Austin, Texas Research Assistant – Build Database of 500 Local Micro-Influencers & Content Creators

Austin, TX Research Assistant Needed – Build a Database of 500 Local Micro-Influencers & Content Creators We are looking for a detail-oriented researcher to build a high-quality database of Austin, Texas content creators for our entertainment venue. This is NOT a social media management position. Your only job is to research and organize qualified creators into a spreadsheet. We are looking for creators who are ACTIVE in the Austin area and regularly create content about nightlife, restaurants, events, fashion, fitness, music, entertainment, cosplay, college life, or local experiences. Instead of asking for 500 creators immediately, I'd split it into two phases: *********** Pleas Read****************** Phase 1 (Paid Trial): Find 50 creators that meet all your criteria. Phase 2: If the quality is excellent, expand the project to 500 creators. ## Project Scope Research and identify at least **500 Austin-area creators**. Ideal follower range: * 500–20,000 followers We are NOT looking for celebrities or mega influencers. We want creators with authentic engagement and primarily Austin-based audiences. ## Categories Please organize creators into categories such as: • Nightlife • Hairstylists • Food & Drinks • Happy Hour • Fashion • Fitness • Music • DJs • Photographers • Videographers • Lifestyle • University of Texas • Texas State University • Cosplay / Anime • Gaming • Latin Community • EDM • Hip-Hop • Event Hosts • Models • Cars & Car Meets • Singles / Social Events ## Deliverables Provide an Excel or Google Sheets spreadsheet with the following columns: Full Name Instagram Username Instagram Profile URL TikTok Username (if available) TikTok URL Follower Count Estimated Engagement (High / Medium / Low) Email Address (if publicly available) Website or Linktree City / Neighborhood Content Category Notes Reason Recommended Contact Status (leave blank) ## Requirements Creators should: • Be located in or frequently create content in the Austin area. • Have genuine engagement. • Post consistently. • Have high-quality content. • Match our target audience of ages 21–40. Do NOT include: • Celebrity influencers • National brands • Fake engagement accounts • Inactive accounts • Businesses instead of creators ## Research Sources You may use: Instagram TikTok YouTube Shorts Facebook Local event pages Festival pages Food blogs Public creator directories Google search Any publicly available sources. ## What We Value Accuracy is more important than speed. We would rather receive 500 excellent creators than 1,500 poor-quality profiles. ## To Apply Please answer: 1. Have you completed influencer research projects before? 2. Approximately how many creator profiles can you research in one hour? 3. What methods do you use to identify authentic engagement? 4. Please include the word "Atomic" as the first word of your proposal so I know you read this posting completely. 5. Tell me about a similar research project you have completed. ## Opportunity If this project goes well, we have ongoing work involving influencer outreach, event research, sponsorship research, and marketing support.
