TITLE: Partnerships R&D Project
FUNDING: 3,500 $KRAUSE
WALLET: TBD
PROJECT LEADS: ritzleroy
Goal
To raise public awareness of KH, top of funnel membership growth, strong web3 relationships, further legitimize the KH brand through association with partners, solve infrastructure problems, and eventually contribute to on-chain funding.
Idea
This proposal is a request for a lump sum amount of $KRAUSE to be paid to the Partnerships contributing team as compensation for R&D. The approach here is more exploratory as structure/processes still need to be fine-tuned. Future proposal(s) will be submitted once partnership agreements are made and there is a clear understanding of what the appropriate means of funding should be. This is meant to answer unknown questions, and additional proposals will be used to execute on those answers.
Unique Value Proposition for KH
If successful, this ongoing project of securing partnerships will give KH added brand recognition, membership growth/engagement, and increased treasury funds. Additional ways to potentially overdeliver value back to the KH community may include:
Accountability
I, @ritzleroy, would like to lead this team to build out this project, along with @liamherbst_. We currently have 8 other KH members interested in Partnerships to assist with research, inbound filtering, tooling, messaging, team structuring, deal flow, and inbound/outbound strategies.
We will hold weekly sync sessions to discuss the current pipeline, delegate categories to pursue and accounts for members to hold individual responsibility, collaborate with other KH team members for various partnership initiatives, and set goals with hard deadlines to ensure task completion.
Compensation
If this proposal is accepted, we’ll need to do a few rounds of iteration. The focus will be primarily on the below, and from there we will be able to determine appropriate compensation structures and timelines.
By the end of 3 weeks, we will aim to have definitive answers on:
I, @ritzleroy, propose a lump sum in the amount of 3,500 $KRAUSE to be paid to contributors once all of the below deliverables are met. This was determined by deciding on a reasonable hourly rate -
Assuming that about 20 hours/week collectively will be spent working on the project, team meetings, etc (2 hours/week/member if all were to contribute equally)
3 week timeline
~60 hours total
3,500 $KRAUSE / 60 hours = 58 $KRAUSE per hour
This will be split amongst the group based on individual hours and contributions made. Payment of only $KRAUSE will incentivize members to continue contributing and promoting KH, as they have a direct share in the success of the DAO.
Objectives
Completion of the below deliverables 3 weeks following the approval of this proposal:
