I own a med spa in Miami and need current, real-world competitor pricing. This is phone-based secret shopper work, NOT Google research. You'll call 15 med spas, posing as a prospective client, and record what they tell you in a spreadsheet. The 15 spas must be split into three tiers by location: Tier 1 (5 spas): Bird Road corridor, Westchester, West Miami, Coral Terrace, South Miami — neighborhood-level competitors Tier 2 (5 spas): South Miami, Coconut Grove, Kendall — mid-tier spas Tier 3 (5 spas): Coral Gables / Merrick Park area — premium/luxury spas You'll propose the list of 15 first, and I'll approve it before any calls are made. For each spa, gather pricing and details on: Medical weight loss — semaglutide and tirzepatide monthly cost, what's included (provider visits, labs, body composition scans), startup or consult fees, package vs month-to-month Botox/Dysport — price per unit, any membership or loyalty rate Lip filler — price per syringe, current promotions Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) — monthly program cost for women and men if offered, what's included, consult fee Peptide therapy — whether they offer it, which peptides, and program pricing Facials — price of their basic facial and their most advanced facial, plus dermaplane pricing (standalone or add-on) Whether their pricing is published on their website or only given by phone/consult If a spa says "pricing requires a consultation," record that — it's useful data, not a dead end. For each spa, also note: Vibe tier (luxury / mid / budget) based on their website and how the call felt 1–2 lines on HOW they presented pricing (pushy, consultative, offered a promo, tried to book you immediately, etc) Deliverable: Google Sheet, one row per spa (name, neighborhood, tier, phone, date called), columns for every item above plus notes. Process checkpoint: After the first 7 spas, share the sheet with me for review before finishing the rest, so I can adjust if anything is missing. Requirements: Fluent English required, Spanish a strong plus (many of these spas are bilingual). Comfortable making calls during Miami business hours (EST). US-based preferred. Prior mystery shopping, market research, or sales experience is a plus. Budget: $250 fixed price. Timeline: completed within 7 days of hire. To apply: Briefly describe any phone-based research or mystery shopping you've done, and confirm you can call during EST business hours. Applications that just say "I can do this" without specifics will be skipped.

We are seeking a freelancer to conduct an offline survey in the US, focusing on the pain points of pet-owning families.

Title: Short-Form Video Researcher + Editor for Reaction YouTube Channel We run a weekly reaction-style YouTube channel (think Cody & Ko / ItalianBach energy — two guys, a couch, and stuff that's actually funny). We need someone to handle the part of the workflow we don't have time for: hunting down the clips and stitching them into a single video we can sit down and react to. What you'll do each week: We send you the week's topic or theme (e.g., "weirdest TikTok cooking hacks," "guys getting humbled at the gym," "AI fails of the month"). You scour TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts for the funniest, weirdest, most reaction-worthy clips on that theme. You compile them into one 5–10 minute video — clean cuts, no fluff, good pacing, ordered so the bangers don't all hit in the first 90 seconds. You deliver the final compilation. What we need from you: You actually watch reaction channels. A real feel for internet humor — what's trending, what's already played out, what's about to pop. Editing chops sharp enough to make a compilation feel like one video, not a playlist. FCPX, Premiere, CapCut, DaVinci — we don't care which, just that the final cut is tight. Reliable weekly turnaround. We shoot on Sundays, so we need the comp in hand by Saturday morning. Over time, you'll start learning our sense of humor and getting ahead of us on what to send — that's the version of this role we're hiring for long-term.

Compliance / GRC Market Research Support ASAP. We are looking for someone to help us with market research around security and compliance requirements for our company. For us to decide which platform to go with, we need to understand pricing information, expected timelines, and general process details for getting compliant with several security postures, including NIST, GovRAMP, FedRAMP, and DoD-related requirements. We'll then compare across vendors to see which one makes sense to go with. This project will involve coordinating with a few GRC platforms and compliance service providers we have already identified. We need someone who can schedule demos, speak with their team, ask the questions we have in mind (we'll provide the list), request quotes, and gather pricing details. Some familiarity with compliance, GRC platforms, or security frameworks would be helpful, but it is not strictly required. The most important thing is that you are organized, responsive, comfortable communicating with vendors, and able to move quickly. We are looking to start ASAP.
