than continuing the job.
We are fortunate to have great readers ranging from Managers of Fortune 500 companies to some IAS officers. But most of our readers are MBA aspirants or someone who are interested in taking plunge into Entrepreneurship.
Now I have said enough about my blog, but who really cares about it. Right ?
You may be wondering about what’s in it for me ?
Well, I want to give you a fair idea about it in the next few lines and I will tell you why I came with this idea. Read further.
When I started my blog along with my partner, we had do everything, starting from setting up blog, installing everything and writing content each and everyday, backing up data, searching for new content etc etc. and let me tell you, it’s the worst part.
I was wasting more of my productive time in some not so productive activities unless I found out a way to do it.
You guessed it right.
Delegate.
So when I started doing that , I could free up my time for doing some productive activities.
Real breakthrough happened when I stopped blogging. YES. Not completely but I kind of stopped it. (I will tell you about it later)
I put a post related to Internship Mela. The response was huge , 4 companies approached us , unfortunately we couldn’t cater them but we got 4 interns and some of them are working for MBA Ka Keeda for FREE.
I kept getting this request from such aspirants that,
“Hey Sukrut, while I am preparing for CAT, can you tell me a part time job or temporary job which will give me a great exposure and some pocket money for my expenses till I clear my CAT ?”
Well, after a lot of such requests and persuasion from such students, I thought it might be a great idea to give startupreneurs a platform to put their requirements on my website MBA Ka Keeda as most of the startups can’t afford to pay big money and sometimes they don’t want permanent employees.
It will be a win-win situation for bot of us. You will send a traffic towards to me and I will send interns towards you ( not literally)
So what you have to do is write to me at sukrutkhambete@gmail.com or sukrut@mbakakeeda.com about your startup along with description and requirements for an intern , also don’t forget to mention about expected stipend or time period for which you want them.
And the best part is , this is Completely FREE of Cost.
And I want to thank, Mr Alok for giving me this great platform and the book “Autobiography of a Yogi ” (BTW, the book was quite heavy as far as English language is concerned, I had to sit with dictionary by my side to understand most part of it)
I am awaiting a lot of mails from fellow Rodinhooders, the first three entries will win a grand prize. It’s a secret. I will announce it later.

One instant feedback could be: If I’m a first time user, why do you want my email address (ie. make me sign up), even before telling me what your site does?
The No Thanks.I appreciate your offer but I would rather go figure out everything myself because I’m too smart. link is buried at the bottom, and does not tell me that I’ll take me further without signing up.
Sukrut Khambete
It mentions that “Quant 101” , I am giving it away for free for exchange of email id. Isn’t this a fair deal. Win-win for both of us. Most people come to http://www.mbakakeeda.com directly are return visitors so if somebody is coming for the second time, I have put this offer to capture their emails.
No Thanks, tells you that there is no obligation to sign up.
This book is for MBA aspirants , so if anybody who is not amongst the target audience, he/she won’t put his/her email id there.
I hope that answers your question.
Vikram Parekh
Ok. Maybe, I when I read it, it wasn’t very clear to me. Thanks for the quick clarification.

Finally, you are here…. Its a matter of week, once all entrepreneurs read your fantastic offer they will contact you.
Few people like me will mark you and when we require interns, we will immediately contact you.
