Data Collection Specialist for Potential Clients
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I am in search of a meticulous and proactive Data Collection Specialist to assist with gathering and organizing data on companies that could be potential clients for my business, Aviato.
Your primary tasks will involve:
- Researching venture capital (VC) portfolios and competitor platforms
- Extracting key company details such as contact information, investment history, and company size
- Compiling this information into structured spreadsheets organized by company name
Ideal candidates should be detail-oriented, comfortable with web research, and experienced in creating clean spreadsheets. This project starts as a one-time task with the potential to become recurring work for the right candidate.
Responsibilities
- VC Portfolio Research: Visit websites of specified venture capital firms (e.g., Y Combinator, Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz) and extract data from their portfolio company lists.
- Competitor Mapping: Use publicly available data from competitor platforms (similar to Crunchbase or PitchBook) to identify companies in related industries or "mirror audiences" that align with Aviato’s target market.
- Data Entry: Compile the following details for each company into a Google Sheets spreadsheet:
Company Name
Website URL
Industry/Sector (e.g., SaaS, AI, Logistics)
Funding Stage (e.g., Seed, Series A, etc., if available)
Location (HQ city/country, if listed)
Brief Description (1–2 sentences, if provided)
Potential Fit for Aviato (e.g., “Yes/Maybe/No” based on guidelines we provide)
Quality Assurance: Ensure all data is accurate, consistently formatted, and free of duplicates or errors.
Deliverables: Submit completed spreadsheets via Google Sheets within agreed deadlines.
Requirements
Skills:
- Strong web research skills and ability to navigate VC websites or similar platforms.
- Proficiency in Google Sheets or Excel (e.g., sorting, filtering, maintaining clean formatting).
- Excellent attention to detail and accuracy in data entry.
- Proactive communication (e.g., asking clarifying questions, providing status updates without prompting).
- Timely output (e.g., meeting deadlines consistently and delivering work as promised).
- Basic English proficiency for communication and writing short descriptions.
Experience:
- Prior experience in data collection, market research, or virtual assistance is a plus (but not required).
- Familiarity with startup ecosystems, VC portfolios, or SaaS companies is a bonus.
- Tools: Reliable internet connection and access to a computer. No advanced software required—just a browser and Google Sheets.
- Availability: Ability to complete at least 10–20 hours of work initially, with potential for ongoing tasks.
