What every lead includes
- Company name, plus website when the business gave one
- Employee count
- Need: ongoing IT, cybersecurity, compliance or a one-time project
- Timeline
- Contact name and work email
- Phone number, when the business gave one
- Business ZIP code, so you know it falls in your service area
- Exclusive lead
- An exclusive lead is a business's request for IT help that is sent to one provider only, so that provider is not racing other companies who received the same request.
How the leads are generated
Businesses find Clear IT Pricing through plain-English guides on cost, services and compliance, then send a short two-step request. Nobody is cold-called or bought from a list.
The guides cover the questions buyers ask before they talk to a provider. Topics include managed IT pricing, co-managed IT, CMMC and NIST SP 800-171, HIPAA compliance services, managed detection and response and written information security plans for tax and accounting firms. Because the reader has already read how pricing and contracts work, the first conversation tends to start further along.
The site tells the business plainly, on every page and next to the form, that Clear IT Pricing passes the request to one provider and that the provider pays us a referral fee. The business has checked a consent box agreeing to share the request with one provider before you see the lead.
Exclusivity: one provider per request
Each request goes to one provider. We do not sell the same lead to three or five companies and let them race to the phone.
That changes how you can work the lead. You can read the website when one is given, look at the employee count, and write a first email that addresses their actual need. The business is told to expect contact from one company by email within one business day, so a prompt, specific email is what they are waiting for.
Larger projects and some security and compliance work may go to an advisory partner rather than a local MSP. When that happens, the request still goes to one party only.
What we filter out, and the 7-day credit
Every request passes automated checks, and a person reviews anything unusual before it reaches you. We remove:
- Home users and consumer tech support requests
- Job seekers and people asking about employment
- Vendors and agencies pitching their own services
- Fake, disposable or non-working contact details
- Businesses outside your service area
Filtering is not perfect. If a lead that fits one of those categories reaches you, email [email protected] within 7 days of receiving it, with a short note on what was wrong, and we credit it. A business that simply chose another provider or decided not to buy is not a bad lead.
Pay per lead or an exclusive city subscription
There are two ways to buy, and you pick the one that suits your pipeline.
Pay per lead. You receive requests for your city as they come in and pay for each one. This is how every city starts.
Exclusive city subscription. Once a city has a few months of request history, one provider can hold that city on a monthly subscription and receive every qualifying request there. The history matters: it lets both sides see real volume and mix before agreeing to a fixed fee.
Pricing for both is sent by email and depends on the city and the type of request. There are no contracts beyond what you choose to sign up for.
Which needs and company sizes to expect
The site is written for businesses with roughly 5 to 250 employees, plus defense contractors and regulated firms, so that is where most requests come from.
Requests fall into four needs, chosen by the business on the first step of the form:
- Ongoing IT support: fully managed or co-managed IT, help desk and Microsoft 365 administration
- Cybersecurity: endpoint detection and response, MDR, email security, backup and incident response
- Compliance: CMMC and NIST SP 800-171, HIPAA, the FTC Safeguards Rule and written information security plans
- One-time projects: office moves, server replacements, cloud migrations and Windows upgrades
Security work is a growing share of MSP revenue generally. In Kaseya's 2026 State of the MSP report, about 71% of MSPs grew cybersecurity revenue 1. The same survey found the share of MSP customers spending $25,000 or more a year fell from 75% to 41% 1. Smaller budgets are one reason a lead with a clear scope and timeline is worth more than a cold list.

Common questions
Are the leads shared with other providers?
No. Each request goes to one provider only. If you decline a lead or cannot serve it, tell us and we may pass it to one other provider, but it is never sent to a group.
What counts as a bad lead?
Home users, job seekers, vendors pitching services, bad contact details, and businesses outside your service area. Flag those within 7 days by email for a credit. A real business that chooses not to buy is not a bad lead.
Do you endorse or rate the providers in the network?
No. We do not rate, rank or vouch for providers, and we tell businesses to check references and contract terms themselves. Our guide on how to choose an MSP is what we point them to.
How are leads delivered?
By email, with every field the business entered. You contact the business directly by email, and by phone only if they gave a number.
Is there a contract or minimum?
No contracts beyond what you choose. Pay per lead has no minimum term; a city subscription is something you opt into once a city has a few months of history.
Can I talk to someone by phone?
No. Clear IT Pricing runs entirely by email at [email protected], including pricing, onboarding and lead credits.
