Vision
Balancing technology and principles
to reshape the future of crowd-sourcing.
Built by Creatives, Entrepreneurs and Volunteers... coincidence?
Poola is built by an A-Team of investment professionals, technologists, project managers, and other specialists united by an unwavering commitment to revolutionise the world of crowdsourcing. What's truly remarkable, however, is the coincidence that many of our team members happen to be creative minds, passionate entrepreneurs, and dedicated social good advocates in their own right.
​
Creativity is in our DNA, whether it's in developing innovative features for Poola or finding novel ways to tackle complex challenges. Many of our team members
are entrepreneurs at heart, bringing a dynamic and visionary spirit to the table. We understand the entrepreneurial journey, making us uniquely attuned to the needs of the Pools on our platform.
​
In essence, it's not just a coincidence that our team embodies the very core of Poola. It's a deliberate choice to bring together individuals with diverse backgrounds, skills, and passions to create a platform that caters to the unique needs of creators, entrepreneurs, and those dedicated to making the world a better place!
At Poola, we've embraced a principle-based approach that's more than just words; it's a commitment to reshaping the world of crowdsourcing. Our journey is guided by a set of clear directives, born from the need to build what has not yet been built. This approach has propelled us beyond the competition, differentiating us not only in our company culture but also in the innovative products we offer.
Our principles are not mere slogans; they are actionable guidelines that drive every aspect of our work. They empower us to continuously evolve, adapt, and stay
Principled Based Approach
ahead of the curve in an ever-changing landscape. These principles are not static. Join us on this transformative journey as we uphold these principles, positioning Poola as a dynamic force in the world of crowdsourcing. Explore our core principles below and discover how they shape the very essence of Poola.
Don’t Be Afraid To Fix
The Difficult Things
Embrace complexity, maintain resilience, add value. Let's encourage action at every scale, celebrate progress, and strongly advocate collaborative problem-solving for those looking to make a positive impact on the world. Recognise that fixing unacceptable problems is a lot easier than not fixing them, because not fixing them will lead to more stress, more work, and chronic bad outcomes that have the capability of spreading far across the world. There is no easier alternative than bringing issues to the surface and putting them in the hands good problem solvers. Poola needs to make this both easy and possible.
Speak the Langauge
Massive importance should be placed on breaking down language barriers in crowdsourcing for social good, creative projects, and startups. Poola is a platform that needs to speak multiple languages, ensuring accessibility to contributors and users from diverse backgrounds worldwide. With inclusivity through language, we empower individuals and communities to collaborate seamlessly in their chosen Pools, whether it's supporting charitable causes, artistic endeavors, or entrepreneurial initiatives. This approach allows us to make a global impact, serving as a bridge across linguistic boundaries and connecting people with a shared passion for positive change, creativity, and innovation.
Democratise
Democratising crowdsourcing across all categories—social good, creator, and startup must be a standard. We understand that success should be determined by the strength of ideas and contributions, not by one's position or authority. Our platform should be a vocal culture where every individual's reasoning and input are valued, regardless of their background or role. By creating an even playing field, we empower a diverse community to collaboratively tackle challenges, debate different perspectives, and explore innovative solutions. This commitment to democratisation aligns with Poola's core philosophy that the best ideas should prevail, fostering a collective effort towards achieving meaningful and impactful outcomes for all.
Build an Arsenal
To revolutionise the world of crowdsourcing, we must build an extensive arsenal of tools and features that empower users to make a difference. We're not passive spectators in the crowd-sourcing arena; we're proactive leaders with a strategic vision and unwavering determination. By embracing the spirit of innovation, aim to set ourselves apart from legacy companies and provide our users with a wide array of creative ways to contribute to social good, creator projects, and start-ups. Our commitment to continuously expanding our toolbox ensures that users have the resources they need to drive positive change and make meaningful impacts within our community and beyond.
Extend The Idea
Of A Transaction
In the world of crowdsourcing, transactions can go beyond mere financial exchanges. Every interaction should be seen as an opportunity to create value, build collaboration, and drive positive change. Extend the idea of a transaction to encompass the exchange of knowledge, skills, time, and resources among our diverse community of contributors.
​
Create the tools that encourages users to think beyond traditional financial contributions and consider how their unique abilities, experiences, and passions can make a meaningful impact. By broadening the concept of a transaction, we empower individuals to contribute in various ways, unlocking the full potential of crowdsourcing.
Tools Are For
Using
Choose meaningful impact over superficial metrics. In the ever-evolving landscape of the internet, it's easy to get caught up in the pursuit of website traffic, user numbers, and short-term gains. True success lies in the value we bring to our users and the positive impact we enable them to make. Rather than prioritising the quantity of users, we should prioritise the quality of their experience. Stay dedicated to crafting tools that empower Pools, enabling them to collaborate effectively, achieve their goals, and contribute.
Sunshine and
Rainbows Are
Overatted
Evolving from crowdfunding to crowdsourcing, all within a single app and a unified vision, may not always resemble a picturesque journey. Understand that the path we embark upon might have its fair share of balancing teacups, challenges, and obstacles. Commitment to this principle is rooted in the understanding that the road to meaningful change and innovation can be anything but smooth or glamorous. By embracing the reality of these challenges, we remain resilient and steadfast in our pursuit of reshaping crowdsourcing, knowing that the true value lies in the journey itself, no matter how unconventional it may be.
