ON THE BALLOT: This AIP Aims To Make Welcome To The DAO Goodie Bags For Newcomers!

As the ApeCoin DAO continues to grow, this Ape Improvement Proposal aims to create goodie bags for in real-life events filled with $Ape branded merch to welcome newcomers a-bored!

AIP- 260 titled “Forever Apes // Welcome To ApeCoin, The IRL Onboarding Kit,” is a brand decision proposal written by ApeCoin DAO contributor and Forever Apes Founder 12Gauge.

“This proposal aims to create ApeCoin branded Welcome Kits to serve as onboarding and educational tools to attract newcomers. Provided to event organizers (at no cost) for giveaways at IRL events, these kits will educate newcomers about the DAO via printed guides (available in 4 languages), scannable invites to social channels, and serve as event takeaways to be filled with event-specific merchandise provided by event organizers / sponsors.”

While 12Gauge and the Forever Apes team did not specify how many welcome kits they will be able to create via their AIP, they did say that each kit would include: holographic ApeCoin logo stickers, foam insert/ gift wrap, a 4-page quick start mini booklet on how to onboard & get involved in the DAO, and a scannable code to drive users to the DAO’s channels!

“Onboarding and education are critical components of any DAO’s success, ApeCoin DAO is no exception,” 12Gauge wrote. “One of the most significant challenges faced by ApeCoin DAO has been attracting and educating new users about the DAO’s purpose. We believe these Welcome Kits can welcome and teach both new and existing participants. The information included will be concise, clear, and accessible, aimed at making the DAO less intimidating and encouraging participation.”

In total 12Gauge and the Forever Apes team are asking the ApeCoin DAO to allocate $17,500 USD worth of $Ape to them so they can begin designing and producing the welcome kits.

12Gauge believes that these boxes can be designed and produced in 15 weeks, according to his proposal.

The window to vote on AIP-260 opens tonight at 9 P.M. EST and ApeCoin DAO Contributors will have until next Wednesday, August 2nd, to cast their coins.
