33Audits | Creed Partnership Proposal

Executive Summary

33Audits is excited for the opportunity to join Creed in a 90-day trial period to help determine the long-term direction of the collective. This trial would set the foundation for a partnership in which we can continue growing the Creed brand while preserving the collaborative, trust-based culture that defines the DAO.

Creed Membership 33Audits leadership Lee Faria and Eric Cayce propose joining Creed for a three-month period, after which a more permanent membership will be decided. During this trial period, we are expected to participate in governance, acting as provisional members of Creed.

Role Integration Through internal voting, Eric would be added as a Sage with Account Manager responsibilities at the initiation of the trial period. Lee would represent 33Audits (a current Creed member) as a Paladin/Auditor, assuming the defined responsibilities and contributing to client project efforts on behalf of Creed.

Compensation Structure The trial period compensation structure provides a fixed monthly salary of $6,000 for Eric in the Sage role. This salary would be paid from treasury reserves as operational expenses.

Lee would be rewarded for completed client projects following the compensation model for Paladins outlined in the Creed Playbook.

Success Metrics

Total Revenue Target: $50K Over 90 Days Generate $50,000 in total revenue during the trial period through combined client acquisition and delivery efforts. Allows for onboarding period and collaborative development of business processes over the entire trial period.

New Client Acquisition: Three New Audit Clients 33Audits expected to successfully close 3 new audit clients from combined lead sources. Creed's current members will provide a minimum of 10 qualified leads. 33Audits may contribute additional leads from their network if they choose to.

Governance Participation: 90%+ Engagement Active participation in governance calls with clear agendas and action items. Consistent engagement in DAO voting processes and proposal discussions. Regular communication through established channels with transparent progress reporting.

Team Building: Pipeline Development Identify 1-2 potential Paladin candidates from 33Audits' network and bring them on as provisional Paladins. These Paladins would perform work under 33Audits, and would only be made official Paladins after the 90 day trial.

Conclusion The 90-day trial structure is a way for us to work together for a 3-month period and discover if this is the right fit for both Creed and 33Audits. We want to collaborate with the current Creed team, participate in engagements together, learn from each other, and determine our alignment on future goals. We look forward to contributing to Creed's continued success and industry impact through this partnership.
