Plan for tackling Mr. Nishchal Kesarwani



"I take it upon me to ensure that Guruji's secondary tasks and responsibilities are taken care of from here.

If I have the support of the people I came in contact with during my training with Guruji, I will be able to deliver.

Communication protocol

The purpose of this protocol, is to ensure that every Preseed Team members’ communication is effective and uniform so that we all follow certain protocols that define our communications well with each other. Key here is to be fast and mindful. Empathise with other team members who you are communicating with. Any questions or suggestions please feel free to share with the Coordinators.

  • Team communication happens on Whatsapp, Slack and Telegram. These are our our work spaces.
  • Communication be instant please. Have the above apps, Gdrive, Gmail and Trello on all your devices so as to avoid delay in replies.
  • People already get a lot of actionable emails to deal with on a daily basis so cut it out with the repetitive formalities
  • For example “ Hi! How are you”, unless you are really concerned. How is the weather etc.“ I mean just get straight to the point.
  • Communication of Preseed team on Slack (even between 2 individuals) is encouraged to happen on relevant ​*team channels / groups*​ and ​*not DM’s*​ so that the rest of the team can be included as well as learn from the conversation that takes place. Another reason is to be able to amplify the reach of messages (when needed) and protocols from Preseed team to reach other teams in Preseed — which in turn maximizes the impact of the talk. Following this will also reduce redundancy on similar matters of discussion. For ex. check this screenshot








  • Voice notes : Every word should be considered, if the sender didn't have more sizeable responsibilities they would have drafted those same words.
  • Usually, voice notes are sent through Whatsapp (Soon we will use Chattodo)

Don’t waste people’s time. Be sharp, get prepared for the meeting. If you’re not gonna make it, let the other person know with enough time (about 4 hours before)


  • First choose between Zoom call or Google meet or anything you guys prefer. Whichever is more convenient.
  • Send a calendar invite.
  • Use your headset for better sound quality.
  • Make sure one of you is taking minutes i.e. Simultaneously typing or taking notes somehow.
  • Be mindful | respectful | punctual



Hack team protocols

Generally applicable on everyone working at Preseed.

1. First and most important protocol no excuse would be accepted for any low quality work. Maintain standards.
2. Communication at Light Speed. Team members must acknowledge and respond due diligently. Absolutely no failure in work will be tolerated due communication lag.
3. All hackers working on pages should setup repositories in their own github account. ie. they should host the pages while in development stage on their github account for exchanging opinions in the workgroup as screen shots don’t work.
4. All exchange of opinions on any design while the page is being worked upon should take place on the work group.
5. If any page has been finalized, same should be mentioned and the live page to be shared in the workgroup. ie. the page that is hosted on the person’s github account (the person who was assigned the task) to be shared here before calling it done. After the page has been approved only then it can be hosted on the preseed account.
6. When tasks are complete either on producteev of facebook workgroup update as done.
7. Any Documents made for better direction of tasks should be shared with Yatharth or the Coordinator; Also wait for their inputs. This is a failsafe in case of early corrections.
8. Check out the documents for coding guidelines.
9. all new pages must be implemented/coded in the latest available framework versions. ie. for every new design, implementation should start by downloading the fresh version from getbootstrap.com or the framework being used for laying out the design.
10. Makes pull requests with relevant descriptions.
11. Structure. Structure. This includes updating the commit text on Github

Please have a proper structure to the codes. Folder structure:

Directory structure to be-

1. assets/css/ — for css
2. assets/img/- for images
3. assets/js/ — for javascript
4. bootstrap/css- for css files which come along with bootstrap
5. bootstrap/js/ — for js files of bootstrap
6. index.html- home page
7. assets/fonts- for fonts
8. Index.html should be the default page.



Feedback response policy

The purpose of the Feedback Response Policy is important for shaping our product. Instead of reaching out to new users it is important for us to first know our existing users through feedback and serve them really well. We need to know how they're using our product and how we can make the product better suit their needs. Every new feature should have a strong feedback system. Tech team members must know what platform is the feedback coming from, to who, and from who, in the team (for ex. Whatsapp, Facebook messenger, Gmail, Freshdesk etc.). Also, keep a close track on- what percentage of feedbacks are coming from which platform. Keeping a track of the platforms will somewhere help while formulating marketing strategies because we'll know what platforms our users mostly use. We would know the unique user the feedback is coming from but for analysis purpose we will have to club the feedbacks together that are similar in nature to see the ones that are common. While some feedbacks may look similar but in reality they might be very different from each other. So clubbing of feedbacks need to be done intelligently. The bottom line is we have to know what the users are trying to tell us, and try to ensure that it's taken care of. This will lead to a healthy business and formation of a company with a strong foundation that has the customer's best interest in its heart. Nishchal’s further teams are spread over the teams of his respective startups. Those teams can’t be found here on this page for this page is strictly dedicated to the team of CHATTODO, but you can likely find them on the team pages of his other startups..









ESOP, but no ego please

The most exciting learning moment of it all was 'how to build an ego less company' - What does that even mean? It means a company without any door or roof or body or shape. No, ego less company is not a word that has been used ever perhaps, I coined it to explain yet another fundamentally different attribute of our company. The advantage of running a company like this is that I don't have to waste too much time in hiring or firing people, people can come in freely and walk out freely. THE GOODNESS OF THIS STRATEGY LIES IN THE FACT THAT THOSE WHO COME IN AND DON'T LEAVE.

ESOP, but no ego please

Employee stock options at Preseed for those who can keep their ego aside.

I put the first word about Preseed in feb of 2012. Since then we have come a long way forward. From no money in my pocket and 1 person to no money in my pocket and 15+ people team. That means a lot of things, but this post is not about what all that could means, since, all that I have already indicated across my various writings about Preseed. This post is to describe how I plan to distribute stocks to employees of Preseed

If you find your name on the list below you must have -:

We hope you acknowledge that one day Preseed is more likely than other startups from India to be a multi-billion dollar company that will make an impact in the world not only through it’s products but also through its unique culture of ideas, faith and action through irreplaceable inspiration.

One of the greatest difficulties that I face in running a company like Preseed in the world of people who have much greater egos than their knowledge (obviously, for, ego and knowledge are inversely proportional) is handling people with my little tolerance to bull shit excuses, careless attitude towards my company and mediocrity. Oftentimes their inflated egos make them want to quit immediately after that rare outburst from me.

Well obviously there is a good in even that event of that person leaving, the problem is the going also creates that negative vibe in the company because the company of individuals does not understand that coming and going is no big deal in a liberal culture like that

One needs to understand that if I pasted them they must have deserved it. Any way startup life is not so rosy and even the rose comes with thorns. If you can keep taking those blows and keep moving forward for the sake of our mission, then you most definitely deserve a chance not only to hold the stock but to lead one day for you listened well from those whose sincerity in Preseed is unquestionable. You need to understand that if I pasted you, I did it in the best interest of our company which is one thing you can’t doubt. Try it.

For me the best interest of preseed matters far over and above pleasing anyone. I am easy but those who are careless may not find me that easy after all. Find out about the strictness of Sri Yukteswara’s attributes as a teacher to Sri Yogananda Parhamansa and Steve Jobs/Elon Musk/Larry Page’s strictness as leaders of their teams.

In this light I am pasting a screenshot of some email exchanged between I and a senior member of Preseed:



gmail

For ego stock post — 

I don’t know about 2015 but I know if in 2014 I am doing anything that does not relate to Todoed then it is not the right way to go for me. I am saying that I have brought Preseed to a point where as long as it has you guys hustling together it will keep moving forward as long as each one has the intent to be there for each other. As long as that is there we have a structure and spirit to build an extraordinary company out of such relations we are forging.

Anyway, so I am saying that please run the company smoothly so smoothly that I don’t have to interfere.

If I am found doing anything else in the company other that building Chattodo then know without me saying,that you guys are not doing it right. I need to focus only on Chattodo. For everything else I have laid the foundation very thoughtfully in such a way that it can all be handled with my continued directions which will always be there, especially given that I have already written everything in detail all the way to the next 5 years of our works forward. Now we just have to fill the dots most of which are already indicated. Basically, I feel the blueprint is already created. Now we have to see how well you guys collaborate among each other and cooperate with each other. Just remember it is important to empathize with those you work with to truly understand their situations and intent at all times. That will help you make right and righteous decisions for each one of us.

Please work hard. Preseed will not only be a mulit billion-dollar company but will also be a company that will inspire generations through truth and unparalleled transparency.

Have someone in mind you want to refer to join the team? Communicate with us and ensure he takes it forward



How are teams built? - Other team members' contribution to finding new talents for their team is paramount. Each one should take upon themselves in growing their teams. So I am clearly saying if you talent around you with counter culture beliefs that resonate with Preseed values, create introductions of such people with us, along with your views on what agenda could we build upon with the fellow being you have found for us.
Delegation of work - MOST IMPORTANT Everyone must learn over a period of time of course, 'the art of building their own team'.
The biggest attribute we see in our people is 'how well can they inspire others to work with them' if you need money to build your team then you need to see how Nishchal is building his team.



Nishchal's Friends


Friends of Guruji who draw inspiration from his energy and mind and vice versa, are our mentors. Their guidance, assistance and resource access helps us a great deal, ensuring growth in lives of all stakeholders.

On internet things can flow. On internet things can grow.

Dear distribution artists,
I understand what goes into putting marketing strategies for viral distribution of the web products. It is more of an art than app designing is.
Lets first discuss that part of the marketing that is about acquiring users only:

We need 1 extra ordinary marketer who could -:
1. 100% organic marketing. We mean it. There will be no money for promotions (even if money is not a problem for us) for marketing at this stage of startups at Preseed Projects. So you got to know the hacks of the web marketing and distribution world.
2. Have faith that this job is the key to helping some really inspired founders and developers in changing the world.
You need to be well networked in the global tech media community and should be active on Hacker News, redditt, Twitter, Product Hunt, relevant media and other popular platforms that can be mighty useful to create an initial buzz. You need to be our exact definition of a new age web hustler. This guy should communicate like a bullet.
If you are this guy, write to me at nishchal@preseed.in with the subject 'Preseed Project marketer'. If I like you, I would offer you a fair stake in Preseed itself for you are important to my scheme of things.

Amarata
Preseed Design / UI/UX Head


We value simplicity - in our world we pride ourselves on our design aesthetics. This opening is not for anyone who feel their vibes flow strong with ours, unless you are someone with a subtle design sensibility and leadership fire to inspire a team of designers. Over the past few years we have learned that designers in themselves are a very different type of leader - one we would need to balance out the Reactor Core. There are countless projects related to design going on in Preseed and your role would require you to have hawkeyes over them along with the team of extraordinary talent built around you. If your values resonate with ours - connect with someone in the team, but before that - apply.

Partner the geeks and hustlers and create marketable products by design. This is where extraordinary front end men and women look after those aspects of the product that the users will interact with. This is the team that finally makes Preseed products marketable by design.

This stage for Preseed typically starts when the initial idea is prototyped into a MVP and now it is time for it to start interacting with the users.

Now let me elaborate a very important remark I just made, ‘ The team that makes products marketable by design’, through the eyes of Preseed -:

Step 1 — We get the geeks to hear our ideas, get inspired, code and deliver the MVP of the idea discussed. Until this point they handle the front end as hackers not as designers. This works to speedily get prototypes ready for our testing, may be sometimes even private beta launch because ‘we like to launch fast, even if the design is rather embarrassing’.





Step 2 — The MVP is now ready for the play. Remember it is still not the best UI even though we can imagine it, for we don’t think we want to spend our resources to create the best UI for it yet, for it first needs to be launched to the real users. So once the MVP is tested privately, we open the exact same thing for the users, and then continue iterating till we see some customer traction

Step 3 — This is when you come in. At this stage we have some real customer metrics. This is really when an idea starts looking like it is ready and worthy of more resources. The MVP now has a hand full of users using it, while it had designs that were not the kinds we would like to see in products we use as users. So clearly it is a good sign that the product is making sense even though it is not well designed.

Step 4 — Marketing through design. Do you know what we mean? This is when the products are brought to the team at Ugly MVP. This is when Preseed Web Lab finds its front end artists.

Step 5 — Once we have created a UI that work, we start distributing the product, through media, popular bloggers, relevant forums, early adopters, distribution apps etc.

Step 6 — We keep trying till we either fail or we succeed.

Step 7 — We move on to our next product.

Design is more important than engineering in the consumer web space. One of the problems we see in this space in India is not of that of engineering. In fact India produces strong engineers. It’s a problem of design, for India seriously lacks consumer web ‘design’ sensibilities. The reason stands — lack of geeks here marrying some seriously cool people. We hope that someday we are able to teach that to India through our products.

For now we are looking for just 1 user interaction designer who is willing to commit themselves to Preseed and its products/startups/clients. We won’t pay these designers any salary or immediate compensation. We will instead offer the designers upto 2% ownership in Preseed soon enough perhaps immediately after 3 months of our active working relationship. If you are willing, read this note.

Note -: Preseed is going to command substantial ownerships in a lot of future startups. Even 1% ownership at Preseed may be of a huge monetary value someday.

If you think you could make our already useful MVPs into stunning functional pieces of art. Join us. Write to me right here or at nishchal@preseed.in



You are requested to share design files via www.invisionapp.com Coordinators must ensure files are stored properly. (Brand name) Design folder there should be a folder with the name (New Designs by XYZ) Team must engage in commenting on invision app of the shared files Followed by a mandatory doc report - Nishchal's feedback. Others feedback will also be a doc report in that folder where designs are kept





On internet things can flow. On internet things can grow.

Dear distribution artists,
I understand what goes into putting marketing strategies for viral distribution of the web products. It is more of an art than app designing is.
Lets first discuss that part of the marketing that is about acquiring users only:

We need 1 extra ordinary marketer who could -:
1. 100% organic marketing. We mean it. There will be no money for promotions (even if money is not a problem for us) for marketing at this stage of startups at Preseed Projects. So you got to know the hacks of the web marketing and distribution world.
2. Have faith that this job is the key to helping some really inspired founders and developers in changing the world.
You need to be well networked in the global tech media community and should be active on Hacker News, redditt, Twitter, Product Hunt, relevant media and other popular platforms that can be mighty useful to create an initial buzz. You need to be our exact definition of a new age web hustler. This guy should communicate like a bullet.
If you are this guy, write to me at nishchal@preseed.in with the subject 'Preseed Project marketer'. If I like you, I would offer you a fair stake in Preseed itself for you are important to my scheme of things.
