subject: URGENT: Hostel email campaign — Sydney first (from Rocky)

body:
1. Send a test email to mcloughlinmichael@gmail.com first so Rocky can review it. Use:
   - From: michael@rateright.com.au
   - Subject: Free jobs board poster for Wake Up Sydney Central
   - Body: the hostel cover letter Version 1
   - Attach: the poster PDF Herald just generated at vault/09-Agent-Output/2026-03-13_herald_sydney-hostel-poster-money-led-v2.pdf

2. Once Rocky approves the test, set up a cron job to send one email every 30 minutes to the Sydney hostel list (54 hostels). Each email personalised with the hostel name in the subject line.

3. Rules:
   - One email per 30 minutes, no faster
   - Personalise subject: Free jobs board poster for [Hostel Name]
   - Same body template for all, just swap the hostel name in the greeting
   - Attach the Sydney poster PDF to every email
   - Log every send: timestamp, hostel name, email address, send status
   - Save the log to vault/09-Agent-Output/2026-03-13_susan_hostel-email-log.csv

4. Do NOT start the cron until Rocky approves the test email. Wait for his go signal.

5. IMPORTANT: What SMTP service are you using to send from michael@rateright.com.au? Confirm you can authenticate and send. Report back your SMTP setup details.

body:
This is the ONLY approved email template for the hostel campaign. Do not use your old templates. Use this exact copy, word for word:

Subject: Free jobs board poster for [Hostel Name]

---BEGIN APPROVED TEMPLATE---
Hi there,

I'm Michael — I run RateRight, a free platform that connects backpackers with construction work paying 5-50/hr across Australia.

I've attached a poster for your jobs board. Your guests scan the QR code, sign up in 60 seconds, and get matched with work near them. Completely free — no fees, no agencies.

It's a free amenity that adds real value for your guests — they earn money, stay longer, spend more at your place. Zero work on your end.

If you stick it up, I'll mail you a proper laminated version in a few days so it lasts.

Cheers,
Michael McLoughlin
Founder, RateRight

---END APPROVED TEMPLATE---

ALSO FIX:
- Send FROM michael@rateright.com.au, NOT admin@
- Attach the poster PDF Herald generated
- Resend the test to mcloughlinmichael.r@gmail.com
- Do NOT send to any real hostels until Rocky approves this test

IMPORTANT: DigitalOcean blocks SMTP ports on this VPS. If you cannot send email, report back immediately and CC Local will handle sending via Gmail API.


subject: URGENT: Research hostel emails - Sydney + Brisbane + Adelaide

body:
Split the hostel list and research email addresses for ALL Australian hostels. Most emails are on their websites or Google Maps listings.

YOUR CITIES: Sydney (all ~54 hostels) + Brisbane (~17) + Adelaide (~8)

For each hostel find:
1. Email address (check website contact page, Google Maps, Hostelworld, Facebook)
2. Manager/reception name if visible
3. Phone number

Save results to a simple table format:
| Hostel Name | City | Email | Manager Name | Phone |

Save to: /home/ccuser/rateright-growth/vault/09-Agent-Output/2026-03-13_susan_hostel-emails-sydney-brisbane-adelaide.md

PRIORITY ORDER: Start with the biggest/highest-rated hostels in each city. These are most likely to have clear contact details on their websites.

This is urgent — the campaign sender is being built now and needs these emails to run. Report back when done.
