Hello,
I have extensive experience in researching, organizing, and maintaining large contact databases for several different clients and believe I am a great candidate for the position.
I've worked with a film distribution company that programmed screenings at colleges and universities across the country, compiling a huge database of relevant contacts for each school/city we visited, to be emailed leading up to our arrival.
Most recently, as a personal assistant to a musician and filmmaker, I was in charge of compiling his fanbase mailing list , which included gleaning relevant contacts from his emails and LinkedIn requests. These would all be organized in a master Excel file, which I would import into an online mailing list website (Constant Contact).
In both of these positions, ensuring that all information was accurate was absolutely paramount (otherwise, the whole point of the database is lost!). To ensure all contacts were up to date, I regularly supplemented basic internet research with emails, phone calls, social media sleuthing, and any other databases I could find.
In your case, I'd research businesses relevant to what you're looking for in terms of outreach, and then figure out via the company website or just regular social media, who the top executive officers were, and then use LinkedIn to find their info to build the spreadsheet.
I am a fast worker, easy to communicate with, and am able to start immediately.
Thanks,
Alex Rennie
