Growth research VA for a kids' learning platform (list building, outreach, SEO, social)
Worldwide
I run a learning platform for 5 to 11 year olds. I'm focused on selling to schools, doing demos so I need someone to run the research and outreach side. What you'd do: → Find and qualify partnership, JV/affiliate and revenue-share prospects → Find link-building opportunities: resource pages, directories, roundups, broken links → Find PR opportunities: identify recent articles on our topics, find the journalist, log the angle → Find Instagram, TikTok and Facebook accounts in the education and homeschool space worth approaching → Suggest SEO content angles and guest post targets → Watch what other education apps are launching and suggest free tools or games we should build → Create short-form content for Instagram Reels, TikTok and Facebook I'll give you written playbooks with the exact search methods and email templates. You do the research and drafting. I send anything that goes to a journalist. In your proposal, please show me: 1) Two or three projects where you did this work. Links. 2) Real numbers. "Built a list of 340 qualified prospects, 61 replies, 12 backlinks in 3 months" beats "grew brand awareness". 3) One backlink or partnership you personally landed. Link to the live page. 4) Any short-form video you've made. Link. Please answer these three: → You need to find bloggers who might link to a free printable tool. What do you search, specifically? → A subreddit's rules ban self-promotion but we have a genuinely useful free tool. What do you do? → Which is the better PR target for a small unknown app, a national newspaper or a suburban paper, and why? Start your proposal with the word PEBBLE so I know you read this. Terms: 20 hours a week. Paid trial of 5 hours first, then we both decide. Long term for the right person. Organic work only, no ad budget. I don't want mass link drops, spun content or fake engagement. One permanent Reddit or domain ban costs me more than a year of your time saves me.
