Worldwide

Summary

We are looking for an experienced B2B lead researcher to help us build a highly targeted lead list for a new XR/AR/VR service. Our service, XRDoctors by ARLOOPA, helps companies keep old AR, VR, and MR apps alive. Many XR apps built in previous years are now outdated, removed from app stores, rejected by Apple/Google, or no longer compatible with new hardware like Meta Quest 3, Quest 3S, newer Android/iOS versions, or modern SDK requirements. We need someone who can research and identify companies that may have this exact problem. The goal is not to generate random AR/VR leads. The goal is to find companies with clear signs that their existing XR app or experience may be outdated, broken, delisted, unsupported, or in need of migration. Ideal Lead Types We want to find companies, organizations, agencies, and institutions that have: Old AR/VR apps on Google Play or App Store Apps last updated before 2022 or 2023 Apps with bad recent reviews saying they do not work Apps that may not support newer Android/iOS versions Apps still promoted on company websites but with outdated store listings Companies with broken or outdated XR pages Website says “Download our AR app” or “Try our VR experience” Store links are broken, removed, or unavailable The company still promotes the experience but the app seems abandoned Legacy VR apps built for old hardware Oculus Go Gear VR Quest 1 Google Cardboard Daydream Windows Mixed Reality Older SteamVR / Vive experiences Agencies that built XR projects in the past AR/VR agencies Creative technology studios Experiential marketing agencies Museum/exhibition technology companies Training simulation companies These agencies may have old client projects that need technical rescue, migration, maintenance, or store compliance support. Industries where XR apps are often abandoned but still valuable Museums and cultural institutions Tourism boards and city guides Education and universities Corporate training Healthcare training Industrial safety training Automotive/product visualization Real estate virtual tours Retail and brand marketing campaigns Research Signals to Look For For every lead, we want you to look for visible signals such as: App was last updated 2+ years ago App has low recent ratings or reviews mentioning crashes/bugs App is no longer available in the store Company website still links to an old AR/VR app App was built for old platforms like Oculus Go, Gear VR, Cardboard, Daydream, Quest 1 Project mentions old technologies like WebVR, old Vuforia, old Unity versions, deprecated Oculus SDKs Store listing or company page looks abandoned The company is still active and likely has budget to maintain the experience Required Output Please provide leads in a Google Sheet or Excel file with the following columns: Company / Organization Name Website App / XR Experience Name App Store Link / Google Play Link / Meta Store Link / WebXR Link Type of XR Experience: AR / VR / MR / WebXR / 360 / Other Industry Country Problem Signal Found Why This Lead Is Relevant Last Updated Date, if available Contact Person Name Contact Person Role Contact Email LinkedIn Profile Suggested Outreach Angle Lead Quality Score from 1 to 5 Lead Quality Scoring Please score each lead: 5 = Very strong lead App seems broken, removed, outdated, or still promoted but not working. Company is active and likely has budget. 4 = Strong lead Old XR app or legacy VR experience with clear modernization need. 3 = Medium lead Company has an XR app/project, but the problem is not fully clear. 2 = Weak lead XR connection exists, but business value or issue is unclear. 1 = Not useful Random AR/VR company with no visible maintenance or migration problem. First Test Task For the first milestone, please find 50 high-quality leads. We prefer quality over quantity. Please do not submit generic AR/VR company lists. Each lead must include a clear reason why they may need XRDoctors. If the first 50 leads are good, we will continue with weekly lead research. Good Search Examples You can use search queries such as: “download our AR app” “download our VR app” “augmented reality app” “Google Play” “augmented reality app” “App Store” “Oculus Go app” “Gear VR app” “Quest 1 training app” “VR training app” “museum AR app” “tourism AR app” “Vuforia AR app” “WebVR experience” “Google Cardboard app” “Daydream VR app” “AR product visualizer app” “VR safety training app” Requirements The ideal freelancer should have: Strong B2B lead research experience Ability to search Google Play, App Store, Meta Store, company websites, and LinkedIn Good understanding of software, mobile apps, or AR/VR terminology Ability to identify real business pain, not just collect contacts Experience finding decision-makers and verified contact information Clear English communication Attention to detail To Apply Please include: A short explanation of how you would find these leads Examples of similar B2B lead research you have done What tools you use for research and email finding Confirmation that you understand we need leads with visible XR app decay/migration signals, not generic AR/VR companies Your price for the first 50 researched leads
