## Story
The average entertainer has to use multiple platforms to find work - LinkedIn is for networking, Classified is for finding gigs and Instagram is for sharing content, but they don’t seamlessly work together to connect artists with opportunities.On the other hand, gig managers are always searching for artists, but online directories lack transparency and clarity, leaving them to depend on less-preferred recommendations. We launched Doodeo to solve these problems.     We break geographical barriers to help our artists generate an income from the globe without leaving their homes, and YOU can enjoy a private live-streamed performance for your gathering.On March 26th - 2022, Wefunder had a private event by invitation only, during which we privately showcased Doodeo 2.0.We arranged for a DJ in Ukraine to perform at the event, which was held in Los Angeles. The mere idea that the invitees were seeing someone perform live and privately from another part of the world that is unstable too....blew their heads.Here's 2 quick videos from the event: source: https://lickd.co/blog/social-salary-calculator Small to Medium F&B establishments can easily book a musician now.Fans can finally book their favorite musicians for a private virtual performance.We are focusing on one type of musician at a time - Onboard, Learn, Optimize, and Expand. 👇     "...by 2017 it had become apparent that “making it” on Twitch required more than a 9-to-5 commitment - WIRED" (https://www.wired.com/story/twitch-turns-10-creator-economy/)Twitch (users largely monetize from subscriptions): - Followers to subs ratio: 3.7% - Avg. subscription fee: $5.11- Twitch fees: 50%Rest of the amount is generated through ads and collaborations.Doodeo (users will largely monetize from their super-fans):- Followers to bookings ratio: 1.41% - Avg. e-gig rate per 30 mins: $35.45- Per day: 4.7 hours- Doodeo fees: 25%Doodeo is the highest paying platform for musicians.Doodeo: Musicians keep 75%Twitch: Musicians keep 50%Tidal: Musicians keep 1.2%Apple Music: Musicians keep 0.5%Amazon Music: Musicians keep 0.5%Spotify: Musicians keep 0.4%Doodeo strengthens its network effect by leveraging gamification, which encourages new musicians to bring their fans and other musicians onto the platform, thereby amplifying the network effect even further  

## FAQ
1. **We love competition but there's several slides in your pitch deck which appear to be "copy, paste, then change a word" from the Vampr pitch deck. I would consider updating those slides before you go live. Are you able to share where you sourced your market size research? Cheers**
   - Hey Josh, Glad you pinpointed that. Ofcourse, competition is what drives our world to innovate indeed. I believe you are referring to the "Value of connecting" slide, the value of these tech giants stated in the slide is public information and not related to either Doodeo or Vampr, we loved the way you presented it to Wefunder audience, as simple as possible, and we wouldn't have done it in any other way. We are in the same exact space, so definitely our language will be very similar. In refe...
2. **Like the idea. Couple questions: 1. Do you have current financials or revenue figures you can share? What are the revenue sources if the platform is "free" for entertainers? 2. Has COVID been a headwind or tailwind and how is doodeo responding? Are you getting traction with yo...**
   - Hey John, Great questions. 1) You can find further figures on our pitch page under "Making Money" section. I would be happy to share more details if needed, email us to investors@doodeo.com and we will get back to you as soon as we can. 2) We would never want to be seen as profiteering from a global tragedy, but we are also grateful that entertainers have found Doodeo beneficial during this period. Our weekly average growth on new accounts went from 44% to 111%. 3) You got that right. Since w...
3. **What’s the price per share?**
   - Hey Elena, We are offering our investors participation in a SAFE agreement with a valuation cap of $6.5M or $5.85M for early birds (that’s a 10% discount for our early birds). In general, a SAFE agreement provides our investors future equity in the company while the specific price per share at the time of investment remains undetermined. When a priced round or acquisition occurs, the SAFE will convert into equity for our investors of this current round. The precise number of shares will be ca...
4. **If I’m ready to invest $1000 now, what kind of return could I expect in the next 3-5 years?**
   - Hey Aaron, Great question! As much as any of us would love to be able to see the future, it’s sadly impossible to know the exact answer to that question. We do have a minimum return goal in mind of 8-10x. That, of course, will always depend on the market and how much it decides Doodeo is worth! Remember, I’m always more than happy to discuss this and any other concerns individually, feel free to email us at investors@doodeo.com. Best, Rony
5. **Hi, Am I able to invest in Doodeo if I'm not a U.S. citizen?**
   - Hey Adam, Yes, absolutely! The only exceptions are the Provinces of Quebec, Ontario and Alberta due to their laws on equity crowdfunding, unfortunately. We are excited to have investors from all over the globe. Wefunder has options for you to easily and securely wire your funds. You can find out more about investors outside the U.S. here: https://help.wefunder.com/legal/304306-can-i-invest-if-i-don-t-live-in-the-united-states. Best, Rony

We do have a minimum return goal in mind of 8-10x. That, of course, will always depend on the market and how much it decides Doodeo is worth!

- Q: Like the idea. Couple questions: 1. Do you have current financials or revenue figures you can share? What are the revenue sources if the platform is "free" for entertainers? 2. Has COVID been a headwind or tailwind and how is doodeo responding? Are you getting traction with your shift in approach. 3. The presentation is very focused on solving a need for the entertainer and less focused on the buyer of the service. What is your plan to get traction with the buyer beyond posting aggregated ad data from other sources?
  - A: Hey John, Great questions. 1) You can find further figures on our pitch page under "Making Money" section. I would be happy to share more details if needed, email us to investors@doodeo.com and we will get back to you as soon as we can. 2) We would never want to be seen as profiteering from a global tragedy, but we are also grateful that entertainers have found Doodeo beneficial during this period. Our weekly average growth on new accounts went from 44% to 111%. 3) You got that right. Since we offer entertainers many useful tools, we went ahead and started with a mission to build the biggest entertainers community. Since we have many verified entertainers on board now, we are ready to start focusing more on the buyer. It wouldn't be accurate to say that we have the perfect plan as we still have more analysis to do, however, we are excited about our growth hacking strategies that we have crafted already. Hope to see you on board, let us know if you have any further questions. Best, Rony
- Q: Are you verifying the entertainers and clients?
  - A: Hey Morgan, Yes. We do have a verification system in place that has proven very effective in keeping our online community safe. We’re currently in contact with 3rd party providers to explore further sophisticated options to ensure the absolute safety of our users. Best, Rony
- Q: I missed deadline by ONE day ahhh..will you be raising again down the road with same terms possibly? If so add me to your email list PLEASE even if terms change. Trying to make 30 percent of my investments on here movie and music related and I did not want to pass on your company just passed out from 18hours on feet yesterday of all days. Congrats on your raise y'all 🗽🇺🇸
  - A: Hey Kevin, Glad to know that you are interested in Doodeo! Email us at investor@doodeo.com so we can have your email to keep you updated. Best, Rony
- Q: What are your plans to expand globally? Is that part of your plan?
  - A: Hey Anil, Over time, yes, we absolutely plan to expand worldwide. As with any company worth its salt, we want to make sure that Doodeo becomes the best possible version of itself that provides a vibrant network for entertainers. Once we’ve created the perfect platform for our users, we plan to go as far as our ideas can take us! Best, Rony
- Q: Excited about this! Can I invest now 500, then another 500 later?
  - A: Hey Andrea, Of course! There are two ways to do that. You can use the link to our Wefunder page and add the remaining $500 you want to invest. You can also navigate to your Wefunder profile and adjust the amount that you would like to invest there. Either way, it’s an easy fix. Best, Rony
- Q: How can I sell my shares?
- Q: Any updates? the 2022 revenue on the details page s still zero, is that right?
  - A: Hi Mirko, good to hear from you. We've already sent an update on Q4 2022, maybe check your spam? We will be sending another update too, end of this month.
- Q: How do I cash out my investment?
  - A: Hi Roger, it's great to hear from you. As you are aware, investing in Wefunder involves investing in startups, and therefore cashing out your investment can be achieved in one of two ways: 1. Finding a buyer who is willing to purchase your SAFE note, resulting in the transfer of ownership of the safe note to the new buyer. 2. If Doodeo exits, then all our investors receive their returns. In any case, I strongly recommend seeking advice from your legal counsel for any legal guidance. Best, Rony
- Q: Is it looking like you'll hit your $354k in revenue projection this year? Do you see your $1.69M revenue projection for next year as doable?
  - A: Hey Kyle, happy to hear from you again and I apologize for the delayed response due to our busiest season. In short, we haven't achieved our 2022 projections yet, Doodeo 2.0 has only been live for 2 months and we had to slow down as the feedback received from our musicians was very crucial, we're more of a "Lay a solid foundation then take off!" type. Nevertheless, there is substantial demand for the upcoming New Year's Eve, and 87% of our customers make their bookings within 24-48 hours (our concept is quiet new, we anticipate a switch from short-term reservations as users become more familiar with our concept). In regards to 2023, with all the insights we're receiving and improvements being made, it is too early to provide an accurate answer, but we definitely feel confident. Ofcourse, like any startup, our goal is to surpass our forecast, 2023 provides us with ample time to work diligently towards our objectives, in contrast to the limited window we had in 2022 with the introduction of Doodeo 2.0. Have you had the chance to observe our platform since its launch? Over the past two months, our platform has seen numerous improvements, due to the valuable insights we have gained.
- Q: Are these exclusively for 1 on 1 performances? Or could the artist have customers from multiple locations watching at once? Also the biggest question for me is can an artist see & interact with their audience? Any info you can give me around how exclusive/interactive the performances will be would be much appreciated as I think that is extremely crucial for this to be profitable, thanks!
  - A: Hey Kyle, 1. Yes, currently, it's only 1 on 1 virtual performances. 2. Group booking is on our plan for the near future, allowing a group of people booking a musician. 3. Ofcourse, we provide a chat at the moment during the 1-1 virtual performances. Musicians can respond verbally but fans can just chat at the moment. The only reason we have a 1 way stream is because of latency (the delay caused by live-streaming), which we are leading on by having the best latency globally, more details here: https://wefunder.com/updates/155572-if-the-big-boys-find-out-they-ll-be-annoyed. However, we are working on getting our live-stream to real time, and that's when we will open up the 2nd stream from the fan's end. This is indeed extremely important for us, as it will initiate our plans to optimize the vibe of a virtual performance, getting it closer to the vibe that you would get during a physical live performance. I can see on your profile picture that you're a musician...I wonder why your concerns are on point! To answer to your last point, it's all what we're planning for, exclusivity, interactivity, and experience. What I can share publicly at this moment: - Exclusivity: a. We launched a program for musicians with a decent fan base to help them create the ultimate value from their fans by offering them X amount of slots to be booked for a virtual performance only on Doodeo. It's up to the musician if they want to keep their calendars open. b. We're in discussions with few musicians planning to create uniquely immersive experiences, such as having dancers within the performance and an environmental backdrop, and so on. - Interactivity: Allowing fans to chat with their favorite musicians, is the 1st step. Eventually this point and the below are ultimately connected, as interactivity will enhance the experience. I've shared some more details below. - Experience (this one is really important for us): Our aim is to optimize the "vibe", unfortunately, a disadvantage of live-streaming. Aside from real time live-streaming, we have plans to introduce features allowing fans to get their feelings out such as virtual or real cheers, emojis, etc..We still have alot to assess here, we want to crack the real time live-streaming first. Our ultimate goal, is the talented middle-class musician, removing these geographical barriers and offering interactivity and experience, will eventually help them create a sustainable income. If you're wondering why Doodeo is currently by invite only, here's why: https://wefunder.com/updates/159099-we-are-live Hope to see you on board, let me know if you have any further questions. Best, Rony
- Q: We want to know what you see your valuation will look like in 3 years also the income and balance statements Not to say much, I think we are very much interested in this project but then we are not opting for the crowdfunding route. We were wondering if you have provisions to accept alternative financing which should save time of WAITING SO LONG for your target to be met. With that we can cover over 50% of your target raise. Kindly reach out to me at thomas@700capital.se so we discuss further.
  - A: For those seeing this, I double checked with Wefunder and it turned out a spam. @Wefunder still waiting for this to be removed, thanks! 🙌
- Q: How did you come up with the name "Doodeo?" Thanks!
  - A: Hey Denyveaus, First of all, thanks for joining us on this journey! We're excited to have you onboard. Good question. We want artists to DO what they love through our viDEO platform, hence, DOODEO. Plus, it's easy to type on the keyboard - memorable. Best, Rony
- Q: Hi , i was thinking to invest in your idea. First of all it's very good initiative keeping in mind a platform to bring forward thousands of unsung artists. Secondly i just wanted to have a clarity on the working of the startup as i could see the company was registered in 2018 and till now the website is not fully operational plus the artists works and bios aren't present. 1. So it is just a demo right now and will begun full fledge after this funding support ? 2. What support have artists shown you till now as there have been already a number of social platforms to be present on and adding one more to the list.? 3. Why haven't an organic reach strategy been used yet on your startup to bring eyes on the website (keep aside the funding point) ?
  - A: Hi Rohit, Glad you found Doodeo interesting! Great questions, here are my answers: About our registered date: As soon as the idea came to mind, we went ahead and incorporated it to make sure we are legally covered from all aspects before we started building the platform. Any platform tends to take 7-18 months to build depending on its complexity, and Doodeo is quite complex housing many functionalities. We were able to build it in 8 months, launching our official beta version in June 2019. In reference to the artists: Currently, the platform does what it intends to do, connect artists to gigs, so it's fully operational, we have generated $32,000 worth of gig income to our users so far. Like every startup, user acquisition is key, our latest strategies have proved to be working (we have posted an update about tripling our user growth from Feb to April with further proof, you can find it under the "UPDATES" tab on our page here) and most of it is organic (to answer another point in your question). We just did a small campaign to understand further our cost per acquisition, taking into consideration what we have learnt to date, to solidify our upcoming growth strategies once we receive the funding raised here, we want to be ready. On the bios: Like every new startup, it's a step-by-step process of getting its users to beautify their profiles, although it's part of our priority list to keep on pushing, time will help but we have few plans on the table that will accelerate this process and entice users to craft their profiles better, I'll share few examples of users working up their profiles: https://doodeo.com/profile/user/shadejenifer https://doodeo.com/profile/user/Danu5ik1565783759 https://doodeo.com/profile/user/DJElliot1615940434 https://doodeo.com/profile/user/Stephcynie1619502358 https://doodeo.com/profile/user/Kevon.Dion Doodeo vs other social networks: we can't neglect the fact that social media giants do generate a lot of traffic (of course depending on the users content), however, these platforms were not built from the ground up to help artists specifically make an income, and remember we're talking about the average Joe here and not someone who has gone viral or already a celebrity (although we do have plans for them in the future). Doodeo offers its users the opportunity to generate an income through gigs, live streaming (an upcoming functionality - raising a donation or charge an hourly fee), along with other future opportunities on our plan. Not mentioning a community that is dedicated to artists in which will create the valuable connections our users are looking for. For these reasons, we haven't been seeing lots of traction on the users' profiles such as follows/likes/comments/etc.., but we have seen 52,000 connections that already happened on the platform (speaking about a dedicated community) with $32,000 generated to our users from gigs. In summary, our users are on the platform currently to generate an income, and ofcourse Doodeo's bigger vision is to start driving a lot more traffic from fans on the platform to engage with the artists. Hope I cleared up all your concerns. If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out again. Best, Rony
- Q: Hi I tried amending my current investment amount to a higher investment. Can you please accept this as it still says pending.
  - A: Hey Jack, I just checked your second investment, it did go through and it's approved. :) Thanks for believing in Doodeo and for your continuous support. Let us know if you need anything else. Best, Rony
