B2B Research & Outreach Coordinator — Wealth Advisory / Family Office (Los Angeles Focus) OVERVIEW: I am a luxury residential real estate strategist in Los Angeles with 30 years of experience advising buyers and sellers on high-value properties ($3M–$30M+). I am building a targeted outreach program to connect with wealth advisors and family office professionals in the Los Angeles area who advise clients on significant residential real estate decisions. This is NOT a standard real estate VA role. I do not need help with MLS listings, Zillow leads, or open houses. I need someone who can build a highly targeted, verified contact database of the right professionals — and manage a structured outreach sequence on my behalf. WHAT YOU WILL DO: 1. CONTACT RESEARCH — Identify wealth advisors, family office principals, and private client advisors at firms in the Los Angeles area — Find and verify contact information (name, title, firm, email, phone, LinkedIn) using Apollo.io, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and other sources — Build and maintain a clean contact database in Google Sheets — Research each contact briefly before outreach (firm size, client focus, any mutual connections) — Target volume: 15–20 new verified contacts per week 2. OUTREACH MANAGEMENT — Send personalized outreach emails on my behalf using templates I provide — Customize each email with the contact's name, firm, and any relevant detail — Track all outreach activity and responses in the contact database — Follow up on the exact sequence I specify (Day 1 / Day 7 / Day 14) — Flag all replies to me immediately for personal response 3. SCHEDULING — Coordinate meeting times when a contact expresses interest — Send calendar invites and confirmations — Prepare a one-page briefing on each contact before every meeting 4. WEEKLY REPORTING — Send me a concise weekly report every Friday: contacts added, emails sent, replies received, meetings scheduled WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR: — Experience building B2B contact lists for professional services, financial services, or wealth management firms — Comfortable using Apollo.io, LinkedIn, and Google Sheets — Excellent written English — you will be sending emails representing me — Detail-oriented and reliable — accuracy matters more than speed — Available during US Pacific Time business hours (at least partial overlap) — NOT required: real estate experience TRIAL PROJECT (PAID): Before hiring, I will ask the top 2–3 candidates to complete a paid trial: research and deliver 5 verified contacts matching my target profile. This takes approximately 1–2 hours. I will pay for this work regardless of whether I hire you. HOURS: 10–15 hours per week to start, with potential to grow. RATE: Please state your hourly rate. Preferred range $15–$25/hour. DURATION: Ongoing. TO APPLY: Please answer the following in your proposal: 1. Describe a specific project where you built a B2B contact list for a professional services or financial services client. What tools did you use and what were the results? 2. What is your experience with Apollo.io or LinkedIn Sales Navigator? 3. What is your availability in US Pacific Time hours?

Scope of Work I'm looking for an experienced researcher to identify and verify business owner email addresses for companies I provide. For each company, I'll supply: Business name Owner name City State Sometimes an existing email address Your Responsibilities 1. Verify Existing Emails If I provide an email address, confirm that it is active, current, and belongs to the correct owner using multiple sources such as RocketReach, ZoomInfo, Spokeo, PeopleFinders, LinkedIn, company websites, and other reliable databases. 2. Find Missing Emails If no email is provided, locate the owner's best verified business email. If a reliable business email cannot be found, locate their best verified personal email. It is very important that you know how to distinguish legitimate owner email addresses from generic, abandoned, forwarding, or decoy email addresses. The only information I need returned is the owner's verified email address. 3. Send Outreach Emails After verifying or locating the email address, personalize the email template I provide by inserting the owner's name and company name, then send it on my behalf. 4. Email Deliverability & Tracking This is a critical requirement. You must use a professionally configured email domain and sending platform with excellent deliverability that follows email authentication best practices (SPF, DKIM, and DMARC) to maximize inbox placement and minimize spam filtering. I also need full visibility into the outreach. The email platform must allow me to log in and verify which emails have been sent, delivered, opened (where tracking is available), replied to, or bounced through a platform such as Streak, HubSpot, Instantly, Smartlead, or a similar solution. Please describe the platform you use and how I will be able to access these metrics. Compensation This is an hourly position. However, productivity will be measured by the approximate number of companies researched, verified, and emailed per hour.

This is a highly structured, volume-based prospecting task. Bases on a 20 hour work week we are looking for 500 or more leads a week as a goal. If you have experience with deep-web research, B2B lead generation, and working with strict data formatting in Google Sheets, we want to hear from you. Key Responsibilities: • Conduct systematic, zip code-by-zip code research using search engines, local directories, map data, and industry licensing databases to identify group health insurance brokerages. • Identify and target the Sales Leadership contact at each brokerage (e.g., VP of Sales, Sales Director, Agency Principal). • Locate accurate, verified direct contact details for those individuals. • Input data perfectly into a structured excel Sheet with zero formatting errors. *** A link to a shared excel document will be provided. This is where all data will be populated. Required Data Points (Template Provided Below): For every single brokerage identified, you must collect: 1. Agency/Brokerage Name 2.

We're a hybrid virtual assistant agency and operations consultancy. We help small business owners (mechanics, e-commerce sellers, franchise operators, brokers) get their inbox, calendar, systems, and back office under control so they can actually run their business instead of drowning in it. We've built a 6 year, $600k+ revenue partnership with an Etsy seller. We took one franchise owner's email from 85,000 unread to zero. We've been formally titled Chief of Staff by a CEO client. We're not a task rabbit service. We're the operations team our clients wish they'd hired years ago. We're growing fast and need a sharp person to keep our pipeline full of the right people. The role This is not a sales or closing role. You won't pitch our services or negotiate contracts. Your job is to find the right prospects and get them into our pipeline. From there, we take it: discovery calls, proposals, closing. You decide the channel mix. Upwork, LinkedIn, niche communities, cold outreach, referrals, whatever gets results. We're not interested in dictating your hours or your method. We're paying for outcomes. What the job actually is Find business owners who fit our ideal client profile, get them to express real interest, and hand them off to us. That's the job. How you get there is yours to figure out. We'll give you the targeting criteria, the proof points, and the red flags to avoid, and trust you to run the process. Our proven verticals (lead with these): Automotive and trades (mechanic, towing, fleet, impound) E-commerce (Etsy, Shopify, especially sellers doing $200k to $2M a year) Professional services (legal, financial, brokerage) Franchise operations (multi-unit owners, 2 or more locations) Ideal client profile: Solo founder or small team, 2 to 10 employees Needs ongoing support, not a one off task Has real budget and values reliability over the cheapest option Retainer minded Hard pass, red flags to avoid: Vague or chaotic scope, too many unrelated asks Budget signals under roughly $1k a month for the described work Wants daily check ins or micromanagement Disrespectful to contractors Pay structure Base: $20/hr, 5 to 10 hours a week. This covers your ongoing prospecting time and keeps things steady even in slower weeks. Bonus: $300 for every lead you bring in that signs as a paying client. To keep this simple and fair, any lead you source and log in our shared tracker qualifies for the bonus if it converts within 90 days of being logged, even if the deal closes after our working relationship has ended. No bonus for calls booked, meetings set, or leads marked "in progress." We're only rewarding actual conversions. We're not interested in a packed calendar of bad fit calls. We're interested in the right two or three conversations a month that turn into real clients. Who we're looking for Proven lead generation or prospecting experience: Upwork, LinkedIn outreach, B2B research, or similar Strong judgment on what makes a good fit prospect, not just an active one Strong written English, clear and fast to act on Self directed. This is async first. You own your process, we own the close. Bonus points if you have: Experience in agency or B2B service business lead gen Familiarity with Monday.com A track record of finding leads in trades, e-commerce, franchise, or professional services How we'll work together Weekly 20 to 30 minute check in to review what's in motion and calibrate targeting Shared Monday.com board for live pipeline tracking Fast feedback. If something's off target, you'll know within days, not months. Slack messaging for daily communication/questions To apply Tell us: A specific example of a lead you found that wasn't obvious at first glance, and how it converted or why it didn't Your experience with Upwork, LinkedIn outreach, or similar prospecting work Your availability for an 8 to 10 hour a week ongoing role We move fast on good applicants. If this sounds like you, apply today.
