A Small Vegitable Retailer "Thelewala" used to sell his vegitable in my nearby village named Birji Mali. i have seen him selling vegetables since my childhood. in 2008 i suggested how to sell with effective method in my consultation he started selling in a BUGGA /JUGAD , (a desi vehicle made by villagers for their agri needs. i made available this on rent from a villager) and started to approach 10 to 15 KM far villages where any vegetable seller could not reach. with a Loudspeaker (TURAYI) to announce joking dialogues for entertaining villagers while selling vegetables. now after more than 6 years of consultation, Birji Mali now have 2 Wholesale shops and 3 own openTata four wheelers and 6 jugads with loudspeakers and making payments to 22 staff.
i charged 1kg Patato for my consultation in 2008. now Sunil Sharma is the Marketing Coach of Birji Mali.
The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"I have evolved from role of Community Builder to Startup Consultant to Startup Ecosystem Enabler to Angel Investor and now launching a Venture Studio and eChai has been a catalyst in my overall journey as Startup Evangelist since 13 years."

"If there’s one phrase that sums up my journey, it’s truly ‘The eChai Effect.’ Six years ago, I simply walked into my first eChai event, not knowing what to expect. The honest conversations, energy, and inspiration from founders and entrepreneurs struck a chord within me. That eChai spark became the catalyst for everything to follow. I proudly say: my entrepreneurship journey started—and keeps evolving—because of eChai. Redicine Medsol’s story is integrally linked to this community. I’ve gained so much, not just as a founder but as a forever volunteer and grateful member of the eChai family. With all my heart, thank you Jatin Bhai and everyone at eChai for shaping, guiding, and supporting my dreams. The eChai Effect will always be a part of my story."

"I attended my first eChai event 3 yrs back, and no one knew me in the market. Over the next three years, eChai didn’t only help me with knowledge or networking, but it gave me an identity from being unknown to now being recognized by a group of inspirational entrepreneurs connected with eChai, who have been gracious enough to acknowledge me and Digipple."
