This document discusses best practices for bootstrapping a SaaS startup to 100 customers including starting small with a focused product, getting early feedback from free users, having a slim team, charging early, using word-of-mouth online marketing, and letting others promote the product through an affiliate program. It also provides tips for optimizing the user experience, metrics, funnel management, hiring, customer stories, saying no to extra features, developer quality, and managed hosting.
How To Solve Problems You've Not Seen In SEO Before | Spring Brighton SEO 202...Mat Davis
If you're used to working with a full SEO team at an agency, what do you do if you move client-side and encounter issues you've never seen before? And you can't find answers via the usual channels? Being unable to find similar examples in the community is pretty unusual in 2021, but when it happens it can be a real learning curve to diagnose and solve them yourself.
Using a case study from the last 18 months, Mat looks at achieving the balance between the process of elimination and data interpretation, and uses a touch of conspiracy theorising to resolve the problems.
AMP is coming to improve the mobile web. Big time.
There are many aspect to a great user experience on sites.
In order to improve the speed of the media websites on mobile and the monetization, we needed few things:
1. Fast pages. Fast to load, fast to display, saving bandwidth when possible.
2. Easy for the developers and companies to create. Only based on known and widely used technologies.
3. Mobile Friendly: they should respect a standard and thanks to this standard, pages would be automatically optimized for mobile devices
4. Embrace the open web: non-proprietary technology, open source, available to anyone to use and improve. It should not only help for search engines, but for everyone.
In these slides, we will cover AMP and what it can do for you.

We'll look at a variety of different growth hacks, tips and tricks that cleverly utilise data, technology and behavioural science across acquisition, conversion, retention, advocacy and the product.

Churn and what it says about product/market fitBrian Kelly
When you're an early stage B2B SaaS startup (with less than $2M ARR) finding your ideal customers and turning them into raving fans of your product is all that matters. This is hard work. It is easy to highlight whatever signals that show you are making progress.
Don't do that.
Keep it simple: Reduce gross churn and keep your cost of customer acquisition low until you've truly found product/market fit. Ignore the allure of "net negative churn" and other vanity metrics.
I gave this presentation on October 14, 2016 at #brightconf in Chicago.
Digital Agency Coaching - Free Digital Agency Proposal TemplateLee Goff
Winning deals and being a successful agency doesn’t mean you have to be the lowball offer, in fact the best agencies never are.
But if you’re an up and coming agency that isn’t quite as reputable and established how do you validate the higher price?
The simple answer is this: a superior digital agency proposal.
A superior proposal is organized but creative, concise and still detailed. So as an agency owner with a hundred and one things on your to-do list, how do you write a proposal in a timely manner that fits this contradicting criterion?
You start with a proposal template that has been fine-tuned over the course of a decade and has already proved its success. Then you take that outline, plug in some personalized and customized information, spice it up a bit, and voila!
Now this isn’t some template I just threw together overnight. This is 13 comprehensive sections full of information, tips, and examples that have been put to the test, and come out on top, time and time again.
Winning big deals, and loosing big deals, can make or break your agency. So don’t leave this up to chance. You’ve got one shot to show people that you’re agency is THE solution to their problems. Check out our proposal template to start winning big deals and growing your agency today.
Having a fine tuned proposal template can be the difference between success and failure.

7 deadly sins of scaling with sa fe agile munich 2020Taghi Paksima
A flash through pitfalls we've come across while supporting organisations scale and de-scale lean and agile over the past years. The deck is from talk Stuart Fish and myself gave at Agile Munich (http://agilemunich.org) in June 2020.

Drupal: the ultimate customer development tool! Do you know what your custom...Kristof Van Tomme
In this presentation I want to share with you the aha moment I got when I first read about customer development, minimal viable products, pivots and the business model canvas. After introducing these concepts I'll also explain why these methodologies are universally useful and can be applied to any product/service, in both business and governmental/not for profit settings. I'll finish the talk explaining how Drupal can be used as the ultimate minimal viable product machine to make sure you build something your customers will actually want.
This session would be an adaptation of the lean startup session I gave a Drupalcon London:

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.
