People still hire developers on the word of someone who's worked with them
Business owners ask for a contractor for a CRM, a website or automation. We find those posts and draft a reply from your team: advice on the task, not a price list.

The tasks vary: from a CRM built from scratch to a site that needs rescuing
“Recommend developers who build a CRM from scratch - people you've worked with yourself”
“Need a small catalogue website with decent design. Who can take it on and what's the price?”
“Looking for someone to refresh our website and then maintain it”
“Need an automated tracking system in Google Sheets. Contacts appreciated”
“Our host says the servers with our site may be gone. Who can help us recover it?”

A B2B request shows the size of the job, if you read closely
Keywords for a business match thousands of posts. What gives a client away is the wording that shows they're already choosing.
- “people you've worked with yourself”
- they trust others' experience more than a portfolio
- “Who can take it on and what's the price?”
- the task is defined and they're ready to talk budget
- “and then maintain it”
- they're looking for the long term, not a one-off
- “Who can help us recover it?”
- it's urgent: a fast, precise answer beats a pitch
The first reply helps with the task instead of selling development
Here's what a draft for the request above looks like. First something useful for this exact situation, then one question to start a conversation. Links and prices come later, once the person replies.
Before building a CRM from scratch, write down the 3-5 processes it has to cover: an existing system with some customisation often handles half of them. That's where we start every project like this. How many people on your team will use it?
B2B requests are rarer and vaguer
- There are fewer requests than in consumer businesses, and they're often vague: “need a website” with no scope or deadline. The first reply should help shape the task, not sell.
- Some requests are small one-off jobs. If you need projects of a certain size, say so in your brief and those requests get a lower score.
- We don't show a case with numbers in this line of business yet: the client's replies haven't been tracked.
What IT teams ask us
What if I need companies, not people with a question?
There's a separate mode for that - company search (B2B): a list of companies that fit your profile, contacts from their own websites and a draft first email.
Which posts count as leads?
Ones where someone is looking for a contractor: development, a website, maintenance, automation. We filter out other contractors offering their services.
Do urgent requests come up?
They do: recovering a site after hosting trouble, for example. Speed matters there, so it's worth checking new cards daily.
