Request For Proposals (RFP): DAO Ambassadooors and Community Leaders
As The Soft DAO bootstraps and scales its activities, we believe decentralizing both our processes and community is important. This means engaging the community from all corners of the world in order to optimize, grow, and scale our global presence. Therefore the DAO seeks to strengthen its bonds within the community by onboarding DAO ambassadors and community leaders. These roles can provide critical support to the sustainability and success of the DAO.
The Roles
SOFT Ambassadooor:
The primary role of a Soft DAO Ambassadoor is to educate others on the mission and activities of the SoftDAO. However, this does not mean mindlessly shilling the DAO nor deploying invite bots in Discord. Instead, this role is for community members with a network of meaningful connections and a willingness to mobilize their contacts for awareness.
For example, the DAO may propose IRL meetups, events, or other ways to engage the community. The Ambassadoors could assist in hosting or spreading awareness about such events.
SOFT Community Leader:
DAO Community Leaders will be in charge of managing and/or engaging with our ever-growing online presence. This means providing support across the DAO’s community on Discourse, Twitter, and Telegram.
For example, Community Leaders could help ensure that platforms are adequately staffed and could respond community questions, posts, and contributions. Good — and bad or malicious posts alike — can thus be identified and acted upon faster due to Community Leader presence. Since traditional DAO governance is admittedly slow, empowering strong Community Leader voices across community environments is important. This helps to ensure that feedback and proposed changes are made in as close to “real time” as possible.
Applicant Requirements and Criteria:
Interested applicants should submit a reply to this post using the template below.
Applicants will be evaluated by the DAO and the top submittooors from each respective applicant pool will be put forth to a formalized vote by the DAO via multi-sig. Previous community participation ought to be of great importance to the SoftDAO when selecting individuals for both the Ambassadooor and Community Leader roles.
PLEASE INCLUDE RESPONSES TO THE FOLLOWING:
- For which role are you applying? Ambassadooor, Community Leader, or other?
- What services can you offer to The Soft DAO?
- How many hours per week can you offer?
- What is your availability each week? Please be specific.
- What relevant experience do you have?
- What bounty do you propose? Please propose a number of USD-based stablecoins or SOFT tokens which you believe are appropriate quarterly remuneration for whatever services you plan to provide.
Interested users should submit their Proposals IN REPLY to this Request For Proposals (RFP) and not as its own free-standing Proposal.
Submitted user topics and proposals that are improperly submitted will be closed without review.
Incentive Alignment:
We think it’s in the DAO’s best interest to remunerate approved candidates from the DAO’s Treasury.
Approved candidates via multisig Vote should then complete a discovery call/interview with the Core Team to review their qualifications. If approved these DAO Service Providers should be required to complete - or confirm having already done - basic verification requirements using the DAO’s compliance provider.
Conclusion
The DAO welcomes feedback, please reply accordingly in the appropriate forum channels.
The DAO also welcomes additional feedback on other complimentary roles which might help further align DAO incentives.
