**Initial formation request, written by Mr Sam Harrison**

> [@Call for Candidates: Creative DAO](https://talk.harmony.one/t/call-for-candidates-creative-dao/4190):

> Hello my friends and my fellow Harmonauts!! We need to kick-start the Creative DAO. The community has been doing a great job up-leveling the marketing in the last few months. Personally, I have loved the content that both bigwhle and @adrianrobison have been creating and I want to see MOAR! @rocket.crazy.one, @giv, @BRUNO, and @frwrdslosh have been talking on this [thread](https://talk.harmony.one/t/creative-dao-mandates-deliverables/2150/2) about the CreativeDAO and getting it started. They have proposed some mandates, but I don’t think they have crystalized what…

**Deliverables and Metrics from the initial funding request**

Regarding deliverables and metrics from the initial funding request, unfortunately there was nothing officially set out by Sam when calling for candidates, other than a brief post from a community member Bruno.

Once formalized the DAO set out its deliverables and metrics through its original funding request.

Deliverables:

- Increase Harmony branding awareness with uniform content across the Harmony ecosystem
- Creation of creative content (Infographics, How-to videos, brand stickers, short form writing, long form writing that aligns with Harmony’s branding)
- Produce a SWOT analysis identifying Harmony’s position in the market
- Generate the first community driven brand guide. Apply to the website and existing collateral.
- Deploy $25K for creative-focused bounties.
- Produce market segmentation studies identifying communities of potential investors to target with marketing campaigns

Metrics:

- 2-3 Weekly posts
- 1 weekly Video
- 1 weekly infographic
- Increase social media following to 2500
- Increase Creatives database to advise when bounties go active to 150 creatives, we currently have 62 creatives signed up as potential contributors to the DAO and its bounties
- Incentivise influencers reporting on the Harmony Ecosystem with creative drives
- Encourage community involvement with the Creative DAO
- Assist core team marketing strategies surrounding roadmap and events

Although some time has passed since formalization, it’s understandable the DAO has had setbacks with motivation and commitment due to the funding bottleneck issues and uncertainty of the DAOs existence. We have been working since January 13th with the full capabilities of the DAO so we are just getting started.

**Treasury Payments**

Multi-Sig Details-

Multi-Sig Address:

0x7c81E03cDCF8e0a65613fF856834054C2b7bC563

Multi-Sig Link: [Harmony Multisig Wallet](https://multisig.harmony.one/#/safes/0x7c81E03cDCF8e0a65613fF856834054C2b7bC563/balances)

The only payments from the DAO Treasury were set out in the retroactive funding proposal, no other outgoing payments have been made from the DAO treasury.

Understandably the DAO has had no income except the initial funding request, approval and payment however the Creative DAO have some ideas which they want to put to the community regarding creating a sustainable income for the DAO.

The Creative DAO has posted one payment transparency report since being funded on January 18th which you can find here: [Harmony Creative DAO Governor Pay Transparancy Report](https://talk.harmony.one/t/harmony-creative-dao-governor-pay-transparancy-report/10117)

**Social Assets**

Creative DAO Discord: [Harmony](https://harmony.one/discord)

The Creative DAO currently operates its primary discord channel on the Harmony Discord server which can be found with the hashtag #Creative-Dao.

We plan to expand on this shortly with a channel on the Creative DAOs organizational server with a channel for contributors.

Creative DAO Telegram:

The Creative DAO has a telegram account but has yet to make full use of this until we can get suitable admin in place and bots to monitor and protect the channel to ensure its safe for users at all times. However for transparency this can be found at [Telegram: Contact @HarmonyCreativeDAO](https://t.me/HarmonyCreativeDAO)

**Lessons learned during the prior term. Both positive and negative**

As we have only just funded on the 18th of January the Creative DAO governors feel like their term has just officially begun, however the delay did serve as a period in which we could get organized. The main bulk of the DAO infrastructure is now in place so we can get to work with the community. Allowing us to get a good start on gathering creators on our personal database which currently sits at 62, contributors can sign up to the notification program by filling out this form: [Contributor Registration Form](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSel3sEHCInnKQ1wIkvjE06omSjnyM6FMYRLT_fJX5NNJzZzJA/viewform?usp=sf_link)

We have opened lines of communication with other large groups of creatives who we can inform when the bounty program becomes active with the community’s approval.

We have begun to develop a database of community members who wish to contribute by sharing key content and social posts when notified: [Social Sharing Registration](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfN1LRHhm7gd1-k-XVkLZX_EIvwGbJ26zX78aopSa30UjrR7A/viewform)

**More information regarding the bounty program**

Regarding details of the bounty program, we have outlined our intent in the process just started with the Talk post [Creative DAO - Creative Bounty Program](https://talk.harmony.one/t/creative-dao-creative-bounty-program/10516)

We have refrained from creating a comprehensive plan for this until the community is happy that we go ahead with this. We have included this in the current proposal as we do not want the DAO efforts to be crippled with further funding delays but rest assured once community approval has been received we will be ready to actively work on this. So far as stated in the proposal, we plan on creating bounties for multiple social channels including Youtube, Tiktok, Medium, Twitter and Reddit. We also plan to make use of the offer of help and guidance as a possible channel for options when Jackteroo at Harmony offered to hold a meeting with governors to possibly ‘’extend and scale the talent pool by connecting multiple established creative studios to be managed by this DAO’’ something which we are very much looking forward to, once arranged. We are hoping this could possibly tie in with the current proposal.
