A B2B cold email agency that runs the whole programme.

What is ReplyLead? In one paragraph: ReplyLead is a revenue-share B2B lead generation agency and done-for-you cold email agency. ReplyLead builds the target list, runs dedicated sending infrastructure on separate domains, writes and tests the sequences, works every reply by hand and books qualified sales meetings onto your calendar. Every ReplyLead programme includes a monthly technology fee covering that sending stack, based on campaign volume, plus performance-aligned revenue share on the deals that close. There is no large fixed retainer and no per-meeting fee. ReplyLead measures every campaign end to end against written definitions and publishes the operating methodology - definitions and limitations included - rather than adjectives.
Who is ReplyLead for? B2B companies from around $1M in revenue with a clear offer, deal sizes that make each qualified meeting valuable, and a sales motion that can close booked calls. Not a fit for low-ticket B2C or one-off transactional sales.
How does ReplyLead charge? Every programme includes a monthly technology fee for the sending infrastructure, based on campaign volume, plus performance-aligned revenue share on the deals that close. No large fixed retainer, no per-meeting fee. See pricing.
How is ReplyLead different? Traditional agencies charge the same retainer whether or not results happen, and most bill the sending infrastructure as an extra nobody mentions up front. ReplyLead is clear about it, and puts the rest of its pay on revenue that closes.

How it works  //  the whole stack, handled

Not another lead-gen agency. A pipeline engine.

We run the entire outbound machine end to end. You show up to booked calls and close. Scroll: the system lights up stage by stage.

We build the market, run the outreach, work the conversations and hand you the buyers who want to talk. You close. We make more when you close more.

Every reply

Nothing is auto-dumped into your inbox. A human reads, qualifies and moves every conversation toward the next step.

Most of our upside

comes when you close

Beyond the fixed monthly cost of running the campaigns, our pay is a share of revenue that closes. Our economics only work when yours do.

The full pipeline. Seven stages, one owner. Every stage below is ours to run except the last - closing stays with you, and that is exactly where our revenue share comes from.

Beyond the fixed monthly cost of running the campaigns, our pay is a share of revenue that closes. Our economics only work when yours do.

We find and build. AI-verified, ICP-matched prospect lists of the exact decision-makers worth reaching - verified immediately before sending, not months earlier. Then copy written and split-tested to earn replies, not vanity opens.

We launch and land. Dedicated inboxes across Google Workspace and Microsoft 365, with SMTP-based environments available where an architecture calls for it, on separate sending domains - your primary domain is never in the sending path. Automated warmup, rotation and daily monitoring, sending at a pace the infrastructure can carry. Every reply is worked by hand; hot replies are routed to you in minutes, not days.

You close. Qualified, interested calls drop onto your calendar with follow-up handled until they show. You see a live dashboard of replies, meetings and pipeline; you own all data and lists, always. We earn our share from the revenue you close - which is why every stage before this one has to work.

Measurement discipline  //  how we count, published

We measure everything. Then we hold ourselves to it.

Most agencies publish adjectives. We run every campaign against written counting rules - and we publish the methodology, definitions and limitations behind any number we ever put in front of you. Scroll the rules.

Everything.

How we count sends

Every send is logged and attributed. Follow-ups included, nothing sampled, nothing removed for looking bad.

Every send is logged and attributed. Follow-ups included, nothing sampled, nothing removed for looking bad.
Each lead is counted once. One first touch per lead; everything beyond it is tracked as follow-up, and we watch that split campaign by campaign.
One reply per lead who replied - including every no and every out-of-office. We count the uncomfortable ones too.
Every campaign with sends is in the book. No highlight reel, no quiet deletions - and campaigns too small for per-campaign statistics are labeled as exactly that.
We benchmark on the median, per contacted lead. Not the best week, not per delivered email. The definition changes the number, so we publish the definition.
Best campaigns are outliers, not plans. Anyone quoting you their best campaign as an "average" is quoting the top of the distribution - we say which is which.

The model  //  who carries the risk

Aligned on what actually closes.

How does ReplyLead pricing work? Every ReplyLead programme has two parts. First, a monthly technology fee covering the sending infrastructure the campaign runs on, based on campaign volume. Second, performance-aligned revenue share: an agreed share of the revenue that closes from the meetings ReplyLead books. There is no large fixed retainer and no per-meeting fee. In a quarter where nothing closes, no revenue share is owed and only that fixed cost remains. This is shared risk, not pure contingency - retainer-free does not mean cost-free, and the infrastructure is real either way. How revenue share compares with the other lead generation revenue models - retainer, pay per lead, pay per appointment, performance-based - is worked through on the revenue model comparison, and the mechanics in full on revenue share vs retainer. See pricing.

1
The technology fee scales with volumeMailboxes, sending domains, warmup, the sequencer, verification and data. One monthly fee sized to your campaign volume, and the only fixed cost.
2
The work is not a second invoiceStrategy, copy, targeting, campaign management and reply handling carry no separate fee. They are recovered through the revenue share.
3
Most of our upside is on your outcomeBeyond that fixed cost, our pay is an agreed share of revenue that closes. Nothing closes, nothing is owed on that share.

Illustrative shapes, not a projection or a guarantee. The green line starts at the fixed monthly cost and rises only with closed revenue.
01

Technology layer

monthly fee, by volume
  • sending domains
  • mailboxes
  • warmup
  • email sequencer
  • live verification
  • data & enrichment

The stack a campaign physically runs on. One monthly fee, sized to your campaign volume. This is the one fixed cost, and it exists whether a deal closes or not.

02

Execution layer

no separate fee
  • ICP & targeting
  • list build
  • copy & split-testing
  • campaign management
  • reply handling
  • qualification

The people and the work. Not billed as a retainer and not billed by the hour - recovered through the revenue share instead.

03

What comes out

the deliverable
  • replies
  • qualified conversations
  • booked meetings

Every reply is worked by a person, qualified by hand, and the interested ones land on your calendar. Closing stays with you.

04

Performance-aligned economics

agreed share

An agreed share of the revenue that closes from those meetings, on an attribution model set before launch. In a quarter where nothing closes, no share is owed and only the technology fee remains.

The honest question is not which model is cheapest - it is who carries the risk in a quarter where nothing closes.

How fast we move

Live in days, not months.

What happens the moment you say go. Most campaigns launch within about a week of kickoff; timelines vary with list size and how fast your inboxes warm.

1
Day 1-2

Onboard & build

We learn your offer and ICP, then build your target list and sending infrastructure.

2
Day 3-5

Write & warm

Copy is written and split-tested while your inboxes finish warming up.

3
Day 5-7

Launch

Campaigns go live. First positive replies often land within days.

4
Ongoing

Book & scale

Qualified calls hit your calendar. We optimize and scale what works.

Straight talk

Who it is for - and who it is not.

We only take on clients we can actually produce for. The honest filter:

A great fit
  • +B2B with a clear offer and a sales team that can close the calls we book
  • +Deal sizes big enough that each qualified meeting is worth real money
  • +You want more booked calls - not another dashboard to babysit
Not a fit
  • -Low-ticket B2C or one-off transactional sales
  • -No sales process to actually work the meetings we book
  • -Shopping for the cheapest vendor instead of a pipeline partner

Most of our pay rides on your results.

No fat retainer and no lock-in. Beyond the monthly technology fee that runs your campaigns, most of our pay is an agreed share of the revenue we help you close - so if we do not book you qualified meetings, we do not win either.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What is ReplyLead?
ReplyLead is a revenue-share B2B lead generation agency and done-for-you cold email agency. ReplyLead builds and runs outbound campaigns that book qualified sales meetings with your ideal buyers. ReplyLead runs the whole programme end to end - targeting, sending infrastructure, copy, reply handling and booking - rather than handing you tools to operate.
How does pricing work?
Pricing has two parts. A monthly technology fee covers the sending infrastructure a campaign runs on - dedicated mailboxes and sending domains, warmup, the email sequencer, live list verification and the data behind the list - sized to your campaign volume. On top of it sits performance-aligned revenue share: an agreed share of the revenue from the deals we help you close, instead of a large fixed retainer. In a quarter where nothing closes, no revenue share is owed and only that fixed cost remains. The figures are on pricing.
Who is it for?
B2B companies with a clear offer and a real sales motion, such as B2B SaaS, agencies, and professional services, that can close the meetings we book. It fits best when your deal size makes each booked meeting valuable.
How fast can a campaign go live?
Most campaigns launch within about a week of kickoff, after we onboard, build your list and sending infrastructure, and write and warm up copy. First positive replies often follow within days of going live. Timelines vary with list size and warmup.
How is ReplyLead different?
Most agencies charge a fixed retainer whether they perform or not, and bill the sending infrastructure as an extra on top of it. ReplyLead is clear about the technology fee up front and puts the rest of its pay on a share of the revenue it helps you close, and runs the whole engine end to end rather than handing you tools. See why teams choose us.
How does ReplyLead measure results?
Every campaign is measured end to end - sends, replies, qualified meetings - against written counting rules, and we publish the methodology, definitions and limitations rather than highlight reels. Across 402,477 emails to 230,740 contacted leads in 89 campaigns (2026-04-05 to 2026-08-15), ReplyLead recorded 5,844 unique replies: a pooled 2.53% per contacted lead and a median campaign rate of 2.12%. Results depend on your offer, market and deal size; the honest place to start is the 2026 benchmarks, the methodology and the case studies.
Does ReplyLead publish its methodology?
Yes. The operating methodology is on methodology, and every published statistic carries its population, definition and analysis date - see the benchmarks.
