LIP30: Operation Working Group for S6

Title: Operation Working Group for S6 Authors: Sanzhi Date Created: 0913

TL;DR

The Operations Team is responsible for the day-to-day management of LXDAO, including activity planning, brand management, external collaborations, and supporting the cold start of early-stage projects within the group.

Currently, the Operations Team collaborates with several sub-teams: the Editorial Team, LX Talk Podcast, LX Workshop, and BD Team.

Proposal Description

Background(Q5 Quarterly Summary)

Founded in the fifth quarter, the Operations Team hit the ground running. Within this period, we successfully piloted five episodes of the LX Talk Space to Podcast program, created an event calendar, initiated 18 technical sharing and discussion sessions, launched workshops on ERC 721 and ERC 6551, reactivated the Translation Team, and established an Editorial Team. Every month, we consistently produce a high volume of content. Additionally, we celebrated our first anniversary with various activities, released anniversary NFTs, organized Hackerhouse events, formed a BD team, and refined our Standard Operating Procedures for partner relationships.

The following statistics cover the period from June 14, 2023, to August 10, 2023, and pertain to the media-related operations. Our overall platform fan base has grown by 5,097.

Open Bounty is designed for the operations team to offer community members goal-oriented tasks. The application process and approval criteria will be discussed in the new quarter's operational strategy meeting.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs):

1. Attract more developers to join LXDAO. In the past year, over 60 developers joined. Our quarterly goal is to double this pace and attract at least 30 more developers.
2. Enhance the growth and benefits for existing LXDAO members by providing a better environment for conversion; aim to add 10 new Buidler holders.
3. Establish deep partnerships with 5 similar organizations, announce collaborations with over 30 partners, and secure at least one major specialized partner.
4. Improve media relations and self-promotion channels.
5. Experiment with generating profit.
6. This quarter, we are not setting direct targets for follower counts. Instead, we will focus on building valuable relationships and ensuring effective conversions.
