Shopify Developer Required –Artwork Configurator

I am looking for an experienced Shopify developer/designer to create a premium contemporary website for an established artist. The website will showcase original artworks and a new collection of personalised lettered resin artworks, which customers can configure and purchase online. The overall appearance should be minimal, contemporary, gallery-led and highly visual, using large photographs of artworks displayed in contemporary interiors. It must work exceptionally well on both desktop and mobile. CUSTOM ARTWORK CONFIGURATOR This is the most important element of the project. Customers need to create their artwork by selecting: 1. Artwork Size * 400 × 400 mm * 500 × 500 mm * 600 × 600 mm Each size will have a different base price. 2. Artwork Colour Choice of predetermined colours, preferably displayed as visual colour swatches. 3. Personalised Words/Phrase Customers enter their own wording. The system must calculate an additional price per letter/character and add this automatically to the artwork price. Different artwork sizes may have different maximum character limits. 4. Frame Colour Choice of three frame colours/finishes, each potentially having a different price. DYNAMIC PRICING The price should automatically calculate: Artwork size + options + number of letters + frame = final price The customer should see the price update immediately when changing their selections. All prices/options must be easily editable through Shopify without requiring a developer. LIVE ARTWORK PREVIEW Ideally, customers should see an approximate live visual representation of their artwork while configuring it. For example, entering their phrase and changing the artwork or frame colour would update the preview. I am open to recommendations regarding whether this should be custom-developed or use an existing Shopify product personalisation/configurator app. WEBSITE DESIGN The homepage should include: * Large in-situ images of artworks in contemporary interiors * Examples of available artworks * Prominent Create Your Own Artwork section * Original artworks for sale * Artist biography/story * Social media/Instagram integration * Premium contemporary gallery presentation There will also be a section selling one-off original artworks with multiple photographs, dimensions, medium, description, price, framing and delivery information. Sold original artworks should have the option to remain displayed and be marked SOLD. SHOPIFY / E-COMMERCE The website must be fully integrated with Shopify, including: * Shopify checkout/payments * Apple Pay/Google Pay where available * UK and international sales * Delivery calculated at checkout * VAT/tax configuration * Order confirmation emails * Discount codes * Inventory management * Customer order records The customer’s complete personalised specification — wording, size, colour and frame — must be clearly recorded against their Shopify order. MOBILE The mobile experience is extremely important as much of the traffic will come from social media. The complete artwork configuration and purchasing process must be simple and intuitive on smartphones. FUTURE DEVELOPMENT The website should allow additional sizes, colours, frames, lettering styles and artwork collections to be introduced later. It should also have good foundations for Google SEO, Analytics, Meta/Facebook tracking, email marketing and abandoned-cart functionality. I need to be able to manage the website myself after launch, including adding artworks, changing prices/options, uploading photographs and editing content. DESIGN DIRECTION Minimal / contemporary / premium / gallery quality / highly visual. It should feel like a high-end contemporary art/design brand rather than a generic Shopify store. PLEASE INCLUDE IN YOUR PROPOSAL Please provide: * Examples of relevant Shopify websites you have developed * Examples of product configurators/personalisation systems * How you propose building the artwork configurator * Whether you recommend bespoke development or a Shopify app * How the live artwork preview would work * Estimated total cost * Any ongoing app/software costs * Estimated timeframe * Post-launch support * Confirmation I will have full Shopify admin access and ownership of any bespoke code Please only apply if you have strong Shopify development experience, ideally involving personalised products, dynamic pricing or product configurators.

Finalize Flutter Media App Part-Time Flutter/Node Developer

Global Kirtan App (GKA) is a non-denominational platform for kirtan, sacred sound, and bhakti practice, built for a global audience spanning devotional practitioners, yoga communities, sound healers, and spiritual-but-not-religious users. It's a freemium mobile app combining regular practices, audio/video streaming, a lyrics library with translations, tutorials, event discovery (map + calendar), facilitator and community profiles, and an instrument shop. This isn't a from-scratch build. A working Flutter app already exists with a live backend, and it's been through an independent technical audit — we know its real strengths and its real problems. We're looking for a developer to pick it up from here. The Role This is deliberately not a full-time position, and we can't offer at this time. What we're looking for instead is someone willing to become our standing point of contact for this codebase — available reliably when work comes in, understanding upfront that hours will vary month to month and neither side is committing to fixed employment. If you need guaranteed steady hours, this probably isn't the right fit; if you're comfortable with an ongoing, flexible working relationship and want to be the person who knows this app inside out over time, it might be exactly right. There's no guarantee here — but a developer who proves reliable and becomes a genuine fit for this project would be our first call for full-time or expanded part-time work, once we're actually in a position to offer it. First phase — roughly 20 hours: • Fix the known issues from our existing audit. • Begin work on a new Practice tool — a planned addition to the app's core navigation. Full specification shared once we've agreed terms. After that — ongoing, unpredictable: • Common maintenance tasks • Bug fixes, small feature additions, dependency and security updates, as they come up • Some months will be quiet, others busier — we're looking for someone who can flex with that rather than needing a fixed retainer Compensation Compensation is set at Indian developer market rates. Whether we structure it as hourly or fixed-per-requirement will be decided together based on what makes sense for each piece of work — we're open to either. Confirmed Tech Stack Mobile app (Flutter/Dart): flutter_riverpod (state management), go_router (navigation), dio (networking), just_audio + audio_service (media playback and session handling), youtube_player_iframe (embedded video), flutter_map, flutter_secure_storage (encrypted credential storage). Release builds use R8 obfuscation and are properly signed. Backend (as specified): Node.js + TypeScript modular monolith, PostgreSQL, versioned REST API (/api/v1/), JWT-based authentication. What We Need From You • Real, demonstrable Flutter/Dart experience — ideally including audio or media-heavy apps • Comfort inheriting and working inside an existing codebase, not just building greenfield • Honest communication about your own actual availability — we'd much rather hear "I can only do a few hours some months" upfront than have someone overcommit and go quiet later • A genuine interest in an ongoing relationship with this project, not a single ticket — we're picking a person to grow with the app, not just closing a task • Comfortable working respectfully with devotional and sacred content across multiple traditions • Willingness to sign an NDA and assign IP (Intellectual Property) ownership of delivered work to us How We'll Work • Full Git repository access, normal commit/PR discipline • We'll share our existing independent technical audit with serious applicants (under NDA) so you know exactly what you're inheriting before committing to anything • Payment structure and rate agreed in writing before the first task begins To Apply, Please Share 1. Flutter/mobile projects you've built or maintained, especially anything involving audio/media playback 2. Your honest, realistic read on your own availability over the next 6–12 months 3. Any experience picking up and maintaining someone else's existing codebase (not just building your own)

We are looking for an experienced, confident and professional telephone outreach specialist to make approximately 25–30 targeted calls to local councils, housing associations and other public-sector/government-level organisations.

Where appropriate, try to establish whether the organisation currently uses external contractors for mould surveying/remediation and how new contractors are considered or appointed. Record useful information from every call. Important We do not want someone simply sending cold emails to generic council email addresses. We believe that a short, professional telephone conversation first is much more effective. Once the correct person has been identified and, ideally, we have their direct email address, we can follow up with our company information, website and introduction. If the person you speak to says they are not the correct contact, we want you to ask who the appropriate person or department would be and try to obtain their contact details. The type of person we're looking for You must be: A confident and professional telephone communicator. Comfortable speaking to councils, housing associations and public-sector organisations. Experienced in B2B telephone outreach, appointment setting or business development. Able to speak naturally rather than reading a rigid script. Persistent but polite. Comfortable dealing with receptionists and navigating larger organisations. Good at asking the right questions to find the correct contact. Able to accurately record names, departments, telephone numbers, email addresses and relevant information. Previous experience contacting UK councils, local authorities, housing associations, government departments or other public-sector organisations would be a major advantage. What we will provide We will provide: Full information about our company and services. Our website and company information. A clear explanation of exactly what we do. Suggested talking points. A simple call-recording/reporting format for you to complete after each call. You don't need to be an expert in mould remediation. However, you must be able to understand our services well enough to explain them clearly and professionally. Expected outcome For each call, we would like as much useful information as possible, including: Organisation: Person spoken to: Department: Decision-maker/contact name: Direct email: Telephone number: Current contractor/procurement information (if available): Any relevant information: Recommended follow-up: The ultimate aim is to build a high-quality database of relevant council and housing association contacts and create genuine opportunities for our company to introduce its services. Number of calls Initially, we are looking for approximately 25–30 targeted calls. If the first batch produces good-quality contacts and conversations, there is potential for this to become ongoing work, with additional organisations and larger call lists provided. When applying, please tell us: Your previous experience with telephone outreach/B2B calling. Whether you have previously contacted councils, local authorities, housing associations or other public-sector organisations. Your experience dealing with decision-makers and navigating larger organisations. Your proposed price for completing the initial 25–30 calls. We are looking for quality rather than simply quantity, so please only apply if you are confident speaking professionally to UK public-sector organisations.

Creator & Affiliate Outreach Specialist for Mobile Apps

We are looking for a hands-on Creator & Affiliate Outreach Specialist to help grow our mobile app portfolio through relevant creators, influencers and affiliate partners. This is not a mass-email or copy-paste outreach role. We want someone who can identify creators who genuinely match the audience of the product, research them properly, find the correct contact method, create personalised outreach and help turn conversations into real partnerships.

Which platforms and tools do you normally use to research creators and find verified contact information? Would you personally complete the research and outreach, or would any part be outsourced? Are you comfortable writing individual personalised outreach for selected creators rather than sending the same message to everyone? How do you normally follow up with creators who do not respond?

Freelance Motion Designer — Abstract Animation

1-minute sample, followed by 8 videos of approximately 5 minutes each About the project We’re looking for an experienced motion designer to create a series of highly abstract, visually sophisticated animated videos, built around supplied voiceovers. The project starts with a one-minute sample to establish the visual direction and animation quality. Once the sample is approved, you will produce eight full-length videos, approximately five minutes each. We’re looking for the precision, restraint, and polish associated with premium Apple or Meta motion design—but with an original visual language. Creative direction Very abstract. Minimal. Crisp. Beautifully animated. Rather than showing literal objects or illustrating the narration word for word, use movement, shape, light, texture, and composition to communicate ideas. The visuals might include flowing ribbons, transforming geometric forms, translucent layers, shifting patterns, fluid connections, or carefully controlled particles. These are starting points, not a prescribed style—we’re looking for someone who can bring a distinctive creative approach. Do not use paintings, framed artworks, photographs, characters, literal scenes, or stock-footage montages. Avoid generic explainer icons, dashboard-style interfaces, and template-driven animation. The animation should feel intentional and cohesive, with sharp details, considered lighting, smooth transitions, and confident use of negative space. Typography can be used sparingly, but the piece should be driven primarily by abstract motion rather than text on screen. Abstract should not mean random: changes in rhythm, form, scale, and connection should support the ideas and emotional progression of the voiceover. Project structure Phase 1: One-minute sample Create a fully animated 60-second sample, using supplied narration. This is not just a storyboard, a set of still images, or a slideshow. It should demonstrate the proposed visual language, animation quality, pacing, transitions, and synchronization with the voiceover. We will agree on a concept and a small selection of style frames before you animate the sample. The approved sample will establish the design and quality standard for the full series. Phase 2: Eight five-minute videos Following sample approval, produce eight videos of approximately five minutes each—around 40 minutes of finished animation in total. The series should feel visually consistent while introducing enough variation to keep each video engaging. We need someone who can sustain a strong abstract visual language across longer sequences, rather than repeating a short loop or stretching a few ideas. Audio and materials We will provide the scripts, voiceovers, and available reference material. Keep the supplied voiceovers unchanged. Do not rewrite, rerecord, replace, speed up, or retime the narration. Build the visual pacing around the existing delivery. Any additional music or sound design should be agreed upon before use. Deliverables Provide the completed one-minute sample and, following approval, all eight full-length videos. Final delivery should include high-quality 16:9 MP4 exports at a minimum of 1920 × 1080, plus organized, editable project files and associated assets. Please identify any third-party assets, licensing requirements, or generative tools used. Final work must be suitable for commercial use. Who we’re looking for You should have a strong portfolio in abstract motion design, experimental animation, premium technology films, or design-led 2D/3D work. Excellent composition, timing, transitions, and attention to detail are essential. We’re particularly interested in designers who can develop an original visual system and carry it through a substantial series. After Effects, Cinema 4D, Blender, Houdini, or an equivalent professional workflow are welcome. To apply Please send 2–3 relevant examples of abstract animation, clearly stating your role in each, and a brief description of your proposed approach. Include separate pricing for the one-minute sample and the eight five-minute videos, along with your availability, estimated production schedule, revision allowance, and source-file handover details. We’re looking for a creative partner for the full series—not just a one-off sample.

Senior Full-Stack Developer for Premium Marketplace Platform

We are developing the Pre-Launch MVP of a new digital marketplace for pre-owned and high-value goods and are looking for an experienced, hands-on Senior Full-Stack Developer / Technical Lead to review the existing specification and potentially build the MVP. This is not a standard e-commerce website or simple listings marketplace. The product includes custom buyer/seller workflows, structured buyer demand, seller inventory and supply connectivity, matching, private inventory, progressive item readiness, communications, notifications and administration. The scope is the Pre-Launch MVP — NOT the complete future Commercial Launch platform. The MVP will operate with real users, buyer demand, sellers and real supply to validate the marketplace before commercial transactions are activated. Pre-Launch MVP The MVP will include: • Buyer and seller onboarding • Structured and persistent buyer search/demand workflows • Seller inventory and supply connectivity • Manual and bulk inventory ingestion • Private/hidden inventory • Configurable, category-specific item information • Progressive item-data completion • Demand-to-supply matching • Seller activation/confirmation when relevant demand exists • Buyer-visible relevant opportunities • Item condition information, photos/evidence • Communications and meaningful notifications • Buyer/seller account areas • Admin and operational controls Detailed workflows and business rules are already documented and will be shared with shortlisted candidates. Technical Direction Preferred stack: Next.js / React / TypeScript Supabase / PostgreSQL API-based third-party integrations We need strong experience in complex marketplace/web applications, database architecture, authentication/permissions, Row Level Security, state-driven workflows, matching/inventory systems, asynchronous processes/webhooks, APIs, concurrency/data integrity, admin tooling, security, performance and maintainable architecture. Commercial Launch — Later Stage The complete transactional platform is not part of the immediate MVP build. Live payments/payouts, full transaction execution, independent authentication, high-value logistics, shipment insurance, refunds/disputes and related provider integrations belong to a later Commercial Launch development stage. However, the MVP must be designed modularly so these capabilities can later be added without rebuilding the core marketplace. Premium UI A professional Brand Identity and Design System will be created separately by a specialist designer. The developer is not responsible for creating the Brand Identity, but must implement the supplied Design System across the MVP to a premium production standard, including responsive desktop/tablet/mobile UI, reusable components, polished interactions and performance-conscious front-end development. Please provide examples of premium interfaces you personally implemented. First Step — Technical Review / Gap Analysis Before full MVP development is awarded, the shortlisted developer will review our detailed documentation and: • assess the architecture and requirements; • identify technical gaps, risks and dependencies; • recommend the implementation approach; • distinguish what must be built now from what only needs architectural preparation for later; • propose milestones and timeline; • provide a fixed-price quotation for the Pre-Launch MVP. We are not requesting a quotation for the complete future platform at this stage. We prefer an individual senior developer / hands-on technical lead, not someone providing only high-level advice. Please include: Relevant marketplace/workflow-heavy applications you personally built. Next.js/React/TypeScript experience. Supabase/PostgreSQL experience. Relevant matching, inventory, permissions or API experience. Premium UI examples. Whether you personally develop the project or work through a team/agency. Your approach to the initial technical review. Current availability. Confirmation that initial assessment and communication can be handled in writing through the platform. Detailed documentation will be provided only to shortlisted candidates.

Still Your Mind - Business Development

Still Your Mind (SYM) is an established workplace wellbeing service providing accessible, confidential 1:1 emotional wellbeing support to employees. The approach is deliberately simple and human. Rather than waiting until someone is struggling enough to seek formal mental health support, SYM gives employees a confidential space to talk, reflect, reset and develop practical ways of managing the pressures of work and life. Mindfulness sits at the heart of the approach, alongside practical emotional wellbeing strategies. Where the business is now I have grown Still Your Mind organically and have now been delivering the service successfully within an organisation for several years. It works. Employees use the service, engagement has grown, and the relationship with the organisation has continued. I now want to take what I've learned, package the model more clearly and introduce Still Your Mind to other organisations. I'm therefore looking for someone who can help me open those doors. Who I want to reach The main decision-makers are: HR Directors / HR Managers Heads of People / People Directors Employee Wellbeing Leads Heads of Employee Experience Occupational Health / Health & Wellbeing Leads Senior leaders responsible for employee wellbeing Initially, I would like to focus on UK organisations with enough employees to justify an ongoing wellbeing provision. The proposition Many organisations already have EAPs, wellbeing platforms and mental health resources. Still Your Mind isn't intended to replace them. It fills the gap around them. There are employees who are struggling, overwhelmed or underperforming but who don't necessarily see themselves as needing formal mental health support. Others simply won't reach out to an EAP. SYM provides a lower-barrier, human alternative: confidential 1:1 wellbeing conversations that employees can access before problems become bigger. The aim is not simply to support people when they're struggling. It's to help people function better, feel better and thrive at work. For the organisation, that has the potential to support engagement, performance, retention and absence prevention while demonstrating a genuine investment in employee wellbeing. What makes SYM different The service is personal rather than platform-led. Employees aren't being directed towards another app, website or library of resources. They have access to a real person and a confidential space where the support adapts to the individual. The SYM approach is built around three stages: Awareness → Space → Choice Helping people notice what's happening, create enough mental space to respond differently, and make choices that support their wellbeing. What I need from an appointment setter I'm not looking for someone to hard-sell wellbeing services. I'm looking for an experienced B2B appointment setter/business developer who can identify appropriate organisations, reach the right HR/People decision-makers and create enough interest for them to agree to an introductory conversation with me. Your job is to open the door. My job is to have the conversation and sell the service. Initially, I'd like to run a small, measurable pilot rather than commit to a large monthly retainer. I'd therefore be interested in either: a small number of calling/outreach hours; a short pilot campaign; or a modest base fee combined with payment for qualified appointments that actually attend. The measure of success for me is straightforward: Good-quality conversations in my diary with HR/People decision-makers who have a genuine interest in improving employee wellbeing. If we can demonstrate that the approach generates those conversations, I am looking for someone I can continue working with as Still Your Mind grows.

B2B Telemarketing – Event Sponsor Lead Generation

ABOUT US Cyber Risk International (CRI.ie) is Platinum Sponsor of the European Digital Governance Summit (EDGS), hosted by the ICTTF.org International Cyber Threat Task Force at the Mansion House, Dublin on 25 November 2026 (digitalgovernance.eu). It is a one-day, invitation-led summit for senior leaders of organisations regulated under DORA and NIS2 — boards and management bodies, no sales pitches from the stage. We need an experienced B2B telemarketer or small agency to identify and qualify companies interested in sponsoring or partnering with the summit, and pass warm leads to our events manager. A limited number of sponsor and partner slots are available, so this campaign needs to start immediately and move quickly. THE WORK We supply a target list of companies — cybersecurity, GRC, legal, consulting and technology vendors that serve the financial services and regulated sectors. The list contains company names only; no contacts, emails or phone numbers. You build the contact list, identifying and reaching the right person at each company — typically the Head of Marketing, Events Manager, Partnerships or Business Development lead. Your job is to qualify interest, not close. When a company is interested, you email them the sponsor brochure from an ICTTF email address we provide, copying in our events manager, who follows up to arrange a call and take the sales conversation forward. Where a call doesn't connect, follow-up emails using our templates are fine. Success metric: number of qualified, interested companies who have received the brochure with our events manager copied in, plus a clean contact list handed back to us at the end. WHAT WE PROVIDE Target company list, sponsor brochure / partner prospectus, call brief and talking points, one-page summit overview, an ICTTF email address, email templates, and a weekly check-in. WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR - Proven B2B telemarketing / lead-generation experience, ideally selling into or on behalf of the cybersecurity, technology or events sector. - Comfortable reaching marketing and partnership decision-makers and getting past gatekeepers. - Fluent, native-level English with a clear, professional telephone manner. Experience calling into the Irish and UK markets is strongly preferred. - Able to work Irish/UK business hours (GMT/IST). - Familiarity with the cybersecurity or financial services sector is a strong advantage but not essential — we will brief you fully. - Experience with HubSpot (or similar CRM) and clean, structured reporting. - GDPR-aware: contact sourcing and outreach must comply with GDPR and applicable e-privacy rules for B2B contact. Please describe in your proposal how you source contacts and stay compliant. REPORTING Weekly report in a shared spreadsheet or CRM: contacts identified, calls made, outcomes, brochures sent, follow-ups scheduled. All contact data gathered during the project belongs to CRI/ICTTF and is handed over in full on completion. COMMERCIALS We want to price this on output, not time. Please quote a fixed price for a batch of 100 target companies. - A "target" is one named decision-maker (marketing, events, partnerships or business development) at a company on our list. Building the named contact list from our company list is included in the batch price. - A target counts as "worked" once you have made a minimum of three call attempts on different days, plus one follow-up email where a call did not connect, and logged the outcome. - The batch is complete when all 100 targets have been worked and the contact list and outcome log have been handed over. - Please state the timeframe you would need to complete a batch of 100, and the number of qualified leads (brochure sent, events manager copied) you would expect from it. - We are open to a performance bonus per qualified lead on top of the batch price — suggest a structure in your proposal. If the first batch delivers, we will roll the contract on in further batches up to the event on 25 November 2026, so please indicate your capacity. Start: immediately (September 2026). IN YOUR PROPOSAL, PLEASE INCLUDE 1. Relevant experience — particularly outreach to marketing or partnership teams in the technology, cybersecurity or events sector. 2. How you source and verify contact details, and how you manage GDPR compliance. 3. Your price per batch of 100 target companies, the timeframe to complete it, and expected qualified leads. 4. A short voice sample or willingness to do a 10-minute call before we award the project. 5. Availability during Irish/UK business hours and earliest start date. Applications that clearly address the points above will be prioritised.

Book Launch Funnel & Content Repurposing Strategist

PLEASE NOTE: AI-GENERATED APPLICATIONS WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED! We are a publishing agency looking for a creative and strategic marketing professional to support us with book launch funnels, launch strategy, and content repurposing campaigns for nonfiction authors. We are looking for someone who can potentially become a long-term collaborator, as we are currently expanding the marketing side of our publishing services. ## What We Are Looking For We currently have two types of projects: 1. 3-Month Book Launch Campaign We already have an existing publishing offer for which we need support developing and executing a 3-month book launch strategy. 2. 6-Month Book Launch + Repurposing Campaign We are also developing a larger publishing offer that includes a 6-month marketing campaign: 3 months before the book launch and 3 months after the launch. The major difference is that these authors will also be actively guesting on podcasts. The goal is to create an interconnected marketing ecosystem: Book + Podcast Appearances → Repurposed Content → Audience Building → Leads → Pre-orders → Book Launch → Continued Book Sales We are not simply looking for someone to post content on social media. We want someone who understands strategy, funnels, repurposing, and customer journeys. We particularly value someone who can bring their own ideas and strategic thinking to the table rather than following a generic marketing template! ## Screening Task To help us find the right person, we have created a small screening task based on a real book we recently published. For the purpose of this exercise, imagine the book has not yet been published and will launch in three months Book: Escape the 9–5 Manuscript: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1j-KPlPSlcMmGb1C3g3JfdJsvcohk551p/view?usp=sharing Based on the book, please create a book launch funnel. 1. The funnel: Show the complete customer journey for Dina. 2. 90-day launch roadmap: What happens in Month 1, Month 2 and Month 3? What would they actually prioritize? 3. Repurposing example: Choose ONE specific section/idea from Dina's manuscript and show exactly how they'd turn it into, say, 5 pieces of content across different formats. 4. Implementation: What would they personally build/manage versus what resources would they need from your team? 5. Tech + automation: What tools would they use to build the funnel? Where would they use AI/automation, and where would they require human quality control? 6. KPIs: What would they measure to determine whether the funnel is working, and what would they change if it isn't? 7. Real-world constraint: Give them something like: “The author has a small existing audience and a limited advertising budget. What would you prioritize?” Book Content → Awareness → Lead → Pre-order → Launch → Continued Book Sales We intentionally do NOT want to give you a detailed formula for the funnel. Part of this screening is seeing what YOU would create from the book and how you think strategically. This does not need to be beautifully designed or developed into a complete marketing strategy. Please keep it to one or two pages. We mainly want to understand your strategic thinking, creativity, and ability to turn a book into a cohesive launch campaign. ## Previous Experience & Work Samples Please share 2–3 examples of relevant work you have done previously. Previous experience specifically with book launches is not required, but it is a big plus. Please also tell us a little about your experience and why you believe you would be a good fit for this collaboration. ## Pricing Please include your pricing expectations in your application. If possible, please provide an indication of what you would charge for: * A 3-month book launch strategy, funnel building, and content repurposing campaign * A 6-month book launch and repurposing campaign, including repurposing content from the author's podcast appearances ## How to Apply Please email your complete application by Sunday, September 13, 2026 Your application should include: * Your completed screening task * 2–3 relevant work samples * A short introduction about your experience * Any book launch or author marketing experience, if applicable * Your pricing expectations for the 3-month and 6-month campaigns Please make sure you read and understand the entire project description before applying. **Applications that do not include both the completed screening task and relevant work samples will not be considered.** After the deadline, we will review all complete applications and contact selected candidates with the next step.

Zoho CRM Professional Implementation Specialist

ZOHO OUTREACH We are looking for an experienced Zoho CRM specialist to configure a clean, scalable CRM for an international B2B recruitment sourcing business. CRM is already selected,with Zoho CRM Professional as the intended plan. We manage international B2B databases of recruitment agencies, manpower agencies, workforce/candidate suppliers, direct employers and clients. Outreach channels include Phone, WhatsApp, LinkedIn and Email, with Telegram/Facebook occasionally. Initially, the Founder and Main Assistant will use Zoho directly. External callers/freelancers should work through one bilingual English/Russian Google Sheets template without Zoho licences. MVP Configure mainly native Zoho CRM: Accounts/Companies, Contacts, Activities/Tasks, permanent Company IDs, Outreach Pipeline, Qualification, Account Manager, ownership fields, communication history, follow-ups, basic views/dashboard and migration from Excel/Google Sheets. Every Company needs a permanent unique ID such as VP-000001, VP-000002. IDs must be sequential, never changed, independent of Company Name/Country/Role and used as the matching key between Google Sheets and Zoho. Operators must not create IDs manually. GOOGLE SHEETS → ZOHO When an operator records an outreach activity, automation must find the Company by ID, create a separate Activity, preserve previous history, update summary fields, create a Follow-up Task when required and return Synced or Error/Needs Review. Activities must never overwrite previous Activities. Use one bilingual Google Sheets structure, one field mapping and one workflow. Preferred tools: Zoho Flow and/or Make, with minimal custom coding. CRM STRUCTURE Accounts = Companies; Contacts = people within Companies; Activities/Tasks = communication history and follow-ups. One Company may have multiple Contacts. Company Role: Supplier / Client / Both. Company Category: Recruitment Agency / Manpower Agency / Direct Employer / Workforce Supplier / Other. Pipeline: New; Outreach in Progress; Response Received; Qualification in Progress; Qualification Completed; Closed—No Response; Closed—Not Interested; Closed—Not Suitable. Qualification Result: Pending / Qualified / Not Suitable. Account Manager, Current Owner, Relationship Source and Contacted By must remain separate. Account Manager manages the relationship; Current Owner handles current responsibility; Relationship Source records who established the relationship; Contacted By records who performed a specific Activity. LINKEDIN & OWNERSHIP Support Company LinkedIn, Contact LinkedIn, LinkedIn Connection Status, First LinkedIn Outreach Date and Last LinkedIn Interaction Date. Employee reassignment must not change historical Activities, Notes, Relationship Source or Contacted By. ACTIVITIES Every communication attempt must be a separate Activity. Channels: Phone, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Email, Telegram, Facebook, Instagram and Other. Preserve complete history while allowing Last Contact Date, Last Channel and Last Result to show the latest interaction. PILOT Before full migration, test 30–50 real Companies. Test different countries/types, multiple Contacts, Phone/WhatsApp/LinkedIn/Email Activities, multiple Activities per Company, follow-ups, qualification, invalid IDs and duplicate prevention. Full migration starts only after Founder approval. SECURITY The Zoho organisation remains owned by us. Founder remains Super Admin. Specialist receives a separate temporary account. Passwords must never be shared and critical automation must remain under company control. OUT OF SCOPE AI, ATS/Zoho Recruit, candidate workflow, telephony, transcription, call-centre software, WhatsApp Business API, automatic LinkedIn scraping/messaging and heavy custom development are not part of the MVP. DELIVERABLES Configured Zoho CRM; Company/Contact/Activity structure; permanent IDs; Pipeline/Qualification; ownership fields; LinkedIn fields; bilingual Google Sheets template; Sheets→Zoho automation; Sync Status/Error handling; follow-up automation; 30–50 Company pilot; full migration after approval; basic views; field mapping; automation documentation; short SOP video; confirmation of the recommended Zoho plan. PROPOSAL Please answer: 1) How many Zoho CRM implementations have you completed? 2) What experience do you have with Zoho CRM Professional? 3) Have you built Google Sheets→Zoho automation? 4) Zoho Flow, Make or both? 5) How will you preserve Activity history? 6) How will you prevent duplicates? 7) How will you implement permanent Company IDs? 8) How will you separate Current Owner, Relationship Source, Account Manager and Contacted By? 9) Can this MVP be built without heavy custom development? 10) Is Professional sufficient? If not, explain why. 11) Provide 1–3 relevant examples, fixed price and timeline. Please start your proposal with ZOHO OUTREACH.
