If you are not an A-player and cannot meet the requirements specified below, don't even bother submitting because it will quickly not work out even if you interview well.

How did you vet them, set quality standards, and hold them accountable? What is your approach to quality-controlling guest post placements? What would you look for, and what would you reject?

Job title: Researcher — Vinyl Record Manufacturing: Technical History & Economics of a Modern Pressing Plant Category: Market Research / Industry Research Type: Fixed-price · Budget: $2,000 · Duration: 6 weeks · Experience level: Intermediate Overview We’re looking for a curious, detail-oriented researcher to produce a structured, professional research report (~10 pages) covering the technical history of vinyl and the modern capital and operational requirements to launch a viable pressing plant. Key Research Question How has the technical evolution of the vinyl record shaped current manufacturing standards, and what are the specific capital, equipment, and operational requirements to establish a viable pressing plant in the modern market? Context The history of the vinyl record is a testament to the evolution of sound recording, materials science, and industrial manufacturing. At the same time, it is a fascinating intersection of obsolete yet enduring analog technology — a physical artifact that has consistently resisted obsolescence in the face of numerous digital revolutions. Will this trend continue, or will it become obsolete as technology advances? Objective Produce a comprehensive historical, technical, and economic analysis of vinyl record production. Focus on the format’s lineage, outline the modern vinyl production process, and assess the industrial requirements and costs necessary to establish a fully operational vinyl pressing plant today (specific capital investment, specialized equipment acquisition, skilled labor, etc.). What You’ll Do Conduct independent research on the assigned topic. Gather, review, and summarize academic papers, industry reports, and expert commentary. Synthesize findings into a clear, well-organized report following our standard Research Report Template. The report should reflect independent thinking, strong synthesis, and clear communication — not just a data dump. Who You Are Strong writing and analytical skills. Comfortable reading academic papers, summarizing complex ideas, and identifying key themes. Curious, self-directed, and able to manage your own workflow and deadlines. Excellent written English and ability to cite sources clearly. (Bonus) Familiarity with AI tools like ChatGPT, Elicit, or Perplexity for research support. Requirements Complete one ~10-page report within 6 weeks. Follow our provided report structure and formatting. Provide full references for all sources used. Disclose and fact-check any AI-assisted work per template guidelines. Meet weekly for 30–60 minutes to provide project updates to Advisors. Compensation & Timeline Pay: $2,000 per completed report Timeline: 6 weeks from initiation of project engagement

We're Endpoint Automation Solutions, a 35-year-old warehouse management software company serving mid-market manufacturers and distributors. We have a powerful brand guide, strong social templates, and a CEO with a backlog of great podcast and video interviews sitting on the shelf. What we don't have yet is someone showing up every day to bring it all to life on LinkedIn. This is that role. It's ongoing, fully remote, and roughly 1–2 hours a day, but the hours matter less than the rhythm. We need someone who treats LinkedIn as a place to stay active and engaged, not somewhere you post once and log off. What you'll do every day: - Engage live on LinkedIn — comment on competitor content, monitor what they're putting out, and join the conversations our audience is already having - Repost and add smart commentary to supply chain and manufacturing operations thought leaders - Turn our CEO's existing video and podcast interviews into fresh, original posts — clipping, repurposing, and reframing footage we've already captured - Amplify and elevate the content our own employees are creating - Ghostwrite for our CEO as needed - Announce press releases and company news as it happens What we're looking for: Writing is the heart of this role. You need to sound like a real person who gets warehouse and manufacturing operators and you need to be able to write convincingly in someone else's voice when you're ghostwriting for our CEO. A creative eye still matters, but with our brand guide and templates doing a lot of the heavy lifting, we're weighting writing over design here. We also want someone fluent and curious with AI tools. We work heavily in AI-assisted workflows, and we want a teammate who's already thinking about how to use these tools to produce more and better content across both social and, eventually, our blog. The blog is just getting started, so blog experience is a bonus, not a requirement. Strong candidates have: - 3+ years in B2B social or content marketing - Real LinkedIn expertise - algorithm, engagement, and employee advocacy - Comfort and creativity with AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, and similar; experience with tools like Jasper, Copy.ai, or StoryChief is a plus) - A creative eye and Canva skills (!!) - Manufacturing, supply chain, or industrial SaaS experience is a plus, not required - most applicants won't have it, and that's fine. We're looking for someone who can immerse in an unfamiliar industry fast. Logistics: Fully remote, worldwide. Ongoing engagement, ideally 2 hours per day, at $XX/hr. You'll work directly with senior marketing leadership. To apply: Send a brief note about your B2B social experience and a link to your portfolio or LinkedIn content examples. If we can't see visual or written examples of your work, we won't be able to move forward. Thanks for taking a look!

Job title: Researcher — U.S. vs. U.K. Tax Benefits & Operating Economics for Mid-Size Private Jets Category: Market Research / Financial Research Type: Fixed-price · Budget: $2,000 · Duration: 6 weeks · Experience level: Intermediate Overview We’re looking for a curious, detail-oriented researcher to produce a structured, professional research report (~10 pages) analyzing the true financial impact of U.S. and U.K. tax breaks on mid-size private jet ownership. Key Research Question How do U.S. and U.K. tax breaks affect the bottom line and hourly operating costs for ownership of mid-size jets? Context The acquisition of a private jet involves a critical financial decision that balances high capital investment with substantial tax incentives and improved operational efficiency. This research project aims to quantify the true financial benefit of corporate jet ownership, moving beyond anecdotal cost savings to a verifiable, data-driven analysis. Objective Analyze the economic and operational feasibility of owning specific mid-size jets — namely the Cessna Citation X, Bombardier Challenger 850, and Bombardier Challenger 605 — by isolating the impact of U.S. federal tax benefits.
