Build a researched database of ~30 podcast, speaking, and expert-contribution opportunities for the founder, plus a top-10 shortlist and a follow-up tracker.
Conscious Matters® helps ambitious women tame the inner critic behind perfectionism, high-functioning anxiety, burnout, and self-doubt. Our founder, Melissa D. Barry, works with high achievers as an Inner Critic Specialist, and we want to grow her visibility as a podcast guest, speaker, workshop facilitator, and expert contributor.
We need a pipeline, not a long list. The focus is on relevant and realistic opportunities: shows, stages, publications, and communities where Melissa's expertise would actually land with the right audience.
Deliverable 1 — Opportunity Research Database. Around 30 qualified opportunities across podcasts, speaking slots, workshops, conferences, expert interviews, publications, and professional communities. For each row: name, opportunity type, website or application link, publicly available contact name and email, brief description, target audience, why it fits Melissa and Conscious Matters®, application requirements, deadline, any fees, recommended next step, and a priority rating of High / Medium / Low.
Deliverable 2 — Top 10 Shortlist. Pull the strongest 10 from the database and write a short paragraph on each explaining why it's a particularly good fit.
Deliverable 3 — Follow-Up Tracker. A simple sheet with columns for opportunity, date identified, contact info, status, follow-up date, next step, and notes, so we can work the pipeline after the project ends.
You'll get a brief on Melissa's positioning, target audience, past appearances, and the topics she speaks to. We'll set up a shared workspace for the database and tracker, and Melissa will review the top 10 with you before you finalize.
