We are building a women's co-working lottery - for women with online businesses.
Funding through productivity: By getting their daily business tasks done, users would be entered into a lottery to win funding for their business.
As a digital nomad who has travelled to over 40 countries. I have seen first-hand how women around the world are trying to make a living online through creating small online businesses.
They are trying to sell candles, or study a course to be a virtual assistant, or sell Canva images.
Some extra pocket-money that they might win in a lottery would be extremely helpful for this demographic - especially if they have to be productive in order to enter the lottery (as procrastination is another huge problem when working remotely).
The business tasks that users could add include:
Make an Instagram post
Write a blog
Update accounting
Set up an automation
Clear inbox
Unsubscribe from email newsletters
Update social media profile graphics
Create a sales funnel
Write an email newsletter
Call potential business prospects
Reply to emails
Create a Pinterest account for marketing
Optimise social media strategy
Add new products to online store
Record a podcast
Post about business in a Facebook Group
The DApp could also include an NFT rewards system for the most active workers and these could be displayed on their profile, along with the tasks they have added and completed.
In addition, having a discord server (and eventually a social media network built on Lens) where women can support each other and connect, mentor each other, etc - can be a huge help for users as working online can be very isolating.
The DApp will include a profile section where users can also add links to their online stores, websites, etc - as a form of advertising for them. The profiles will appear in a searchable member database.
The DApp will also include a few directory pages where women can add any online events they are hosting, products they are selling, etc. The directories would just link to their events/products/services that are hosting elsewhere on the web (for example, a user could link to PDF planner they sell on Etsy). Users can support each other by buying products/services from each other, attending events by other members, etc.
There may be some hurdles to get women to use this DApp as many women with home businesses might not be very technical. But this could be a great way to introduce blockchain technology to a huge demographic of non-technical people - and thus assist with the wider adoption of web3 technologies in the world. The DApp would include an onboarding guide for setting up a wallet, wallet security, etc.
The UI could also be very 'non-technical' so as not to overwhelm the user.
Tech Stack
Solidity: To create the smart contracts that will handle the user profiles, lottery, addition of tasks to the task feed, etc. Ceramic Network For storing user data NextJS: The DApp will be built with Next.js and Typescript Web3 Storage: This will be used to store the directory details, etc. The Graph: Querying data RainbowKit: Wallet connection Chainlink: For the lottery Alchemy/Infura: Node Provider Figma/Canva: Design Vercel: Deploy the DApp Airtable: Onboarding form Discord: Community Mailerlite: Automated emails Pabbly/Zapier: Automations
Development Roadmap
