Impactful DAO
Introduction:
We are a passionate international team with varied experience in marketing, IT, charity founders, crypto, sustainability, public speaking, entrepreneurship, and between us we have lots of skills and contacts that will be beneficial for the development of this DAO and the community. The DAO will create great CSR for Harmony, develop adoption and grow the community focus on impact. Currently, our work is already been viewed by millions of people weekly and we want to connect this audience to crypto + sustainability + having a positive impact, we would like for the store to accept ONE. One of the immediate ways we will do this is with our online store that gives a percentage to our DAO and percentage directly to the cause & this is one of the reasons why each of our 6 governors are situated on a different continent. We have chosen Harmony because we believe in the sustainability aspect and believe we can scale our project in conjunction with the ecosystem. Another example of the indirect impact this will have on Harmony is through PR, once we develop our projects and partners, we are aiming for international exposure through news and social media. We are founded with effective altruistic principles and we will monitor impact and output often to see opportunities to improve.
Mission statement:
Utilizing our experience and network, we want to connect impact to crypto through the Harmony ecosystem, with the potential to develop digital solutions that benefit communities, animals, and the environment. Through all aspects of impactful, we will directly support important causes on 6 continents, through a % that is decided by the community.
Our team:
At this stage of the process, we would prefer not to publicly reveal our identities but can happily do so privately to one of the Harmony core team members. We can do most of the work in-house, considering our diverse skills (Website design, marketing, PR, graphics, video editing, partnerships, business development, entertainment etc), reducing the external costs of hiring externally. To note, our team already has multiple businesses that may be able to implement aspects of our DAO/Harmony into their current work. We would also happily share our previous experience and work.
Introduction to Governors:
Our goal is to utilize our network to get influential people in the movement to become ambassadors for impactful, so we will add more people to this list (that will benefit from impactful/Harmony as partners. We also have close connections with China and plan to expand our reach there, with the potential to develop partners too.

Benefits to Harmony Ecosystem
-
Growing adoption in Asia, Africa, Europe, North America, South America and Australasia, while also developing digital communities passionate about crypto and having an impact.
-
If the payment system with Harmony is ready, then we would like to support ethical and sustainable brands to get on board, utilizing the ecosystem.
-
Considering our focus on doing good through any digital solutions that we create. CSR (Corporate social responsibility) will be important through our PR/social/News and hopefully widespread. We can include Harmony branding on press releases & any digital material that is produced, hopefully reaching millions of people in new communities that may join Harmony.
-
Considering we’re getting millions of views each week, we will develop an online store that gives back directly to charities & continues the sustainability of the DAO. The aim is for the online store that accepts ONE, therefore this will help grow the users and transactions of Harmony. % of each transaction will go towards the specific cause that the user chooses. This will introduce Harmony to large new audiences, some of which include; charities, philanthropy, environmental, eco-friendly customers etc.
-
One of the main purposes for this DAO evolves around impact; we have various ideas for dapps that can be developed in the future once the full strategy is developed, some of which include gaming, yield farming, marketplace, offsets & widgets. The development of these will indirectly correlate with the growth of the Harmony Ecosystem and we’ll be reaching new communities/audiences.
-
Our real-life project partners will hopefully use Harmony and promote it in their marketing.
We will grow the community and merge with new communities, for example;
- Partners in developing countries.
- People involved in charities that want to support.
- Digital nomads.
- Individuals that are interested in giving back / social causes.

Step 2 - Implement the above and start to develop partners, while also reaching out to our influencer contacts to collaborate with us (social media - promoting our DAO, projects, Harmony).
Step 3 - Develop the community more through our network/marketing expertise. Find a way to implement measurable impact of impactful and organize partnerships, as decided by our team.
Step 4 - Discuss with team/community about dapps - opportunity & potential for impact.
Step 5 - Continue to develop the online store that accepts ONE, Identity and distribute % of profits to each specific cause (Voted by governors or community)
Step 6 - Adapt strategy and projects if needed - recognize new areas for impact.

Digital communities
- Social media - We’re experienced in creating and growing platforms, so we can develop from our existing network, while also reaching new audiences. While we’ll have multiple social media platforms, the focus will be on Twitter (Crypto), TikTok (Products/reach), and LinkedIn (Professional).
- Videos and graphics will be shared to create awareness about our DAO/the work we’re doing and our vision, developing the online community.
- There’s also potential to create online events (Conferences, fundraisers, interviews etc)
Impact / real life
- While our digital strategy will impact real-world issues, events and communities, we aim to hold events in the future.
- Due to the sustainability and our project’s percentile donation impact, we’ll have various supporting partners creating innovative solutions. Real-life events may be created evolving around these specific projects. (For example, tree planting, educational workshops, film screenings etc)
- The Dapps we want to create have real-life solutions, focusing on our 6 main areas of focus. We aim to inspire communities, youth and women specifically within this movement.
Digital solutions:
We have multiple ideas for digital solutions that would grow the Harmony Ecosystem, our community & increase the % of the impact we have. We would prefer not to share too much information publicly at this point, but will happily share more details with a Harmony team member if needed.
- Impactful Store should be fairly easy to set up - we just need to integrate ONE as a payment. We have the draft store ready to publish. Once this is set up, we hope to direct our millions of weekly views towards the website, which will also have more information about our project, impact, vision, team etc & will indirectly support the DAO / impactful projects.
- Widgets - We would like to implement a simple widget that can be used on other people’s websites, such as partners, media, or influencers. This will allow people to connect with our project and Harmony easily.
- Browser extensions - if developed correctly, these could be fairly basic but have a big impact on our projects/partners/Harmony.
- Apps - While these will take more effort, they could also have a big impact.
- Games / Yield farming - Effective way to grow the community / Harmony ecosystem & each aspect will be giving back to our DAO / projects through %.
Thank you,
Impactful
