Lead Researcher: Build List of GLP1/Medical Weight Loss Clinics in Texas (Instagram + Google Maps)

Job Description I run a SaaS company that provides client acquisition systems for GLP1 and medical weight loss clinics in the US. I need a detail-oriented researcher to build a verified list of active GLP1/medical weight loss clinics in Texas, with a focus on their Instagram presence. This is manual research only — no scraping tools, bots, or automation against Instagram. All data must be collected by manually visiting websites, Google Maps listings, and Instagram profiles. Scope • Geographic focus: Texas — prioritize Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, Fort Worth, then expand to smaller metros if time allows • Target business types: GLP1 clinics, medical weight loss clinics, med spas offering semaglutide/tirzepatide Data to collect (per clinic) 1. Clinic name 2. Instagram handle 3. Instagram follower count 4. Date of last Instagram post (to confirm the account is active) 5. Website URL 6. City 7. Whether they have an online booking link (Calendly, GoHighLevel, etc.) — Yes/No 8. Whether they appear to be currently running Meta ads — check Facebook Ads Library (facebook.com/ads/library) by searching the clinic name — Yes/No 9. Whether the clinic appears to be an established medical practice (doctor-run, in-person exams, real clinic address) vs. a high-volume telehealth-only operation — brief note Sourcing method 1. Search Google Maps for “medical weight loss,” “semaglutide clinic,” “GLP1 clinic,” “tirzepatide clinic” in each target city 2. For each result, visit their website/Google listing to find their Instagram handle 3. Visit the Instagram profile directly to confirm activity and log follower count 4. Cross-check Facebook Ads Library for ad activity Quality bar • Only include clinics with an Instagram account that has posted within the last 60 days • Skip accounts under 200 followers or clearly inactive/abandoned pages • Flag (don’t exclude, just note) any clinic that looks like a high-volume telehealth shop rather than an established local practice Deliverable • Data entered directly into a shared Google Sheet or Excel file (I will provide the template with columns pre-set — please don’t change formatting or column order) • Target: 150–250 qualified clinics for an initial Texas batch Ideal freelancer • Experience with lead research, data entry, or virtual assistant work • Comfortable manually browsing Instagram/Google Maps (again — no automated tools) • Detail-oriented, comfortable following a structured data format • Based in a timezone with reasonable overlap is a plus but not required Budget/Timeline • $8–10/hr, estimated 12–15 hours total for the full batch • We’ll start with a small paid trial (first 20–30 clinics) to confirm quality and pace before continuing to the full list • Looking to complete within 5–7 days of start Please apply with a short note on your experience with similar lead research tasks, and your estimated turnaround for ~200 clinics.
