### Component 2: Email Correspondence
[To be populated from any email responses we get from hostels]

### Component 3: Our Outreach Documentation
- Hostel manager outreach emails sent (Mar 13)
- Call script used
- This evidence package itself

### Component 4: Letter of Support (Alternative to LOI)
Template for hostel managers who won't sign full LOI:

> *"I [NAME] at [HOSTEL] confirm we have been contacted by RateRight regarding a partnership to connect our guests with construction job opportunities. We are interested in learning more about this service and intend to explore a formal partnership once RateRight launches."*

This is less formal than LOI — just a statement of interest on email.

### Component 5: Platform Evidence
- RateRight website (rateright.com.au)
- Platform description showing how it works
- Photos/screenshots of the product

## Key Question for Harper
Does "Letters of Intent from partner organisations" accept:
- (A) Only formal signed LOI on letterhead, OR
- (B) Evidence of partnership intent (emails, call notes, manager statements)

Answer determines whether we need Michael's personal contacts or can proceed with cold outreach evidence.
