Your next room block comes from a clinical trial

A seven-step play for an extended-stay hotel. It starts from ClinicalTrials.gov, stacks Google Maps and Firecrawl on top, and ends in a message to the research site that is useful before anyone replies.

Why it earns attention

Clinical trials bring participants to the same site for days at a time, and many travel from far away. Research coordinators need somewhere to send them, and that demand never appears on an events calendar.

The play in seven steps

01
Find trials recruiting nearby
ClinicalTrials.gov
What you pull
Studies recruiting at sites in your area: condition, site address, contact and the visit schedule from the protocol section.
Why it matters
Trials with consecutive or overnight visit days bring people from far away. That is a room night.
Example
Oncology trial · university hospital site · 3 consecutive visit days every cycle · recruiting nationally
02
Measure the trip
Google Maps
What you pull
Driving time from the hotel to each site, and transit options.
Why it matters
Participants are often unwell. Being close and easy to reach is the main thing a coordinator looks for.
Example
12 minutes by car · on the hospital shuttle route
03
List what participants need
Firecrawl
What you pull
The hotel's rooms with kitchens, accessible rooms, shuttle and extended-stay rates.
Why it matters
Patients on long stays need kitchens and accessibility. These details make the sheet useful.
Example
Kitchen suites · 8 accessible rooms · free shuttle · weekly rate
04
Build the lodging sheet
Your artifact
What you build
A one-page sheet the coordinator can share: distance, rooms, rates, a direct booking line and flexible extensions.
Why it works
Coordinators answer this question every week. A sheet they can forward saves them time.
Example
One page · study rate · flexible extensions · direct contact
05
Check before you send
Only pitch studies whose schedules include consecutive or overnight visits, and never ask for anything about participants. The sheet is for the site to share.
06
Find the research site in Glider
Glider
Search for
Clinical research coordinatorResearch site managerPatient navigatorClinical trials office director
Why them
The coordinator arranges participant travel. The trials office can make you the default for every study.
What you get
A work email and a direct phone, with the email verified before it goes into a sequence.
07
Send the evidence, then run the first test
To: the research siteEvery line comes from a step above
Your oncology study schedule includes three consecutive visit days per cycle, and it's recruiting nationally.¹ We're twelve minutes from the hospital and on its shuttle route,² with kitchen suites, accessible rooms and a weekly rate.³ Here's a lodging sheet you can share with participants who need a place to stay.⁴ Should I set up a study rate?
- Facts from the data (the number is the step)
- What you built for them
- One small ask
Why it works
It solves a recurring problem for the coordinator, and the sheet is useful the moment they read it.
First test
Five recruiting studies within twenty minutes.
Success looks like
Two study rates set up out of five recruiting trials.
