Step 3 — Qualified Lead Definition

Finder’s Fee is paid when all of the following are true:

• Decision-maker involved: Contact is a budget owner or direct influencer (manager+ or equivalent) for the relevant function.
• Budget signal: Prospect confirms an indicative budget at or above your current average deal size, or states funds are available.
• ICP fit: Company matches ideal customer profile (industry/vertical you serve, size/revenue band, geography you support).
• Near-term timing: Intends to evaluate or begin within ≤ 90 days (or is actively seeking proposals).
• Warm introduction: Rep makes a personal intro via email or meeting, and the prospect responds or accepts the meeting.
• Complete contactability: Work email (company domain) and name/title provided; phone and LinkedIn preferred.
• Uniqueness: Not already in CRM as an active opp or contacted within the last 6 months.
• Compliance: Within approved regions/verticals; no conflicts or restricted categories.
• Documentation: Lead is logged in CRM with all required fields (see checklist) before payout.

Disqualifiers (no payout):

• Job seekers, vendors, or agencies pitching us; purchased lists, scrapes, or mass blast replies.
• Generic contact forms without a named person; bounces or non-company email domains.
• Duplicate leads or accounts with meaningful activity in the past 6 months.
• Companies outside ICP (too small, wrong industry/region, restricted categories).
• No response from prospect within 14 days of intro (ghost/no-show) — fee is reversed.

Success Bonus Tie-in

• Success bonus is calculated on collected revenue from any deal tied to this introduction.
• Clawback: If a deal cancels or refunds within 90 days of first payment, the bonus is reversed on the next cycle.
