Gold-Rec: Season #1 kickoff

Members gathered on the Goldman DAO Discord server on Feb 14th, 2022, to kick off the second season of the DAO. Here are presented the main goals and proposals extracted from this meeting for the starting season.

Brand growth

Goal: Achieve 5 formal deals

Details: We count as deals any interaction with 3rd parties in which any kind of formal agreement is proposed, including project development, audits, consultancy, or any paid contribution. Also, count as achieved deals, proposals that we reject, or canceled after some back and forth between the two parts.

Proposals:

• Write down a first version "Ethos" of the DAO
• Establish and maintain a frequency of at least 6 weekly publications on Twitter
• Publish at least 3 articles on mirror.xyz during the season

Business growth

Goal: Achieve a season's raw income of 10.000 USD

Details: We will consider the income value in tokens not pegged to USD at the moment of the transaction. We will not consider profit or losses due to fluctuations of the token's valuation when they are in the treasury.

Proposals:

• Continue working on small to medium deals (fed by the brand/portfolio growth)
• Secure a medium to big client that can leverage us to bigger deals
• Put the treasury to work

Team & Operations

Goal: Improve client & treasury management

Details: We want to improve our management of clients; pre, during, and post deals. This would help us to increase contract success & client satisfaction at the same time that we reduce the risk of team burning up. Additionally, we want to work further on how we manage accounting and treasury management in anticipation of an increase in financial operations (payments, distributions, and withdraws).

Proposals:

• Implement a minimal client management system
• Implement a minimal treasury management system

Governance

Goal: Approve 5 formal Snapshot proposals

Details: As a metric of governance activity, we want to have at least 5 formal proposals published and approved on our Snapshot by the end of the season.

Proposals:

• Rebase voting system to single voting by membership
• Release and distribute a membership NFT
• Pass most or all of this season proposals through Snapshot

*Note: The approval of this proposal do not guarantee the approval of every individual proposals collected above but the ratification of the goals defined on the kickoff meeting.
