Pay-per-lead for Software development firms in Canada and the US
Pay-per-lead for Software development firms
Reach organizations planning software work that fits your team. We qualify the project stage, scope and technical buyer before arranging a discovery conversation.
Pay-per-lead for software development firms means you pay per accepted lead: an inquiry that passes the qualification and exclusion rules we agree with you in writing before launch. Pricing runs USD $15 to $500 per accepted lead, quoted for your market, with no setup fee. A lead that fails the agreed rules gets a replacement, not a refund.
Eligible issues are replaced under written criteria

1
You tell us who you want
Service area, customer type, the work you want and any exclusions. We agree the criteria in writing so every accepted lead can be checked against the same standard.

You get it with proof
Delivered through the agreed handoff with the source and available qualification evidence attached.
Development opportunities with a product problem and an owner.
A funded rebuild, an integration backlog and a new product discovery need different engagements. Position your firm around the development work it does best, then qualify the buyer’s goal, sponsor and next decision.
Prepare the next conversation.
Bring the relevant sponsor to a requirements conversation. The development firm determines technical feasibility and scope. A founder’s idea without an agreed buying process should not be equated with an approved project.
Campaign management and follow-up.
Vivin selects and manages the acquisition channels for your market. We agree the audience, qualification and delivery scope with you, then review the inquiries and conversations your team receives.

Questions founders and sales leads at custom software and dev shops ask
Questions we get asked.
Can we focus on integrations instead of new builds?
Yes. Integration buyers have a different problem and often different stakeholders. Give that service a distinct qualification path.
Can you filter out people seeking free development?
The campaign can state the commercial service clearly and explore project sponsorship and buying intent before an opportunity advances.
Does qualification include technical discovery?
Only basic context. Your engineers and delivery team assess feasibility, architecture, effort and the project estimate.
What should a booked meeting accomplish?
Confirm the problem, business sponsor, expected timing and appropriate next step, such as discovery, an assessment or a proposal.
Can pay-per-close fit project work?
Potentially, with proven delivery, adequate margins and a clear definition of the attributed contract. Change orders and later work need separate agreement.
Will high-volume outreach suit every development firm?
No. The reachable market, differentiation and account sensitivity determine the approach. A small strategic market benefits from more specific relationship building.
