1. Welcome new people to the call with a quick intro 👋
Yuval - in to learn as much as he can!
 

2. MMM-wide
📝Notetakooooor: 5GTC (new initiative) this week
 

Intro - great to see how the group is growing! excited to get more involved in helping the team grow and MMM.
• Marketing objectives
shared on Q421 Marketing OKRs
build Gitcoin brand with simple, compelling narrative
strong foundation for web3 lean mean marketing machine
connecting with Gitcoin community and build web3 credibility
Need to align objectives in a web3 friendly way

Build a relevant funnel for Gitcoin actions
Increase our impact on the space
Ryan - suggest put community involvement hire up in priorities, renata from DD university is getting Dubai funding from Kevin's video. How do we get these outcomes reflected in the activities.
As of now this is more of a prioritisation list not fixed in stone
building a team to achieve this vision, create marketing channels on how to use these tools we have
• Slack → Discord migration
have a bridge channel before the conversations start to merge into the DAO ones
some channels have deprecated and it will escalate, all of Gitcoin will start to take place on Discord, with new role system will be easier to navigate
• DAO Twitter account vs main Twitter account
evolution of these accounts as we decentralise Gitcoin
decided that holdings team will continue to manage main Twitter account until DAO is handling the grants round (milestone) +2 support
main Twitter can be used for the 'official' channels done in coordination with the group and DAO account for less serious side with the public (caveat: early thoughts). need to figure out what type of content goes where
Brittney - is this decision to split final?
we'll need to figure out a strategy how to we use these accounts before just splitting. this discussion at MMM weekly is more of a vote of confidence that we can decentralise faster than we previously committed
Abidemi - agree on educating public on what Gitcoin is about
Kris - the vibe of the DAO, the culture, that we are spreading with the GitcoinDAO account. Soon we will be GitcoinDAO only, what's the diff with Gitcoin and GitcoinDAO twitter.
see it as main account is work personality and DAO account is more fun side of our personality
(digression) Yuval - currently don't know enough, try to bring a new perspective. how do we reach people like Yuval? Yuval#7243
suggestion - take some notes about how you're exploring GitcoinDAO.
journey so far: website - new to crypto - try to understand if this is the user you want to reach, great chance to interview Yuval on what he looks for, what did he understand and we can figure out what we want for.a user at this level to understand
comfortable with marketing processes but need context on GitcoinDAO
• Hiring growth marketer
• connect with on community experience feedback/improvements that's not MM specific.

• will start raid system! raid is a project with defined budget, goals, team, and timeline. easier to scale ops and check in with projects as we go.
Pilot1: Meme Museum
• submitted raid proposals already. targeting a simple version of the meme museum. want to have

will work with Fred and Brittney on design, Cali dev
Fred - have a place to celebrate great memes is exciting!
Pilot2: GitcoinDAO Twitter (not sub)
• gitcoinDAO twitter is mostly managed by Cynthia
• previous engagement within the discord link with twitter so people can interact with tweets on Discord too, this is on #mmm-social-media
• not a lot of people might be on Twitter actively
• good to try it out then if it works we can implement to follow up
Pilot3: Memepalooza 4 (not sub)
• discussed on the events that it will probably include subsequent memepaloozas
• might need some direction to structure the raid properly especially budget wise
• help to write the mempalooza raid
• will help structure the raid proposal!
Pilot4: Matt Marketing/Media covering MC (submitted)
• Notion version of raid
• raids can be one-off or perpetual (3 month increments)
• raid proposal is 3 month span for MC. really inspired and is inspiring to get people involved.
• coordinate content creators, showcase projects! content from dogfooding meetings, project profile and liase with MMM
• Improving overall GitcoinDAO workstream comms
Ryan - grow capacity to carry out this beyond just one person. working with and in MMM to grow the capacity for people to help on this. we should probably expect other workstreams to have people doing a similar role in MMM too. like partnership with developerDAO, currently no coverage.
Fred - hopefully by next Q workstreams will have something similar
As of now there's a one-off project MC-memes.
Alisha, public goods twitter spaces discussion.
Matthew - suggest to see a raid on governance too!
Ryan - grants rounds comms who will take charge, its ideally one person
Michael Geeson (unvetica)- will be working on this
Sean to find out about grants rounds comms with unvetica or even to bring him for th next meeting.
 

3. Events 🎭

• Update from events meeting

• Memapalooza - Lessons learned
could make more memes(?)
saved the memes (which folder?, did we save the author in the file name?)
more speakers on Memepalooza, not just Ryan (did a great job)
would be good to have more structure about how memes are made, like getting templates, some visuals and inspire people
could do a screenshare during meme making and get the crowd involved - it went well, some people stepped up. people were making the meme with him.
people seemed to like gif memes, suggest to keep doing more meme streams
edutainment

• All workstreams should report any event/project they'd like promo'd through DAO socials on #mmm-events channel will bring this up at DAOOps call to announce

 

4. Development 💻

• Meme Museum
Estimation done by the developers (21 work days - 8hours a day)
leading the charge with the Raid Proposal

• MMM domains, needs transfer from Google Domains to Cloudflare

 

1. Design 🎨
- Update from design sync - Poker chips - Swag-pack for ETHDenver - Regen & Degen card game (Fred and McKennedy), established a design language for it - Join weekly design sessions: https://www.addevent.com/event/nj9154680 - MMM-website, meetings on Monday
• makes more sense to have a separate website for MMM, build something helpful for MMM and people on the outside
- Share components between Figma wireframes?

 

1. Copywriting 📝
Knowledgebase MMM
• DAOdigest a bit too packed especially for new people
• will move to design as its a more collaborative platform
• didn't know how to start a raid
tool: https://tweetshift.com/ : for our tweet automation on discord.

 

1. Other
-Contributor Agreements
• didn't acknowledge all the raids because we want to get into the flow of this process first
• will have separate raid meeting to figure out this process
• already have 6 raids open, want people to start on these things.
• success dependent on not needing other workstreams to coordinate, will get into a point where it won't be a weekly surprise on what's getting reported on
• currently it seems to be mostly documenting everything happening, it might be better to shorten it and just have things people are working on
• how the DAO weekly might end up is currently unclear, will discuss further
MMM-OPS calls for stream leads and substream leads (and Sean) to sync up and coordinate will be Fridays 11am et
Headphones / promo swag for DJ?
