Template Form 2: Fill & Download for Free

I love 99.9% of what YC does.I do not love their Template Sales Agreement.Why? It was written by a lawyer at a Big Law Firm who almost certainly did not support a high-velocity inside sales team. And because of that, it is way, way too long, complicated, and liability-focused. It will create endless redlines, phone calls, and will get “forwarded to our attorney to take a look” by your prospects and customers. That’s fine for big enterprise-ish deals. But it becomes a big hindrance for sales in smaller, more transactional sales. In fact, if your prospect sends a $3k deal to legal to review … legal may be so busy, it just never gets reviewed. And the deal never closes.If you need an enterprise-grade contract, go get one from a lawyer. You can start here with this form, for sure, for a $25k+ a year contract. It’s a good (if lengthy) start for that.But if you are selling a $299 month product, or a $3k-$5k a year product, you don’t need 9 pages of T&Cs. That will slow down or even kill the deal. You don’t need to worry about (generally) all the nuances of export regulations, or SLAs, or Choice of Law, or all of this in the early days. Forcing a customer to do a press release as part of your default form? I mean, seriously??What you need for transactional sales is the simplest possible 1 page contract, 2 page max if your product is < $5k a year.Using this form will create a huge amount of friction in a standard, small deal that you just don’t need.A happy medium sometimes for transactional sales is to just add the minimum necessary T&Cs and legalese to your website but not the purchase order / simple form contract for smaller deals. I.e., have the customers just sign the >first< page of the YC form, and turn it into a 1 page contract — and just reference the rest as standard T&Cs on your website. This isn’t as “good” as being in your contract from a legal perspective. But it’s something.n.b.: not legal advice.

​​​Thanks Isha for A2A.The German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) is the largest funding organisation in the world supporting the international exchange of students and scholars.Working Internships in Science and Engineering (WISE)The programme targets Indian students pursuing a degree in the fields of science and engineering who wish to do an internship at a German higher education institution or at a research institute.Who can apply?Students from selected Indian higher education institutions in the fields of engineering, mathematics and science who are in their fifth or sixth semester of a Bachelor’s programme or in their fifth, sixth, seventh or eighth semester of an integrated or dual degree programme. Students who have been awarded a WISE scholarship previously cannot apply again.What can be funded?A research internship at a public or state-recognized higher education institution or a non-university research institute in Germany to work with doctoral students, scientists or professors as part of on-going research projects.Duration of the funding?2 to 3 months in the period between May and July. Internships of less than two months duration cannot be supported.Value?A monthly scholarship of 650 Euros for undergraduate students (the monthly installment will be calculated on a daily basis, i.e. 21.70 Euros per day).A lump sum travel subsidy of 550 Euros.Payments towards health, accident and personal liability insurance covered by DAAD.Participation in a meeting of DAAD scholarship-holders in Germany.Step by step process:One should start mailing from September since later on many good colleges would have already taken interns and DAAD have their deadline around November.Start making your resume and cover letter. Get a template from your seniors or write your own cover letter.STEP 1: Getting an invitation from a German ProfessorMost important person in the entire process is the professor. Shortlist them on the basis of your interest, university etc... You can search for the best German universities online. Go through the profile of professor on his/her web page. Read about his/her papers, projects etc. Write him/her a mail and request him/her to offer you an internship. Attach a very precise resume.About the mail:Always address the professor by the last name with a proper title.For e.g. Dear Prof. Meyer, Respected Dr. Paul etcStart the mail by introducing yourself and your college. You can write about few major subjects you have studied/ lab techniques known. Mention about your research interest (you should get an idea about it after going through prof’s profile). You can also mention his/her current project that you are interested in. Clearly mention the dates of internship feasible to you (or at least duration). In the end, you can tell him that you will be applying for the DAAD scholarship.Best time to mail profs is Monday around 12-2 pm (Indian time), that’s 8-10 am in Germany. You can send mail to multiple profs. Try not to mail professors during weekend. Don’t write a generic mail. Don’t CC.You may not get a reply immediately, be patient, don’t freak out. I got a positive reply after sending mail to 30-35 profs, and the reply was after 10 days.Some profs may take telephonic interview or send a questionnaire/problem… be prepared for it.NOTE: Do not give any false information.STEP 2: Application DocumentsYou will be offered a DAAD scholarship on fulfilling following requirements.CGPA > 8.5 at the time of application.Acceptance/invitation letter from a German professor.NOTE: No proficiency in German language is required.Following documents are required at the time of application.Online application formCertificate of Enrollment with stamp of home institution.No Objection Certificate from home institution.Approval form by German host.Reference from Indian university teacher which provides information about the applicant’s qualifications.University degree certificates indicating final grade(s).More information about all these forms can be obtained from DAAD website.Your home institute may take a lot of time to prepare Certificate of Enrollment, No Objection Certificate and grade sheet. It’s better to apply for these a month prior to applying for the internship.Make sure you have your passport ready at the time of application. You will need your passport to apply for VISA.You will have to send a printed version of online application along with other documents to DAAD Delhi office.NOTE: Application deadline is 1st of November.I got an acceptance on 29th September. I wasn’t able to send my application by 1st of November, so I contacted DAAD Delhi office and told them my problem. They understood my situation and accepted my application which reached them on 5th of November.Results are generally declared by the beginning of February.STEP 3: After getting the scholarship1. Book your Flight Tickets: Tickets generally gets very expensive so buy then ASAP. Turkish Airlines are generally cheapest. But cheap is always not a good option. Cheap flight doesn’t have good facilities. Do check the luggage allowed before booking. If you can’t find a flight directly to your institute in Germany, you can consider travelling by train. German trains are fantastic.2. Arrange accommodation: Ask your professor to arrange an accommodation for you. If he agrees, nothing better else start looking online.1. http://www.stw-on.de/services/biete-und-suche2. http://www.wg-gesucht.de/en/Keep in mind the following points while booking online.1. Make sure you book a room close to university.2. Don’t pay anything in advance.3.Make sure you have a kitchen in your hostel/ apartment.3. Get Schengen Visa: It allows you to go to many European countries. Getting a VISA is an easy task for DAAD Scholar. Just take all necessary documents with you.4. Finances: DAAD will provide you the stipend once you reach Germany. You will have to open a bank account in there and send the information of your account to the address/fax-number given by DAAD. First instalment from DAAD will arrive in your account in about 7 days. So you must carry sufficient amount from India to stay there for 10-15 days on your own. Generally 200-300 euro will be enough but in case you need to pay security deposit or first month rent to your accommodation, 800-900 euro should be more than enough. To get the currency converted, you can contact any bank or private vendor.5. Socket Convertor: The Plug point in Germany is different from India. You can buy a universal travel adapter in INR 200-250.6. Food: If you eat fish and pork, you won’t have any problem. Pure vegetarians will have problem in finding food. Take some food along with you for first 1-2 days like Maggi, namkeen, laddu etc (Don’t keep any food stuff, spices etc in hand bag while boarding flight, everything will be removed when it is checked. Keep these things in baggage that will be kept in the luggage chamber). There will be a menza(mess) near your university. They generally have one veg dish. Few vegetarian things, one could get there are: breads, veg Pizza, garlic bread, yogurt, cake, fresh juice, packed food etc. You can browse several general stores to find some more new vegetarian food stuff. For cooking in Europe, flat heating plates are used instead of flames as in India. So, take vessels with flat bottoms for cooking. Other than spoons and plate, a frying pan was enough for me.7. Language: At your work place, language will be mostly English. Most of youth especially students know decent English but older people such as staff at hostels, general stores and other people generally know little or no English.8. Travelling places: This is the best opportunity to visit places in Europe. Europe is a beautiful place and I guess you won’t get better time in future toexplore places freely.Source www.daaddelhi.org/en/

I assume you are going to integrate the template to one of your admin page you built, some of the basic steps which i would do would be 1. open the index.html page and try to seperate header and footer into two seperate file as header.php and footer.php (I am giving a example in php). 2. try to see if there is a blank page in that template and create a new template form it using the header and footer file syou created as most pages with contentw ill have lot of html, and you probably wont need them all the time some times you just wnat to load your custom html in it. 3. just use the remaining page sif you need them Hope it helps :)(more)
