This document discusses page layout and design. It explains how grids provide structure and organization to publications by dividing pages into columns. The number of columns depends on the publication format and content. Within the grid, typography is used to create visual hierarchy and guide readers through text. Imagery is placed strategically alongside text to further direct the eye and support the content. Proper formatting of text elements, line length, leading, and typeface selection makes text easier to read.
Design thinking is a complex concept that has no single agreed upon definition. It can refer to both the cognitive processes of designers ("designerly thinking") and the use of design methods by non-designers to address problems ("design thinking"). While design thinking aims to provide a framework for innovation, some argue it risks oversimplifying design or being used ineffectively by those without sufficient skills. For design thinking to achieve its potential, closer collaboration is needed between fields like management, design, and innovation research.

The chemigram process was discovered by Pierre Cordier in 1956. It involves using a resist like tape, oil, or sugar on photographic paper to block the chemical reaction from developer and fixer solutions in certain areas. When exposed to light, the paper protected by the resist will change color while the uncovered areas will turn black or white depending on the solution. Creating a chemigram involves applying a resist to paper, developing or fixing it to create a background, then alternating washes to allow the resist to dissolve and create concentric rings of light and dark tones.

There's a reason that 80% of business go out of business within 2 years of launching. More often than not, it has very little to do with the marketing channels that they are using or their approach to strategy and planning. The culprit in situations like this is the mindset(s) that the entrepreneurs are using to try to build their businesses. In this presentation you are about to learn a combination of marketing and general business mindsets that will maximise your chances of being around and profitable long after two years are launching your home business.
The document summarizes the principles of effectuation, which is a process theory that explains how entrepreneurs create new ventures. The five key principles are:
1) Bird-in-hand principle - Entrepreneurs start with the resources they already have available like skills, knowledge, and contacts rather than elaborate planning.
2) Affordable loss principle - Entrepreneurs focus on opportunities with low failure costs that generate future options rather than expected returns.
3) Crazy quilt principle - Entrepreneurs build partnerships rather than beat competitors by bringing stakeholders into the process early with commitments.
4) Lemonade principle - Entrepreneurs view unexpected issues as opportunities rather than problems by turning

The most fatal mistake to avoid as a startupDavid Jackson
The document discusses the most fatal mistake startups can make, which is scaling prematurely before achieving product-market fit. It defines product-market fit as having customers that love the product and a plausible monetization strategy. Startups are warned to focus on building a great product and validating their business plan, rather than growing headcount or marketing, until these metrics are met. Common reasons for premature scaling are a lack of clear product metrics and pressure from investors, which founders can avoid by appointing metric owners and regularly communicating progress.

Things for intrapreneurs to keep ideas aliveeTailing India
Developing successful corporate entrepreneurship initiatives is particularly important because it offers organizations a strategy for profitable growth and serves as an attractive alternative to old, acquisition-led, inorganic growth strategies. But the challenges of achieving this can be daunting, especially for those in the entrepreneurial team itself. For example, it's one thing to recognize the importance of getting people to work for your cause; it’s a different story to execute your plan when you don’t have any positional authority or financial resources behind you.
The document summarizes the five principles of effectuation used in entrepreneurial thinking: 1) Bird in hand - leverage existing means and resources, 2) Affordable loss - assess downside risks, 3) Lemonade - leverage unexpected opportunities, 4) Crazy quilt - build partner networks to co-create outcomes, and 5) Pilot in the plane - focus on actions that directly influence outcomes. It discusses each principle and questions whether entrepreneurs can accurately estimate risks and opportunities or if more caution is needed in new ventures given high failure rates.

when he or she attempts to found
and build a company from personal
finances or from the operating
revenues of the new company.
6. OK, So how do I get started?
Entrepreneurship is a lifestyle and require
discipline, the most important one is financial
discipline. You need money all the way.
Over time I have developed something
called MLP (Minimum Livability Plan); this
could be one of ways to get started...
7. So, how do I really do it?
● Understand, Customer Money is the Cheapest Money
● Personal branding - help others - someone will help you
● Dig deep into competitors public content - don't build
product based their features, but know their weak
points
● Host in-house, it works - use basic linux machine
● Don't waste time in all free stuff, only get free things
thats is required for your business
● Don't give anything free to customers - remember
customers money is cheaper than VC money
9. Bootstrap Business Models
● Sometime there are ideas or products that are niche but
may not provide scale to attract VCs; but it still can be a
viable business
● Sometime startup could stay bootstrapped in initial days
and while creating a stable product acquire customers
and then decide to scale with external fund
● Lifestyle business owners could choose to stay
bootstrapped for long
11. #1: Bird In Hand Principle
To build a new venture - start with your means:
● Who I am — my traits, tastes, and abilities
● What I know — my education, training, expertise, and
experience
● Who I know — my social and professional networks.
Don’t wait for the perfect opportunity. Start taking action, based on what you have readily available
12. #2 Affordable Loss Principle
● Think about affordable loss rather than expected returns. When required bring other
stakeholders on board and leverage what they can afford to lose together.
● By allowing estimates of affordable loss to drive decisions about which venture to start,
entrepreneurs stop depending on prediction.
● Cultivating opportunities that have a low failure cost & that generate more options for the future.
● The combination enables cheap failure and learning that can be applied to the next iteration of
the opportunity.
● An estimate of affordable loss does not depend on the venture but on the person. It varies from
person to person
Set affordable loss. Evaluate opportunities based on whether the downside is acceptable, rather than
on the attractiveness of the predicted upside
13. #3: Lemonade Principle
If you come across lemons, make lemonade!
Invite the surprise factor.
Instead of making “what-if” scenarios to deal with worst-
case scenarios, interpret “bad” news and surprises as
potential clues to create new markets.
Leverage contingencies. Embrace surprises that arise from uncertain situations, remaining flexible
rather than tethered to existing goals.
14. #4: Crazy-Quilt Principle
● Start the process without assuming the existence of a predetermined market for your idea
● Take the product to the nearest potential customer.
● Obtain pre-commitments from key stakeholders, suppliers or customers to reduce uncertainty in
the early stages of creating an enterprise.
● The partnership principle goes well with the affordable loss principle to bring the entrepreneur’s
idea to market with very little cash expenditure.
● Don't wed to any particular market so that the expanding network of strategic partnerships
determines, to a great extent, which market or markets the company will eventually end up
entering or creating.
Form partnerships with people & organizations willing to make a real commitment to jointly creating the
future-product, firm, market-with you. Don’t worry about competitive analyses & strategic planning.
15. #5: Pilot in the Plane Principle
The four specific earlier principles represent different ways
entrepreneurs interact with the environment to shape the
environment.
Not everything can be shaped or controlled, but effectuation
encourages you, as the pilot of your venture, to focus on those
aspects of the environment which are, at least to a certain
degree, within your control.
Control the controllable. Be the pilot of your venture, to focus on those aspects of the environment
which are, at least to a certain degree, within your control.
17. Who can use this tool?
It is a logic & process that can be used as the firm develops in the “0-60mph” (early startup) phase of
growth
Existing business follow the process to gain early customers and committed partners who then create
new means and new goals as resources and viewpoints are added to the mix.
Thus, instead of having a stated goal and finding means to reach it, entrepreneurs use the new means
and new goals to drive the creation of the venture in ways they hadn’t expected, leveraging surprises
as they present themselves.
Effectuators use the process to lower the risk of the venture (by getting customers and income early,
setting affordable loss, and spreading risk to others) and finding truly new and useful market
opportunities by leveraging constraints and new information.

Editor's Notes
Using a combination of these means, the entrepreneur begins to imagine possibilities and take action. Most often, she starts very small with the closest means and moves almost directly into implementation without elaborate planning (fire, aim versus aim, fire). With each action, possible outcomes are reconfigured. Eventually, certain emerging effects coalesce into clearly achievable and desirable goals—landmarks begin to appear on the blank map. The end goals are the combined result of the imagination and aspirations of the entrepreneur and the people she has interacted with during the process.
