Interestingly, the 4 million housewife resellers surpass select traditional verticals of real estate, ITeS, and education in the number of SMBs that are digitally influenced.
With the growing reach of the internet and India’s appetite for entrepreneurship, Indian housewives are increasingly using social media like Facebook and WhatsApp to take advantage of the e-commerce rise and reach customers. This is further fueled by the access to easy and convenient online payment options. Housewife resellers are doing business of various lifestyle and clothing products and eatables.
