OPPORTUNITY RESEARCH · Workflow idea

Find promising events and speakers, then decide what deserves a closer look.

Start with the topic, place, and kind of opportunity you care about. Bring event and speaker findings into an organized shortlist, then review each opportunity before deciding whether to reach out.

01 / The starting point

A clear request.
A useful direction.

A brief for an event or speaker search

“Describe the industry, location, and event focus, or the speaker topic, context, and location. Add an email address only if you want completed findings sent to you.”
An example request · Make it specific to your team.

02 / The work

6 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Keeps a search request and its findings together, prioritizes results using timing signals, and prepares an outreach draft when requested.

  1. Set the search focus

    Choose whether to look for events or speakers and provide the topic, location, and other relevant context.

  2. Collect opportunity findings

    Bring back a set of event or speaker opportunities that match the supplied search brief.

  3. Sort by useful timing signals

    Bring nearer event deadlines forward and make more recent speaker opportunities easier to review.

  4. Keep findings with the request

    Save the results and current search status so the requester can review the completed research.

  5. Prepare an outreach draft

    Use selected opportunity details to shape a proposed email subject and message without sending it.

  6. Review before contacting

    Check the original opportunity, relevance, availability, and draft wording before deciding whether to reach out.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

A saved set of search results, with events sorted by deadline and speaker opportunities by recency. A separate request can prepare an outreach email draft from opportunity details for a person to review.

The handoff

A saved set of search results, with events sorted by deadline and speaker opportunities by recency. A separate request can prepare an outreach email draft from opportunity details for a person to review.

Keep in mind

A deadline or recent appearance can help prioritize research, but it does not establish availability, fit, or interest. Check the original opportunity before contacting anyone; the outreach remains a draft.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define the event and speaker briefs

Decide which topics, locations, event types, and speaker contexts make a useful search request.

Choose how findings are returned

Decide where requesters review saved results and whether they may receive a results email.

Set expectations for prioritization

Explain that deadlines and recency help order research but do not confirm fit, availability, or willingness to participate.

Keep outreach under review

Choose who checks opportunity details and approves any message before it is sent.
