We are conducting a small pre-launch consumer product evaluation for a premium skincare serum designed for women experiencing midlife skin changes. This Phase 1 evaluation will recruit and coordinate a small cohort of participants to complete a structured 4-week product testing period. The goal of this phase is to collect structured participant feedback and evaluation data to support product development and pre-launch insights. This is a participant recruitment and coordination role, not influencer marketing or review generation. Scope of Work The consultant will support operational coordination across the following areas. 1. Participant Recruitment Identify potential participants through relevant online communities Share recruitment outreach posts Direct interested candidates to a screening questionnaire Target demographic: Women aged 40–60 experiencing midlife-related skin changes such as: persistent dryness increased sensitivity reduced skin resilience dullness or uneven tone 2. Screening & Candidate Qualification Manage the screening form Review responses to identify qualified candidates Maintain a simple screening tracking log 3. Recruitment Target Because some natural attrition is expected in small studies, the goal is to onboard approximately: 12–14 qualified participants to support a final dataset of: 10 completed 4-week evaluation cycles 4. Candidate Review Checkpoint Before scaling recruitment, the consultant will submit the first two qualified candidates for review and approval. This checkpoint helps ensure alignment on participant profile and sourcing channels. 5. Participant Onboarding Coordination The consultant will: confirm participant availability coordinate onboarding instructions confirm baseline questionnaire completion confirm baseline documentation (initial photo and form completion) 6. Engagement Monitoring During the 4-week evaluation period the consultant will: maintain light participant communication send reminder prompts when needed monitor engagement signals and potential drop-off 7. Documentation Coordination The consultant will help coordinate collection of: baseline questionnaire responses structured participant feedback before-and-after photos provided by participants All materials will be organized and delivered to the client at the end of the evaluation cycle.
