Overview
This is the mbd guild budget application for Season 1. It outlines the high-level goals of the guild, how we plan to get there, the team working to make this happen and a proposed budget. The proposed budget is 14,976 $CODE to be distributed over the course of 16 weeks.
Background
Guild setup to build growth system for the DAO, onboard partners, onboard contributors, and support initiatives to grow adoption, partnerships, and funding. We have a list of existing partnerships, active initiatives, and champions for each. This is all roughly working, but needs resources to coordinate contributors to drive the desired outcomes.
Motivation
Need to build and maintain strategy, relationships, manage guild operations, and champion initiatives from the growth side.
Success Metrics and KPIs
-
Number of active partnerships developed -
$s collected each season
Approach
core guild contributors
Core contributors will develop strategy, support the onboarding of contributors to the guild, and help coordinate as owners of their areas of responsibility. They will facilitate the communication between initiative leads, partner leads, and support maintenance of long term partners. They should also hold responsibility for communicating with the other guilds and the governance systems of the wider DAO.
compensation - paid based on time and rate for ongoing contribution.
initiative leads
Initiative leads (individual or group) are responsible for championing an initiative within the guild and leveraging the existing partnerships and relationship leaders to navigate partners and secure support on their initiative.
compensation - the share of revenue or time based payment should be decided by the initiative.
partner relationship leads
Partner leads (can be individual or group) are responsible for owning a relationship with a partner. Understanding the organisation, their needs, sentiment, and capacity to work with each initiative.
compensation - partnership leads get share of banked funds
content/marketing contributors
This role can be content and marketing contributors that want to take on bounties or define packages of work they want to take on.
compensation - paid based on packages of work, time estimate, and rate.
Initiative and partner relationship based compensation
- 5-10% of funds should be split between initiative and partner leads OR each initiative can propose what they want to offer the guild.
- initiative lead: Colin4ward

Core Team
A core guild team is required for managing all of the process, infrastructure, strategy, and supporting a wider collective of partner and initiative-focused contributors.
16 weeks * 390 = 6,240 $CODE
marketing budget
Think we should have a budget for marketing contribution being made by contributors spending the equivalent time as budgeted by the core team and so 6,240 $CODE.
operational budget
20% of guild budget to allow for additional expenses in the season = 2,496 $CODE
