Facebook Community Group Poster Needed – 6 to 8 Weeks
Facebook Community Group Poster Needed – Recurring Task, 6 to 8 Weeks We need someone experienced in posting within UK Facebook community groups to help advertise three separate, private vacancies on our behalf: a live-in household role, a room to let and a cook. You would identify and join 15 to 20 relevant groups, then post adverts we supply into them, following each group's own posting rules, with reposting roughly every one to two weeks over a six to eight-week period, and removing every post once we confirm the roles are filled. This is recurring, ongoing work rather than a single post. What we are looking for • Experience posting in UK Facebook community groups, ideally including both general lifestyle groups and South Asian or Gujarati community groups. • An established personal Facebook profile, or more than one so the different vacancies can be treated separately, with existing activity and history behind it, that you can use to find, join and post in community groups. A brand new, empty profile is often blocked from joining groups or flagged as spam by group administrators, so this needs to be an established profile, not one created for this task. • Comfortable posting adverts that do not carry our contact details, and following a short screening process before any details are shared with someone who gets in touch. • Managing the DMs: sending prepared screening questions to anyone who messages the page, judging whether their answers are a genuine fit, then sending our prepared reply with contact details only to those who are, and flagging anything else relevant to us. • Able to start within a short timeframe of being confirmed. • Looking for ongoing projects like this, as we have future similar projects in mind. Budget £15 to £40 a week, or an agreed flat fee for the full six to eight weeks, paid through the platform. Confidentiality This is a private, personal matter, not a commercial listing, so we are keeping detail to a minimum at this stage. A more detailed brief, including the specific adverts, target groups, and any household information will be shared directly and confidentially with whoever we select, before any work begins. To Apply Please reply with your experience posting in UK Facebook community groups, examples of a few past projects that are very similar to this, suggestions you have for the implementation and strategy, your availability over the next six to eight weeks, along with your charging structure.

I need two well-structured PDFs, each running 400-500 pages. One will focus on IT training, the other on Forex trading, yet both must reach an advanced level of depth.

Both documents have to be organized chapter-by-chapter with a clear table of contents, page numbers, and high-resolution illustrations or screenshots throughout.

The second PDF will dive straight into Forex itself, covering market mechanics, technical and fundamental analysis, risk management and practical trading setups. Deliverables • PDF 1 – IT Subjects (400–500 pages, chapter-split, illustrated) • PDF 2 – Advanced Forex trading guide (400–500 pages, chapter-split, illustrated) Please confirm the outline you propose before writing, indicate which sections will be fully original versus curated, and ensure all third-party excerpts are legally usable and referenced. I’ll review drafts per chapter so we can keep the structure tight all the way to final export.

Wix Designer – Creative Redesign & Mobile Optimisation
In short: keep it in Wix, keep the wording, links and functionality intact, but use your creativity and Wix expertise to transform the presentation into something slick, distinctive and professional that I can continue to manage myself. Offers to change to wordpress will be automatcially rejected - WIX experience is a must. The ModuSense website is now fully built in terms of content, links and functionality. I am looking for an experienced designer to take what is already there and give it a professional creative and visual finishing pass — not to rewrite or rebuild the website. All written content and links are final and must not be edited, removed or changed. However, you have creative freedom over the layout and positioning of that content, fonts, imagery, spacing, backgrounds, section styling, buttons and supporting colours. The existing ModuSense purple branding and logo must remain central to the identity, but otherwise I am open to ideas that make the site considerably more striking and polished. Importantly, I am not looking for somebody to simply apply a standard Wix template or generic consultancy-style design. I want genuine creative input that brings the existing content to life and gives ModuSense a distinctive, modern and professional feel — more like a slick specialist construction and technical consultancy than a conventional corporate consultancy website. The website must remain within Wix. I am not interested in proposals to rebuild or migrate the site to WordPress or another platform. I specifically want someone who understands Wix inside and out and can improve the existing build while keeping it straightforward for me to manage. Once the work is complete, I need to be able to log into Wix myself and easily amend content, add photographs, update links or make other routine changes without relying on a developer. I can provide additional photographs and imagery where required. The work must also include a full mobile optimisation pass, ensuring every page, image, gallery, embedded element, menu and button presents and functions professionally across mobile as well as desktop.

10 days ago26 proposalsRemoteFreelance B2B Telemarketer – Niche Software for Photographers
Type: Freelance / trial basis to start (a few hours per week) Location: Remote Budget: Open – please submit your proposal and rate About the role I've developed specialist software for a very niche B2B market: school and nursery photography. The system works on a shared, multi-tenant model (similar in concept to Shopify) — photographers and studios use it to sell their photos online to parents. There are only a handful of companies worldwide offering software built specifically for this market, and the target list in the UK is small and well-defined (roughly 600–800 photographers and studios, ranging from sole traders to multi-photographer companies). This isn't a mass cold-calling job — it's a focused, relationship-led campaign into a tight, identifiable market. What I'm looking for I need an experienced telemarketer to help book demo meetings with prospective clients (studio owners/decision-makers). You'll be calling from a defined, relatively short list rather than working through huge volumes, so quality of conversation matters more than call count. To start, I'd like to run a small batch of test calls so we can both see how the approach lands and refine the pitch before scaling up. What I'd like included in your proposal Your experience with B2B/SaaS software telemarketing or appointment-setting How you'd approach a niche, low-volume prospect list (vs. high-volume cold calling) Your suggested process: research/warm-up, opening pitch, objection handling, and booking the demo How you'd handle common objections (e.g. "we already use a competitor," "not looking to switch software," or "too busy right now / it's our busy season" — we offer full setup support to make switching low-effort, so overcoming this one matters) Your proposed rate/structure (hourly, per meeting booked, or a fixed fee for an initial test batch) Availability for a short call so I can walk you through the product, its USPs, and likely objections before you start About the product (for context) Built from 20+ years of hands-on experience in the school/nursery photography market Sales performance comparable to one of the leading competitor products Key differentiator: significant time savings — one existing studio is already saving 20% on staff time using the software, alongside a range of additional features competitors don't offer We provide full setup support to get new studios onboarded, which helps overcome the "too busy to switch" objection common during their busy season Ideal candidate Proven experience selling or booking meetings for software/SaaS products, ideally B2B Comfortable handling technical/feature-based objections after a short briefing Organised and comfortable working from a defined prospect list rather than a script-and-dial-fast approach Available for a trial run of a few hours a week to start, with scope to grow if it works well If this sounds like a good fit, please get in touch with your relevant experience and how you'd approach this campaign.

Filipino voices wanted for AI project - no experience needed
I'm casting natural-sounding native Filipino voices as part of a larger conversational AI project, and I'm specifically not looking for professional voiceover artists. I want people who sound like real people. The recording is entirely in Filipino. For this one I need female voices that read as roughly 20-30. Mid-range pitch, unhurried, soft, clear and warm. Filipino has to be your native language, spoken the way you actually speak it, not a learned or approximated accent. The only thing that matters is that you sound like a genuine human having a normal, unscripted conversation. If you've done a bit of acting or improv, that's a bonus, but it's not required. What I don't want is anything performed, polished or "announcer-y" - if you sound like you're reading an ad, this isn't for you. One requirement: you must have a decent microphone and a quiet, echo-free recording environment. No voiceover experience needed, but clean audio is essential. To apply, submit a proposal with a short, clear recording of yourself just talking naturally in Filipino, attached or linked. No script needed - talk about your day, a hobby, anything. Please don't say your name in the recording. Include where you're based in your proposal. Anyone selected will be signed under a clear, non-exclusive contract that strictly prohibits deepfakes, impersonation or any unauthorised use. Your voice will never be used without your prior written consent.

13 days ago2 proposalsRemotePhotographer with product experience (technical setting)
We're a deep-tech startup based on Cambridge Heath Road in East London, working on advanced battery recycling. We're looking for a photographer to come to our office for a mixed shoot of technology and materials, plus team photos. We work with battery-grade powders and need someone with close-up/product photography experience, ideally in an industrial, technical, or material-focused setting. Tech photos will include our materials (sheets, fine powders, and liquids), machinery, and a small warehouse-style working space. Our main challenge is that we need the photos to reflect that we’re scaling up, rather than looking lab-scale. As one example, we're thinking powder photographed on top of a barrel rather than in a small jar, or tight close-ups on machinery. Open to your ideas here too. We'd also like a few short (few-second) video clips of the materials, e.g. powder moving in a jar, if that's something you can offer alongside stills. For the team photos, we're a team of 8, and need individual headshots plus a few group shots. We're happy to work with students or photographers building their portfolio, as long as you can show some existing close-up/product work, ideally in a technical setting. Please send a rough quote, either a flat project rate or an hourly rate, plus a separate quote if video is included. Before booking, we'll ask you to confirm you're comfortable signing a short confidentiality agreement (not discussing or disclosing any non-public technical or business details seen or overheard during the shoot) and agree that we own full commercial rights to the final images. You're welcome to use them in your own portfolio, with the exception of any specific images we flag as restricted at the time.
a month ago8 proposalsOn-site in London, GBComparative Science Literature Review
I need a well-structured literature review in the broad domain of Science and Technology that goes beyond a simple summary. The goal is to place the most influential studies side by side, critique them, and reveal where the field still lacks consensus. Your work should weigh methodologies, data sets, and conclusions against one another so readers can see how each paper advances—or contradicts—the next. To keep the review usable for publication, please ground every point in peer-reviewed journal articles, major conference papers, or reputable pre-prints. Accuracy, clarity, and strong academic writing are essential; no original experiments are required, only careful comparative synthesis. Deliverables • 3,000–4,000 word narrative review organised by clear sub-headings • A comparative table or matrix that highlights for each key study: objectives, methods, data sources, findings, and stated limitations • Reference list formatted in APA 7th (or IEEE if you prefer—let me know) • Turnitin similarity report below 10 % and proof of proper citation throughout Acceptance Criteria • Every claim backed by a properly cited source • Logical flow from introduction through discussion of gaps and future directions • Zero AI-generated hallucinations; facts must match the cited papers If you have recent experience compiling comparative reviews in science or engineering domains and can deliver crisp, insightful analysis, I’d love to see a brief outline of how you would structure the paper and a couple of sample references you’d include.
