Supplier Outreach for Oil Collection

I need someone who can act as my on-the-ground representative and canvas hotels, restaurants, and food-processing facilities across the state. Your mission is to find decision-makers, introduce our new used-cooking-oil collection service, and gauge each business’s appetite for joining a future pick-up program.

What you’ll do
• Build a state-wide list of qualifying businesses through web research, industry directories, and phone discovery.
• Reach out by phone, email, or in-person visit to owners, general managers, or operations staff.
• Briefly present who we are, why responsible oil disposal matters, and how our free collection service can save them money and hassle.
• Record whether they are interested, undecided, or not a fit, and—when possible—note their estimated monthly oil volume.
• Keep concise notes on every touchpoint so I can pick up the conversation later without missing context.

Deliverables
• A spreadsheet (Excel or Google Sheets) containing:
– Business name and address
– Contact name, role, phone, and email
– Conversation status and next-step date
– Estimated litres/pounds of used oil per month (if shared)
• A short summary highlighting the most promising leads and any trends you noticed.

Success means I receive a clean, well-organized contact database and a clear picture of who is ready—or nearly ready—to partner with us on used oil collection across the state.
