I'm looking for a product researcher to find winning product ideas for my e-commerce store. Not a generic "top 100 products" list .. I want validated product, under my filter (will give you private after). I have a short list of specific criteria each product must fit. The key ones: Low competition on Amazon, almost zero TikTok affiliate activity, low weight, and riding a growing trend. There are a few more smaller criteria I'll share privately with the person I pick. I don't need supplier research or sourcing - just the products and the proof they fit. To apply: in 100 characters max, tell me what products you've found for other projects that those companies actually went on to sell. One-line generic proposals will be ignored.

Looking for a user researcher who is experienced with qualitative research methods, survey creation, and has experience with education, USA college studies or online learning platforms. Ideal candidate should be available for 4+ hrs overlap in pacific time zone, can work independently and is a strong english communicator.

This posting is for a paid 20-game test project. The test budget is approximately $25 fixed price. Candidates who complete the test accurately and provide verifiable source evidence will be considered for a larger historical MLB data project of approximately 1,000 games, completed in paid milestones. Successful work may also lead to additional historical data projects involving NFL, NBA, NHL, and other sports. I am looking for a reliable freelancer to research, collect, verify, and organize historical MLB game data for a private research project. This is strictly a data research and data-entry assignment. I am not looking for betting advice, predictions, modeling, or sports analysis. For each game, I need historical betting-market information and game results entered into an Excel template that I will provide. The requested information may include: Game date Away team Home team Moneyline odds Moneyline % bets Moneyline % money Run line Run-line % bets Run-line % money Game total Over % bets Over % money Final score Inning-by-inning scoring Score after 1 inning Score after 3 innings Score after 5 innings Score after 7 innings Source name Source URL or source reference Screenshot or other source evidence when required You may use any legitimate historical source or combination of sources as long as the information is accurate and can be independently verified. Do not estimate, recreate, or guess missing information. If a requested field cannot be located from a reliable source, mark it as unavailable. Historical Games Only I already maintain a database of more recent games. The selected freelancer will be given a cutoff date, and all games collected must have been played before that date. This is intended to prevent duplicate games from being entered. Paid 20-Game Test Before moving forward with the full project, selected candidates will be hired to complete a paid sample of 20 historical MLB games. For the test, I expect: All available requested data entered into my template Source identification for every game Source URLs whenever available Screenshots or other evidence showing where the betting-market information came from Accurate inning-by-inning and final scores No duplicate games No estimated, guessed, or fabricated values I will independently verify several of the submitted games. If the test is completed accurately, I expect to continue working with the same freelancer in approximately 100-game milestones until the larger MLB project is complete. Budget Paid 20-game test: approximately $25 fixed price After successful completion of the test, my target for larger batches is approximately: $50–$60 per 100 verified games The final price can be discussed based on the difficulty of locating the historical information and the quality and reliability of the work. I am more interested in accurate, verifiable data and a dependable long-term freelancer than simply selecting the lowest bid. Source Verification The most important part of this project is that the information must be real and auditable. I need to be able to verify where the data came from. For the initial 20-game test, source evidence is expected for every game. Once the quality and reliability of the work are established, evidence requirements may be reduced for larger batches. Confidentiality This is part of a private research project. You will receive only the information necessary to complete the data-collection assignment. All information, files, and work product associated with this project must remain confidential and may not be distributed, published, resold, or reused. A confidentiality agreement or NDA may be required. Potential Ongoing Work If the MLB project is completed accurately and efficiently, I expect to have additional historical sports-data projects involving NFL, NBA, NHL, and potentially other sports. I would prefer to establish a long-term working relationship with one or two dependable freelancers rather than repeatedly hiring new people. Please Answer These Questions When Applying Have you previously researched historical sports or sportsbook data? What sources would you investigate for historical MLB betting percentages and odds? Do you believe you can locate historical % Bets and % Money data for MLB games? Are you comfortable providing screenshots or other source evidence for the 20-game test? How long do you estimate the 20-game test will take? Are you comfortable with approximately $25 for the paid 20-game test? If successful, are you interested in completing batches of approximately 100 games at a time? Do you have experience with Excel or Google Sheets? Are you interested in similar historical NFL, NBA, or NHL data projects after the MLB project? Please do not send a generic application.

We have a contact database of 5,251 commercial real estate brokers, agents and property owners. It has not been maintained in several years. We need a researcher to verify and update every record by hand. READ THIS PART FIRST This is a manual research job, not an email-scrubbing job. If your plan is to run the list through a bounce-checking tool and send it back, please do not apply. Bounce checking tells us an address is dead. It does not tell us where the person went. Finding where they went is the entire job. WHAT HAS CHANGED SINCE THE LIST WAS BUILT - Many brokers moved to a different firm, so their work email is dead - Some left the industry entirely - Some have retired or passed away - 2,568 records are already flagged as undeliverable - 2,887 records have no company name at all Roughly 40% of the addresses are personal ones (gmail, yahoo, aol, bellsouth), so the email itself tells you nothing about where the person works. VERIFICATION SOURCES, IN PRIORITY ORDER 1. The Florida DBPR public license lookup. This is the strongest source. It confirms whether a license is active and which brokerage it sits under. 2. The broker's current company website or team bio page 3. LinkedIn 4. An email verification tool, as a final technical check only, never as the source of truth HOW YOU RETURN THE WORK We will send you a spreadsheet already built in our format, 21 columns. Correct the values in place. Do not add, remove, or reorder columns. Anything that changes the structure cannot be imported and will be sent back. The first column, External ID, is our row key. Never change it. It is how we match your row back to ours. Columns you research and correct: Firstname, Lastname, Email, Title, Salutation, Company, Job Title, Gender, Street, Street 2, City, State, Zip/Postal Code, Country, Direct Office Phone Line, Main Office Phone line, Mobile, Fax, Source of Contact Information, Confirmed Contact Information correct Direct Office Phone Line and Main Office Phone line are two different fields. The direct line reaches the broker at their desk. Do not put the same number in both. TWO COLUMNS ARE REQUIRED ON EVERY SINGLE ROW "Source of Contact Information" - name where you confirmed it. The company website, the Florida DBPR lookup, or a LinkedIn profile. Required on every row you change. "Confirmed Contact Information correct" - a dropdown. Every row must carry one of these: - Verified Current - Changed Firm - Left Industry - Retired - Deceased - Unable to Verify This is the most important field in the file. It is how we know whether a blank cell means the person is gone or means you could not find them. Those two things need completely different follow-up from our team. Leaving it empty is not acceptable work. ON HONESTY, WHICH MATTERS MORE TO US THAN FILL RATE "Unable to Verify" is an expected and perfectly acceptable answer. We would far rather see an honest blank marked Low confidence than a guessed address. A researcher who returns 100 out of 100 filled with no Unable to Verify entries has almost certainly guessed, and we will find it when we check sources. Guessing, or building an address out of someone's name and their employer's domain without a source that shows the real one, ends the contract immediately. We check the sources you cite as we go to contact them. Please assume we WILL open them. HOW THIS WORKS Phase 1 is a paid test of 100 records at a fixed price. The same 100 records go to every finalist. We compare results before awarding anything further. These 100 deliberately include the hard cases, not the easy ones. Phase 2 is the full list, the 5,151 remaining records, awarded only to whoever wins Phase 1. Delivered in weekly batches of roughly 500 so we can spot-check as we go and pay as we go. The posted budget is our estimate across both phases. The freelancer selected for Phase 2 will be asked to sign a short NDA before receiving the full list. The 100-record test batch is covered by Upwork's standard confidentiality terms. This data is confidential either way. It may not be resold, reused, or added to any vendor database, and all copies must be deleted when the work is finished. TO APPLY, ANSWER THESE FOUR QUESTIONS Applications that skip them will not be reviewed. 1. Describe a similar list-verification project you have completed. How many records, and how did you measure your own accuracy? 2. A broker's email bounces and his old firm's website no longer lists him. Walk me through exactly what you do next, step by step. 3. Which paid data tools do you have access to, and which would you use here? 4. What is your fixed price for the 100-record test batch, and your estimated price per record for the remaining 5,151? Please begin your reply with the word WAREHOUSE so we know you read this.

I’m looking for someone to find the best possible wholesale pricing for Red Bull and Monster Energy drinks by the pallet for resale in the U.S. I specifically need pricing for Monster 16.4 oz, Monster 12 oz, Red Bull 8 oz, and Red Bull 12 oz. The main goal is to find the lowest legitimate price available for each product. For every supplier, provide the price per case, cans per case, cases per pallet, total pallet price, and estimated total landed cost including freight to Houston, Texas. Please compare suppliers and clearly identify which supplier offers the best price for each product. I want actual wholesalers, distributors, importers, or bulk beverage suppliers, not Costco, Sam’s Club, Walmart, Amazon, or regular retail sources. Please provide the supplier name, website, phone/email or contact person, location, MOQ, shipping/freight cost to Houston, payment terms if available, and current pricing. Pricing should be verified whenever possible by contacting the supplier directly rather than relying only on advertised website prices. You do not need to purchase anything or negotiate a final deal for me. Your job is to research suppliers, contact them if necessary, verify pricing, and find me the cheapest legitimate options. I am looking for multiple suppliers so I can compare them, and if you consistently find strong wholesale pricing, there may be ongoing sourcing work available.

Research Analyst - Acquisition Target Lists & Market Mapping (Marketing/Advertising Agency Specialist) About the role: We are a buy-side M&A and corporate development firm focused on the digital marketing, advertising, media, creative, design, PR/communications, and tech-enabled services sectors. We build and maintain detailed lists of potential acquisition targets, and we're looking for an experienced research specialist to own that process with us on an ongoing basis. This is detail-driven, judgment-heavy research work. You won't just be scraping names - you'll be identifying the right companies, confirming they fit the criteria for different mandates, and finding the specific person we need to reach. Accuracy and sound reasoning matter far more than volume. What you'll do: - Build targeted lists of companies within defined segments of the marketing, advertising, media, creative, and agency landscape (e.g., performance marketing agencies, branding/design studios, PR firms, digital product shops, marketing tech-enabled services providers). - Correctly classify agencies by type, service offering, and specialization - and know the difference between, say, a full-service agency, a media buying shop, a creative boutique, and a martech services provider. - Perform qualitative research to confirm key company details: services, positioning, approximate size/headcount, ownership status, and other fit indicators we'll define together. - Identify the founder, CEO, or the actual decision-maker for each target. - Find accurate, verified contact information for that person (email and, where relevant, LinkedIn/phone). - Conduct market mapping: organizing segments, surfacing adjacent players, and giving us a clear picture of a landscape and who the notable companies within it are. - Keep everything organized cleanly in spreadsheets (Google Sheets/Excel) or upload directly to HubSpot. You're a strong fit if you have: - Demonstrable experience with M&A/corporate development research, sales/lead-generation research, list-building, or competitive/market intelligence - this is not an entry-level posting. - A real understanding of the marketing and advertising agency world, or the ability to show you can quickly get up to speed on how these businesses are categorized and how they differ. - Sharp research instincts: you know how to triangulate details across sources and how to tell a reliable signal from noise. - Fluency with the tools of the trade - LinkedIn (Sales Navigator a plus), company databases, and email-finding/verification tools (e.g., Apollo, Hunter, Clay, ZoomInfo, or similar). - Excellent written English and meticulous attention to detail and data hygiene. - Reliability and clear communication; you flag uncertainty rather than guessing. Nice to have: - Prior experience researching within marketing, advertising, media, or professional/tech-enabled services specifically. - Experience supporting a deal team, corp dev function, or investment/advisory firm. - Comfort designing a repeatable research workflow we can scale over time. Engagement: This is intended to start as a project to ensure we work well together and then, ideally, become an ongoing role with steady, recurring work. We haven't fixed a rate yet - please propose your hourly rate based on your experience, and tell us your typical availability per week. Strong performers will have consistent, long-term work with us. To apply, please include: - A short note on your relevant experience building target/prospect lists or doing M&A/market research - ideally in or near the marketing/agency space specifically. - An example (anonymized is fine) of a list, market map, or research deliverable you've produced, and a brief description of your process for finding and verifying decision-maker contact info. - Which research and contact-finding tools you rely on and have access to. We review every application that follows these steps and will move quickly with candidates who are a strong fit.
