Shout Outs/Acknowledgements
Organizational Updates
S01
- Lots of folk are on guest passes
- Consider upgrading people to L1 - How does it look for non-full members to be offering our services?
- Get up to speed before going outbound to represent the DAO to other DAOs
- For compensation, all funds must be distributed by Sept 27
- Budget due Sept 20 for S02
- Coordinape for S01
- Originally set up at 200K BANK
- Some members feel bizdev hasn't done enough to warrant a Coordinape yet, and it should be benched until next season.
- Consider benching Coordinape and divvying up 100K BANK evenly among those bizdev members that have contributed to the BD Guild for >6 weeks
- Bo to set up poll for bizdev members who have been contributing for >6 weeks to the Guild
- 38k to Grendel and 58k to Viking for retro-pay
- 28k each to Bo and Viking for Sept Roles
- 10k Bounties
S02 Budget:
Two roles established:
- 84k BANK per role for the season
84k * 3 or 4 = 252-336,000 Bank
- Bounties: 25,000 BANK
- Coordinape: 150,000 BANK (End of Season Distro)
- Consider 2 additional roles: Engineer & TBD (Concierge? - for managing guests from other DAOs)
- Engineer coordinates between ninjas & the Guilds
- organize and coordinate talent pools that can help us develop sellable products & services;
- internal survey of DAO projects to figure out where we are across the org (in terms of product & service development) and the gaps between where we are and where we want to be
- understand if/how a project can become revenue-generating
- once we understand the status of projects, we can coordinate the talent
Current Issues:
- How do we structure the guild & organize the talent?
- How do we sell the stuff we have already? (e.g., the $BED)
- Note that the BED team doesn't need any help from us except to funnel more sales reps to them
Channel definitions:
Bizdev-General : where we make most of our announcements and all-guild notices, including introductions
BD-Opportunities: where we talk about leads, opportunities, etc.
Note: use threads to minimize clutter
Questions:
How can we best ramp up?
- show up, volunteer to leap on a project
- the BED is ready for sales reps
Action Items:
Bo: Governance form RE: budget allocation (100k divided amongst anyone here >6 weeks)
- Make sure we're not missing anyone. 48 hour window on survey.
