# Are You Ready?

> Determining whether you're prepared and/or a fit for MetaDAO

## MetaDAO is built for early-stage, crypto projects

Eventually we'd like to support all kinds of businesses. But today we focus on crypto-native ones because they are most likely to benefit from [community ownership effects](https://docs.metadao.fi).

The ideal stage is when you have a working product / users but haven't raised significant capital yet.

It doesn't need to be pretty - this was an early version of MetaDAO!

## You need to be prepared to build in public and sell your vision

If you don't have a large community yet, that's okay! Tokens are one of the most effective community bootstrapping tools.

But you do need to be able to **effectively communicate what you're doing and why people should be bullish on you**. Your tokenholders will be globally distributed, which makes online communication - such as X articles and videos - key.

We recommend the following:

* At least 1 week of public lead up heading into the launch, with well-written articles and graphic tweets explaining what you're doing and why people should be bullish on you.
* Monthly updates that cover the state of the business (including your KPIs) and what you're focus will be.
* A Telegram group where you're responsive to people that have questions for you.

Because your treasury will have market oversight, this communication is not a nice-to-have, it is 100% critical. **Failure to communicate your vision effectively may lead to capital being returned to tokenholders from your treasury.**
