Chapter 7

120 targets

Companies that publish content at volume and have a live, checkable reason to want more of it. Six segments, 63 in the UK and 57 in the US, researched on 4 September 2026. Every row carries a URL that was seen or fetched, not constructed, and most of those URLs are a job advertisement, which is the only trigger in this market with a real clock on it.

What is verified, and what is not

The trigger is the evidence. 102 of 120 rows cite a live trigger, usually an open content or writer vacancy. Where no live advertisement could be found for a company worth keeping, the trigger is described in words and the URL points at the careers page, insights hub or news page actually seen. Those rows are priority 3.
Job ads expire. Re-check any priority-1 trigger the week you use it. An email that opens with a vacancy that closed in June is worse than no email.
No individuals. Roles are job titles only. No names, no email addresses, no phone numbers anywhere in this list or its CSV. Find the current holder of the title on LinkedIn the week you write.
Headcount is a band, not a filed figure. These are staff-size bands from company sources and public profiles, kept deliberately coarse. Do not quote one back to a buyer.
Priority 1 (57): hiring for content right now or an unambiguous live trigger. Approach this week. Priority 2 (45): good fit, softer or older trigger. Priority 3 (18): right shape, no live trigger found, nurture quarterly.
Work the agencies first. They are the only segment that buys repeatedly, resells at their own margin and needs no education about what a brief is, and Austen already supports the agency workspace shape they need.^S38

The six segments, and why each is here

Segment	Rows	UK	US	P1	P2	P3	Why they are on the list
Agencies	25	13	12	14	9	2	They resell content at their own margin and run on freelance benches. 14 of 25 are advertising for writers right now, which is a public admission that delivery capacity is short. Start here
Education	15	10	5	8	7	0	Course pages and subject guides are the whole organic recruitment funnel and are chronically out of date. This is also the one segment where Proofed already has standing (Chapter 6)
B2B SaaS	30	15	15	18	7	5	20 to 300 staff, publishes a blog, hiring for content. The pilot costs less than a month of the salary they are advertising and delivers while they are still interviewing
Professional services	20	11	9	5	8	7	Law, accounting and consulting firms whose fee-earners cannot find drafting time and whose marcomms team cannot edit fast enough. Slow, but the budgets are real
Publishers and media	15	8	7	7	7	1	Commercial and branded-content desks, not editorial. Volume-committed to sponsors and understaffed. Approach the studio, never the newsroom
E-commerce	15	6	9	5	7	3	Brands whose claims must be edited before publication: supplements, skincare, nutrition. The human edit is the entire purchase, not a nice-to-have
Total	120	63	57	57	45	18

How to work this list

Start with the 25 agencies

One agency win multiplies across their client list, and they need no education about what a brief is. Offer a white-label reseller trial on one client account, at $2,500, billed at their normal content rate.

Then the 15 education accounts, led by Proofed

Lead with the academic editing bench, not with Austen. This is the one cold segment where the seller already has standing in the sector.

Then priority-1 B2B SaaS and professional services

Where a live content hire is posted. Reply to the advertisement itself with a free three-gap audit of their blog and the costed comparison against one month of the salary.

Two contacts per account, never one

The head of marketing and the person the role reports to. One of them will answer, and it is rarely the one you expected.

Re-check the trigger, then delete it if it is dead

An expired job ad is a dead row until a new trigger appears. Move it to nurture rather than sending a stale opener.

Legal, before the first send. Email companies, not sole traders. Put your company name, registered office and an opt-out line in every email, honour every opt-out the same day, and keep a privacy notice you can link to. The full rules, including the US and UK differences, are in Chapter 10.

The CSV

targets-120.csv, 120 rows, 11 columns, quoted throughout:

rank, tier, company, sector, region, headcount, trigger, buyer_titles, why_fit, way_in, source

tier is the priority, 1 to 3. sector is one of the six segments. region is UK or US. headcount is a staff band. trigger is the live reason to write this week, and source is the URL where it was seen. The column order matches the target-list schema used in the sibling TeamTalk guide, so the same import and review process works on both.

What this list does not claim

No contact details. No individual is named and no email address or phone number appears anywhere in the list or the CSV.
No revenue, funding or headcount figure is stated as filed. Size bands are approximate and come from company sources and public profiles.
No claim that any of them is a customer, has been contacted, or has expressed interest. None has.
No claim that a trigger is still live. Every trigger was seen on or before 4 September 2026. Job advertisements expire, and several of these will have expired by the time you read the row.
Excluded on purpose: Proofed's existing Finance, Insurance, Market Intelligence and Grant Proposal accounts, which buy editing rather than writing (Chapter 6), and any company whose only content need is regulated financial promotion.
