A prototype can be defined as a physical and incomplete (or

develop, test as well as communicate with the actual
concepts or ideas.

• Advantages of Prototyping: -
▫ Prototyping gives the entrepreneurs an advantage to test
their ideas in a tangible way
▫ It also helps in easily unfold the actual plan and debug
during the early stage for issues and fix it, thus saves a
lot of resources in parallel before actual implementation
▫ Prototyping also helps entrepreneurs to take iterative
actions in refining as well as visualizing the idea
▫ Example: trial software / demo version of any
application

13. The Enterprise Life-cycle (cont….)
Gaurav Kr. Roy
• Modest early stage survival: This is beginning era
where the conceptualization of your company takes
place. Here you focus on spreading your idea as product
to your target market. Then wait for the revenue to come
in and this makes a sustainable business.
• Endurance to equipped maturity: It is called “post
startup” stage where your company is experiencing
growth. Small updates in the depts. & within the system
is done in this phase
• Operational maturity to scalable enterprise: In
this stage, the founding team plans to bring new
innovative ideas or domains to objective or take an exit
(Exit means sell the business to other mature
companies). Adapting new things & decision for scaling
the business come in this phase.

14. Incubation, Accelerator & Venture capitalists
Gaurav Kr. Roy
• Incubators are organization intended in accelerating the
development and expansion of a successful entrepreneurial
company, throughout the array of production supporting
resources as well as services which could comprise of office
space, capital or financial support, coaching and guiding the
budding entrepreneurs, networking and connections etc.
• Accelerators are short-term, structured and fast-paced
programs that last 3 to 4 months. They help startups and new
co-founders participate & aggressively grow in developing
their ideas to prototype and achieve milestones.
• VC are investors that provide financial support to companies
that has high growth potential in exchange of finance.

15. Finding Investors
Gaurav Kr. Roy
• Through your industry connections
• Look Online: AngelList, LinkedIn, Microventures,
Nexgeno etc.
• Through top-tier business schools & startup
schools (within Universities and colleges)
• Entrepreneurial community of your city
• Make connection through your mentors

16. Professionally Email Investors (informative purpose)
Gaurav Kr. Roy
• Subject line: You as an entrepreneur have to draft a compelling subject
line. This will grab attention and make a psychological soothing effect if
your subject line is to the point. The subject line also needs to show that you
understand what you are doing and also your investor. It should not look
like spam. For drafting a subject line you might have to do a research on the
investors.
• Body of Email: When the investor will open your email, it should also be
precise. Less is more when it comes to the body of email. This may comprise
of 5 to 6 lines at max which may include who you are, what you want, what
you do, how can we proceed – i.e. the business model and about your idea
or product. Imagine every investor is receiving 100 to 200 emails per day,
so write the lines as accurate as possible, and cut to the point. The body of
email is the micro-chasm or smaller version of your pitch.
• Attachment: Do not put any big attachment. Let suppose you send a 30 to
40 MB of PowerPoint presentation, then you are done because that investor
-> seeing the size of your attachment won’t proceed any further in your
email. So, make sure file size is 2 to 5 MB at max.
