In addition to the reasons why the guild should fund this. Any tool subscriptions for the guild could be paid via a corporate card? Although this might not work if the entities are supposed to be entirely separate
@coffee-crusher has a contact at MIDAO for potential consultation help

Project Idea
The goals and reasoning behind the entirety of "Road to L2" can be found in the Phase 1 RIP. For phase 2, we will focus on 3 specific subgoals:
Since Phase 1 began, the RaidGuild network has honed in on stronger sense of its day-to-day purpose (thanks in part to a Deep Work workshop): the guild's job is to facilitate a network of web3 freelancers that use our tools and brand. A contribution to RaidGuild is an act that improves the freelancing experience of everyone in the network. Therefore, the way we should think about this phase's first 2 subgoals is by framing it with the question, "does this facilitate the network?" Does being on Optimism make it easier for members to get invoices paid? Does a non-profit structure properly incentivize long-term membership, or is a for-profit structure better? Does a formal legal structure slow down raid formation, or does it speed it up? Do members really want built-in liability when they do a raid? All questions should be oriented towards whether or not a decision makes it easier to freelance in our network.
Given the number of other questions this framing opens up, this phase will run for 1.5 months be broken up into 2 steps:
Throughout this phase, we will ensure open communication with all members. Starting early-October, we will hold weekly meetings (which will be open to all members) to discuss our first 2 subgoals, and during every RoundTable, we will give a small report on what we discussed, and any reasoning behind certain decisions. As is natural with DAOs, there is a risk of "death by committee" with this kind of process. To counter this, RoundTable reports will be short, followed by short, time-capped discussion. But for anyone who seriously wants to address a topic, the place to do that is during the separate meeting specifically for this RIP. To stress a point made in the Phase 1 RIP: this new DAO is not a migration; it is a tool for any member to use who wants to be able to interface with the legal world.. If members don't feel this is necessary, this RIP should be closed.

Summary
As mentioned above this phase will last 1.5 months, and be split into Exploration and Honing steps.
Step 1 - Exploration (10/3-10/24)
Step 2 - Honing (10/25-11/21)
Why should the guild fund this?
To stress again: this phase is not about initiating a DAO migration; it is about adding a tool for members to interface with the legal world. It is our opinion that while all members of the Gnosis DAO are supporting this now, it is likely that most RaidGuild revenue will be passed through the Optimism DAO within 2 years. On top of this, it is likely that the Optimism DAO will eventually be supporting tools like DungeonMaster and Smart Escrow more than the Gnosis DAO.
After this phase, there are 2 remaining phases planned before the legal entity is formed:
These phases will likely last as long as this RIP, and cost as much. But after that, the legal entity should be formed, leaving all future work on the Optimism DAO to be paid for by the Optimism DAO.
Raid Party Skills Needed
Cost (in USD)
\$1,300 - $2,100
Payouts
Since the scribe and presenter payments amount to only $1,100, this will be paid via cookies from the CookieJar, while the consultation fee will be paid to the consultant directly from the Gnosis DAO treasury (or from the Optimism DAO, if legally necessary). This RIP requires $1,100 to be sent to the CookieJar and earmarked for scribes and presenters.
