I run a podcast editing service for solo finance and investing hosts. I need a detail-oriented VA or lead generation professional to build me a clean, verified lead list of podcasters who fit a specific profile. This is research + verification work, not scraping — I'm paying for quality, and I check every row. What you'll do Find solo-hosted podcasts in the personal finance / investing / money / entrepreneurship space and log qualifying ones into a spreadsheet I provide. Each lead must be verified against my checklist before you add it. A lead only qualifies if ALL of these are true: Solo host (one main voice — skip co-hosted and interview panel shows) Topic is finance, investing, money, or entrepreneurship Published a new episode within the last 21 days Has at least 10 episodes total Audio sounds unedited or rough (background noise, uneven volume, echo, no clean intro) You can find a real contact method — direct email preferred, or an active personal Instagram/Twitter/website contact Not already professionally edited (no "edited by" credit, no polished produced intro) For each lead, log: Podcast name Host name Show topic / niche Contact method (email or profile link) Where it's hosted (Apple, Spotify, etc.) + link Last episode date Total episode count One line: what sounds wrong with the audio What I'm looking for Careful, honest work — I'd rather get 10 real leads than 50 padded ones Good enough English to judge topic and listen for audio quality Comfortable using Google Sheets To apply, answer these (don't skip — applications that ignore this are declined): Have you done podcast or lead research before? Send me ONE example lead that fits the checklist above, with all fields filled in. This is a paid-style sample so I can see your judgment. Pay: $1.50 per qualified lead. Start with a trial batch of 25 leads, ongoing work if the quality holds.

Hi, I can surely assist you in building a clean, verified lead list of solo finance, investing, money, and entrepreneurship podcasters. I understand that this is quality-focused research rather than simple scraping, so I will manually verify every lead against your full checklist before adding it to the spreadsheet. I have experience with web research, lead generation, data verification, and Google Sheets. I will check hosting platforms, recent episode activity, episode counts, hosting format, contact information, production quality, and whether professional editing is already being used. I will also provide a concise and honest note explaining the specific audio issue for every qualifying podcast. I am comfortable starting with your 25-lead trial and prioritizing accuracy over volume. I will make sure every submitted row contains complete, verified information and meets all requirements before delivery. Questions: Do you have a preferred Google Sheets template or additional verification sources you want me to use? For audio quality, should I prioritize specific issues such as noise, echo, inconsistent volume, or poor editing? Sample lead: I can provide one fully verified qualifying lead through Freelancer chat after confirming your preferred format and verification criteria.

< Hi - Abror here > "25 VERIFIED PODCAST LEADS" — you need real solo finance/investing hosts that pass every qualification, not a padded contact list. I’d verify each show against the full checklist before adding it: solo host, recent episode, 10+ episodes, rough/unedited audio, no professional editing credit, and a genuine contact method. I’d record the evidence cleanly in your Google Sheet so every row can be checked quickly. Would you like the first 25-lead trial to follow your checklist exactly, including the one-line audio-quality note for every lead? Looking forward to working with you.

Hi, I can help you with accurate podcast lead research and verification. I have strong experience in Data Entry, Web Research, Lead Generation, Excel and Google Sheets, and I understand that quality is more important than simply providing a large number of leads. I will manually research and verify each podcast against your complete checklist: • Solo host only • Finance, investing, money or entrepreneurship niche • New episode published within the last 21 days • Minimum 10 episodes • Unedited/raw audio • Valid direct email or active personal contact method • Accurate podcast, host, niche, platform and contact details For every qualified lead, I will provide all requested fields in a clean Google Sheet, including the latest episode date, total episode count, hosting platform/link and a clear note about the audio quality. I will start with the 25-lead trial batch and carefully verify every lead before submission. I prefer delivering fewer genuine and properly qualified leads rather than padded or inaccurate data. I am ready to start immediately and can provide a sample lead first. Best regards, Syed Sajid

Hello, You need a list of solo‑hosted finance podcasts that have released a new episode in the last 21 days. I’ll manually listen to each episode’s intro to spot the unedited, rough audio you require, then log the verified contact info directly into your Google Sheet – a human ear is the only reliable way to judge the sound quality. I’ll also check the episode description for any “edited by” credit to ensure the show isn’t already professionally edited. Do you prefer the contact method column to show email first, then social links if email is unavailable? Looking forward to working with you. Bojan

Hello, i’m Fernando, a senior full‑stack developer with extensive experience in data research and lead generation. i’ve spent years building precise prospect lists for niche markets, ensuring every row meets strict quality standards. i understand you need a curated list of solo‑hosted finance podcasts where the audio still shows raw production. the goal is to target hosts who likely need your editing service, so the list must reflect both content relevance and audio quality – a subtle but powerful way to generate qualified sales opportunities. my approach is to manually browse podcast directories, listen to the latest episodes, and cross‑check each entry against your checklist before entering it into your Google Sheet. this hands‑on method avoids the pitfalls of automated scraping, guarantees accurate contact info, and creates a maintainable workflow you can replicate for future batches. recently i compiled a 30‑lead list for a fintech webinar series, filtering by solo hosts, recent episode dates, and unedited audio cues. the client reported a 40% increase in conversion because the leads matched their service niche perfectly. i look forward to delivering a high‑quality trial batch and establishing a reliable pipeline for your editing service. thanks
