Proposal for a DAO-funded part-time GET Protocol community manager

DAO Proposal - Community Manager Author(s) - Kyozu Category - Marketing (& Team)

Motivation - The project has lost momentum and excitement resulting in a slumbering community decreasing in size and activity. In actual numbers, the community may be at an all-time low. To reignite the excitement, restore the community, and let it grow there needs to be a new focus on the community.

Someone who works closely alongside the team and is dedicated to the community aimed at kickstarting and maintaining the Ticketing Revolution. The community manager needs access to funds to reward active community members, organize events, etc. The amount should be enough to make an impact but shouldn't be excessive.

Rationale - By funding a part-time community manager (3-4 hours/day) to work closely alongside the GET Foundation, the excitement, and community can be restored while further growing the community to create momentum and maximize the potential for the bull run. This can have a positive effect on the token price. Both the community and the GET Foundation benefit from an increased token price. Without funds the community manager can make less of an impact.

Specifications - Job description:

We are looking for an experienced Community Manager to inspire, support, and educate the Web3 community. Part-time 3-4 hours/day translates into 0.5-0.7 FTE as the community/crypto runs 7 days/week.

Examples of Key Areas of Responsibility:

Community Management: Manage and operate the online communities, including Discord. Regularly release project updates, answer community member queries, and enhance community activity and user participation.

Volunteer Relationship Management: Establish and maintain relationships with volunteers, ensuring their investment and support for the project.

Localized Market: Develop and implement localized market promotion strategies to increase the GET Protocols' influence in the local market.

Offline Event Organization: Plan and execute a variety of offline events, such as community meetups, to increase brand awareness and user engagement.

Implementation - The part-time community manager will be hired by the marketing team at the GET Foundation pending a legal check on the role’s structure and management as a freelancer - remote position. The manager will also closely work together with the Community Representatives.

Profile We are looking for a person with: Demonstrable experience in managing and growing communities & social media channels; A sincere interest and affinity with all things Web3; An understanding of the Ticketing Revolution DAO’s purpose, workings and channels; An affinity with GET Protocol’s history and mission, both in the context of the ticketing industry, as well as from a crypto & token perspective. Remote work with the ability to routinely check-in with the foundation and DAO reps throughout the week.

Daily tasks include but are not limited to:

Actively participate on social media, being responsive and engage in discussions, topics, or threads related to the mission/vision of GET Protocol. Preferably using both the main account and personal account. Actively participate on Discord (or other sources), being responsive and engage in discussions. Create campaigns/quests for community engagement both general and tailored to specific development updates. Create and maintain an environment in which active community engagement (by revolutionists) is/can be rewarded. Work together with the marketing team & community leaders: a) Ideate on (new) ways to activate current community members and grow community together; b) Contribute to building a narrative, e.g., build out the Ticketing Revolution narrative.

Clear objectives are to be set by, in accordance with the DAO, the team managing the community manager.

Consider the growth of the token price, the number of active discord members and the like.

The job is for a 6 month period with outlook for extension upon DAO approval (unless the GET Foundation decides to hire the person). There's a soft 2 month probationary period.

Extension should be requested through the DAO proposal process initiated 9 months after a successful vote. This is to ensure the person gets clarity about the future of his/her position in a timely manner.

Timeline - A job offer is to be posted online, a.o., on the GET Protocol and Crypto Jobs List pages. Potential candidates need to be reviewed and managed by the GET Protocol marketing team. The sooner the better.

Budget - Salary to be set, in accordance with the DAO, conform salaries for the local market.

As an example, the average yearly salary for a full-time Online Community Manager in the Netherlands, according to Payscale, is between 25-42k euros. Given we're looking for an experienced community manager for 0.5-0.7 FTE that would translate to a monthly salary of up to 2000 euros. At current prices (Nov 28th) that would mean up to ~2366 GET per month. Each month at payday the required GET to be distributed to the community manager will be calculated based on the actual price of the GET token.

Additionally, this proposal includes funding for the community manager to use in activities set and managed by him/her (i.e. funds for a rewards structure). These funds should be distributed in xGET only. Up to a maximum of 1500 xGET per month can be distributed, i.e., a total of 18000 xGET/year for the reward structure.
