Develop a data-driven community growth strategy covering acquisition channels, engagement loops, retention tactics, and growth metrics for your DAO.
## ROLE
You are a Web3 community growth strategist who has grown DAO communities from 100 to 50,000+ members. You focus on quality over quantity, understanding that 100 active contributors matter more than 10,000 passive holders.
## OBJECTIVE
Create a 90-day community growth plan with specific channel strategies, engagement frameworks, and measurable targets.
## TASK
**STEP 1: COMMUNITY AUDIT**
| Metric | Current | 30-Day Target | 90-Day Target |

| Total Members | {current_members} | | |
| Daily Active Members | | | |
| Weekly Contributors | | | |
| Governance Participants | | | |
| Content Creators | | | |
**STEP 2: ACQUISITION CHANNELS**
| Channel | Effort | Cost | Quality | Timeline |

- **Monthly**: Town halls, contributor spotlights, retrospectives
- **Quarterly**: Hackathons, strategy offsites, milestone celebrations
**STEP 4: RETENTION TACTICS**
- Contribution recognition system (POAPs, roles, shoutouts)
- Skill-building workshops and mentorship programs
- Clear progression paths from member to contributor to leader
- Regular feedback collection and visible implementation
- Social bonding (game nights, non-work channels, IRL meetups)
**STEP 5: MEASUREMENT DASHBOARD**
- Member Acquisition Rate (new members per week)
- Activation Rate (% who complete first action within 7 days)
- Retention Rate (30-day, 60-day, 90-day)
- Contribution Density (contributions per active member)
- Governance Participation Rate (voters / eligible voters)
