like everything else with nouns, profitability lives and dies with structure. we have to create systems that let partners support, participate ($), and make it easier and more reliable.
the model is simple (and we have almost had it before): nouns + budweiser, but maintained. trusted partners acting as onchain collaborators. the dao develops ideas that help partners participate, partners co-fund and co-execute, and the brand grows without losing what makes it unique. it is not just about landing partnerships, it is about keeping them alive. right now, i do not trust the current state of the dao or feel comfortable walking partners in unless maintained by cares.
the first client we brought to nouns was liquid death, and we ended up losing the business because a dao member we paid and flew into eth denver never delivered the content they promised their team. current members do not know how to maintain partnerships or deliver at the level brands expect. if we get this right, the opportunities are endless. 2 replies

It took some time, because I really hoped there was something that could be packaged for you/LD. But there wasn’t. A lot of things didn’t shake out at the event as we hoped they did. But there were some good things too.
Even if it was aligned, that I was supposed to produce content for them: both you and Will were on the ground, but not a single time checked on status or anything else in this regard. If this was such a big deal, where is the shot list, deadline, etc.? It doesn’t exist. There’s definitely a „could have“ on my end, but a lot more weight on your „should haves“, Frankie.
It’s hard for me to believe that this is the type of product presentation that you were expecting to share with them, given you were also in charge of the tshirts and packaging.
We can certainly agree that things were last minute, but not because of me. Everyone on the team expressed their gratitude towards you and Will multiple times.
fwiw, what are you trying to get to?
