Project for UpWork / Freelance Prospecting
SARAL is a creator marketing platform used by 200+ brands. We're looking for a detail-oriented researcher to build qualified prospect lists for our sales team.
What you'll do
- Research consumer AI apps (photo/video, fitness, education, productivity) using the App Store, Crunchbase, and the TikTok Creative Center
- Check each app's ads in the Meta Ad Library: count active ads, spot creator-style ads (real people on camera, "Paid partnership" labels), and note how many new ads launched in the last 30 days
- Score each app using our simple rubric and add a one-line note on their ads
- Find 2 decision-makers per app (founder, Head of Growth, or similar) on Apollo and LinkedIn
- Deliver 50 companies in batch #1.
- We need ~800 total companies with 2 contacts at each. If batch #1 is good, we’ll give you the full project.
Prospecting Criteria/Filters
- Segment: Consumer AI subscription apps (photo/video, fitness, nutrition, study, language, companion apps), selling in the US/EU.
- Behavior filter: 20+ active Meta ads, at least some creator-style ads live.
- Persona/Titles needed per company:
- Founder/CEO
- CMO
- Creative Strategist
- Filters:
- Raised series A funding round in the last 12 months.
- Example List of companies
Our recommended prospecting approach
We want to find consumer AI companies that run ads on meta with creators in them.
- Step one should be to make a list of companies that match all other criteria aside from the “do they run partnership ads” filter
- Industry: Consumer or Prosumer AI company
- Funding: Raised Series A in the last 6 months
- Once done - manually check their Meta Ad Libary if they have any ads with creator UGC in them.
- Under ad library, ensure Country = United States and Category = All Ads. Then search for the company’s name.
- Example of DoctronicAI with influencer ugc in their ads:
- If there are no creators in the ads, then it is not a fit and must be disqualified.
- Add a link to their ad library in the prospect sheet.
- If all above are satisfied, then enrich and find contacts of CEO, CMO/Head of Growth, Creative Strategist.
