--- # System prepended metadata title: June User Interview Questions --- # June User Interview Questions ## Validation goals - Interest individual contributor v dao tooling features - if we interview contributors, they may be biased toward individual contributor tooling while dao core may be biased toward dao tooling features - Interest in tipping - validation of: - pain point - urgency - incentive - desired reward - desired user experience ## Question Clusters ### Is lack of reward a pain point? ### How would reward influence contribution patterns? What I want to know: - Would the quality or quantity of contributions increase with reward? - Would you feel better? (satisfaction) - Would you contribute more? (quantity) - Would you make higher quality contributions? (quality) - Would you spend more time documenting your contributions? (usage) - on Govrn? Nonleading qs: ### User behavior: request tips, scroll through others work, etc... -> design recording your work - would they mint (incentive) interacting with others' work - **attesting v tipping (redundant)** - related? - tipping without attesting - would you tip something that you didn't directly witness, but people you trust attested to? - attest but don't tip - attest and tip simultaneously - attest and tip later - **discoverability of others / willingness to give** - are there people in your DAO (v outside of your DAO) you'd want to tip? - how would you find out about their work? **requesting others to interact w your work** - would you feel comfortable setting up receiving tips - would you enable tipping on your profile? (v1) - would you want some of your contributions to receive tips while others not? (v2, complex) - how would you want others to discover your work? - would you expect people in your DAO to tip, or others outside of the DAO? - would you share your govrn contributions on twitter or in discord? (socially) - would you share your govrn contributions within the app? - **public profile** - would you want to highlight/pin your top contributions in a profile? Dependencies??? - profile - sharability ## Travis - have used/familiar w govrn? - what communities you contribute to? - primarily focused on daohaus (2 yrs) - season 1 of raidguild - member of so many daos, active participant of fewer - time and money is a blocker - raidbrood - bootleggers dao - this is the only way they currently get money; building custom solutions for clients - daohaus ran out of money in nov so they're not getting paid - so much work - wishes he got paid for it more! - working 50-60 hrs/ week and not getting all your bills paid - the problem really is that the daos don't have the treasury, not that they don't know how to distribute the money - he just wants to be able to pay his bills - biggest pain points in being sustainable? - is lack of reward/recognition a pain point? - reward influence contribution behavior? - interacting with others' work & having others interact with your work - discoverability - social v in app sharing - inside dao v outside dao if I'm tipping someone, would it come out of my personal funds? - I wouldn't be able to provide meaningful incentives to my friends - unless it's in shit tokens that have no value - what's the point of tipping someone a raid token (that has not value) - loves the idea of tipping - loves that collabland was doing this would use it more for people he DOESN'T work closely with - I appreciate this, I think what you did was valuable, and I can spare a little change - tipping wouldn't be meaningful for his 3 person group thinks tipping would work better in a larger group with people they used coordinape, and it sucked because the circles were too big (20-30 people) - didn't work with everyone every day he'd rather tip random strangers in a discord than ppl he works closely with maybe calling it tip - the type of appreciation is much more meaningful in a small group where you know who's doing what - he appreciated genuine verbal feedback from travis to a tip likes giving appreciation to someone who goes above and beyond and not calling it tipping buy me a coffee is also weird to him he only thinks of tipping if he's already paying for a service and then wants to give them extra on top doesn't seem natural would prefer to receive money from a dao treasury to individuals in a peer to peer system - until that is there, there's no cake so icing on the cake doesn't matter - baseline - consistent dao treasury money - could be bounties but he does prefer consistency - this is his job, even though he doesn't really get paid to do it - it's how he's putting food on the table voting power based on appreciation earning your vote instead of earning a cup of coffee the hardest thing about doing coordinape at the end of the month was ppl didn't fill out details on what they did - I did 1000 things this month - if there was a way to continuously track and then do a summary, this would make it so much easier - getting a contributor summary - with coordinape, it wasn't his money he was spending - having a list of contributions would have been really helpful - he would look at this as a report over a certain time period - profile might have the top 3 things they're the most proud of - seeing the day to day minutia on a high level profile view - being able to drill into this from the profile Kairon - loves the granularity - gives him more information - unlocks - a lower friction way to use govrn - the most valuable part is getting people feedback and becoming one of the greats - i see this to use a familiar interaction to sign up to a patreon or whatever, but if it becomes tied to the data it provides that is a big unlock - doesn't - a lot of things he did in web3 have gone to the wind - the context of "forwarding to a grant" would be great to have, not a necessary to have - would use this more with people further removed from him - his close friends already jump through hoops to support him - he wants to lower the - people even not within your DAO - he would be very proactive about sharing his contributions on social (targeting people ) - so far he's been using quests but loves the granularity of govrn and views it as a contender
