Thanks for taking the time to read our proposal and provide feedback. Please find additional information about our team, ideologies, and plan below.
We are seven active DAO members who saw the need for better communication. We came together to write this AIP to improve it. It is our hope to expand the communications team and create more positions for other active members of the community through a future AIP.
We are asking that you take a chance on us and give us a year. Much like in a retainer process with a communications firm, contracts typically last for a year and if clients are dissatisfied they can change their service provider after the term is up. We suggest a similar approach to give us room to establish the specifications we have provided in our proposal and deliver on our initiatives. The team will focus on ensuring that each contributor is providing value to the function, and the DAO.
In the communications industry, KPIs are meant for specific campaigns or initiatives, not macro performance. Marketing and communications work often suffers from an attribution problem, meaning it is challenging to isolate specific functions or activities to the growth of a brand. With that being said, we are open to feedback regarding particular KPIs that the community might want to have included, as long as they truly are a measure of the quality of our work and arenât influenced by other factors.
Our team will also provide quarterly recaps of wins and opportunities. Reports will also include top priorities and initiatives for the upcoming quarter. In addition to these reports, there will also be weekly Twitter Spaces, AIP AMAs, and frequent communication updates including meeting minutes and other important announcements.
The team believes in output-based work versus focusing on the specific amount of time each contributor puts into this function. With the shift to remote asynchronous work in the world, this model feels more appropriate. That being said, our team is taking this commitment very seriously and will be contributing a large amount of time on the tasks laid out in our proposal. Tasks will be managed by one or more team members who focus on project management, ensuring tasks are delegated and completed. In addition, the team would love for the DAO to suggest tasks to fit into ongoing activities. The platform discussed in the proposal will include a mechanism for the broader DAO to suggest assignments.
