find-consulting-opportunities

Use this skill when the candidate wants revenue opportunities beyond conventional employment.

Goal

Find organizations with a verifiable current signal that maps to one of the candidate's opportunity tracks, then produce a normalized research lead. Do not infer a need from industry stereotypes alone.

Good source signals

• a company explicitly announcing an AI, automation, CRM, digital-transformation, or growth initiative;
• a company posting several related implementation roles that indicate an active program;
• a public request for an advisor, fractional executive, trainer, workshop leader, product builder, or automation implementer;
• a project marketplace listing;
• a company publicly describing a manual workflow, integration gap, lead-response problem, or growth-system problem;
• a warm/referral signal provided by the user.

Required evidence

Every opportunity must include:

• company or organization;
• source and source URL when available;
• dated/current evidence whenever possible;
• the exact signal that makes the opportunity relevant;
• the best matching candidate opportunity lane;
• likely role categories that own the problem.

Never invent a person's name, title, email, phone number, budget, or business pain.

Workflow

1. Read candidate/MASTER_PROFILE.md, candidate/OPPORTUNITY_TRACKS.json, and candidate/SEARCH_PREFERENCES.md.
2. Search public sources for current evidence.
3. Save raw research records using templates/CONSULTING_OPPORTUNITY_TEMPLATE.json as the contract.
4. Normalize them with scripts/opportunity_model.py or equivalent tool invocation.
5. Generate a brief with scripts/opportunity_brief.py.
6. Present opportunities for human review before any contact or application.

Person targeting

Use the normalized target_person_roles as a research order, not as proof that a specific person is correct.

Examples:

• AI transformation -> Chief AI Officer, CIO, CTO, COO, transformation leader.
• AI product build -> CTO, VP Engineering, Head of Product, founder.
• Growth / CRM / automation -> CMO, CRO, VP Growth, RevOps leader, founder.
• Fractional advisory -> founder/CEO, president, COO, operating partner.
• Coworking / PropTech -> owner, CEO, COO, CMO, VP Sales.

Outreach boundary

The skill may prepare a factual draft after the user selects a lead. It must not mass-send messages or fabricate personalization.
