Outreach Specialist

Description We run marketing for a boutique Canadian B2B professional services firm in a competitive niche. The site is established and clean: strong Google review profile, original data-driven content, interactive tools that solve real problems for our audience, and a comparison guide that names our competitors honestly. These are genuinely linkable assets. What we need is a person who can put them in front of the right editors, writers, and site owners, and earn links through relevance. You would plug into an existing system. We have a BuzzStream account with an active project, a warmed outreach mailbox, a vetted prospect list to start from, and pitch templates that have already been sent and refined. Your job is to grow the prospect list with targets worth pitching, personalize and send pitches, run the follow-up sequences, and log everything. We review new prospect batches before anything goes out. What this job is not Read this section carefully, because most applications we receive will fail it. We do not buy links. Not guest post placements, not "editorial fees," not niche edits, not link insertions. If your method involves paying a site owner for a link in any form, do not apply. No PBNs, no link farms, no "our network of 5,000 sites," no tiered link schemes. No guarantees. Anyone who guarantees a number of DA50+ links per month is describing paid placements. We know it, and you know it. No mass blasts. We would rather send 15 researched pitches a week than 300 templated ones. If a prospect replies asking for payment, the correct move is to decline politely and log it. We would rather earn three real links a month than place thirty paid ones. What you will actually do Prospect: find Canadian and relevant international sites, publications, newsletters, resource pages, and journalists where our assets genuinely fit. Quality bar: real organic traffic, real editorial standards, a reason to care. Personalize: adapt our pitch templates per target. Every email must show evidence you looked at their site. Send and follow up through our BuzzStream project (pitch, day 4, day 10, stop on reply). Handle replies: forward warm conversations to us, decline pay-to-play politely, keep the CRM clean. Report weekly: pitches sent, reply rate, conversations open, links earned, with URLs. What success looks like Reply rate above 10 percent on personalized batches Earned, dofollow, in-content links from real sites, at whatever pace honesty produces A prospect pipeline that gets smarter each week, with dead categories pruned To apply, include all three of these One outreach email you have actually sent (redact names if needed). Not a template. A real sent email. Three links you earned without any payment changing hands. For each: the URL and two sentences on how you earned it. Your answer to this question: a site owner replies "we can include this in our next roundup for a $90 editorial fee." What do you do? Applications missing any of the three will not receive a response. Applications leading with domain authority guarantees, placement pricing menus, or "we have relationships with 500+ publishers" will be declined immediately. First engagement Paid trial task before any ongoing commitment: 15 vetted prospects with a one-line relevance note each, plus 2 personalized pitch drafts for targets you select. We evaluate the trial on judgment, not volume.
