A professional namer walking through how naming agencies actually approach the process, useful for a founder who wants to think like an expert rather than just crowdsource opinions from friends.
A screen-recorded walkthrough of the actual MCA/SPICe+ filing screens, helpful the first time you sit down to do this yourself rather than hand it to a CA blind.
A concise video walkthrough of the Act, the 2025 Rules, and the May 2027 enforcement deadline, the fastest way to get the full timeline straight in your head in one sitting.
A conversation with the government official directly responsible for the Act's implementation, the closest you'll get to hearing regulatory intent explained in plain terms rather than inferred from a law firm's memo.
A screen-recorded click-through of the actual CPCB portal, worth watching once before you sit down to file, since the category logic isn't self-explanatory on a first visit.

A short, well-produced explainer that gets a total beginner to a working mental model of GST in under 20 minutes, the video to send a co-founder who's never touched tax before.
A watchable, visual walkthrough of the boAt story for founders who'd rather watch a breakdown than read one, covering the same digital-first, founder-led launch strategy from a different angle. Good to pair with the StartupTalky article.
The most consistently useful free Meta ads channel for small and mid-size advertisers, with frequent 2024-25 updates as the UI and Advantage+ change. Great for watching an actual campaign get built and metrics get read out loud.
A concrete, current screen-recorded walkthrough of the actual Mystore + ONDC registration flow, useful for founders or ops hires doing the onboarding themselves for the first time.
A practical, screen-share style walkthrough of the part founders find opaque, actually reaching and working the category team so your application doesn't sit in a queue. Good tactical complement to the official portals.
The founder addressing a specific brand-trust criticism (white-labeling/contract manufacturing) directly on camera, worth watching for how a founder explains a genuinely uncomfortable structural question in their own voice.
A quick, watchable version of the evaluation-questions checklist for founders who'd rather hear it explained than read another blog post before a vendor call.

A screen recorded walkthrough of the actual post November 2025 fast track flow, useful if you'd rather watch someone click through the portal than read about it.
Ben Heath has managed over 300 million dollars of Meta ad spend and shows the bidding decision live inside Ads Manager, useful if you learn better watching a real account than reading theory.
A 2026 dated screen recording matters because Meta and Shopify both reshuffle their UI often, watching it beats reading a guide with stale screenshots.
Heath runs a Meta ads agency and speaks directly to the founder with a genuinely small budget, the exact reader this question is for, rather than an agency managing seven figures a month.
Andrew Foxwell manages hundreds of millions in Meta spend and lays out, on camera, why targeting stopped being the lever and creative volume became the whole game.
Ben Heath's agency has managed over 150 million dollars in ad spend, and this is him walking his own Ads Manager column setup live, the fastest way to see which columns to add and in what order to read them rather than reading about it.
