Software testing companies · Lead generation
Reach the product head in the days after a release has gone wrong.
Lead generation for a testing company means putting your name in front of product and engineering heads at the moment a failed release makes outside testing a live question. GullySales works on the domain pages, trial offer and outreach lists that turn that moment into an enquiry.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What lead generation means
Lead generation is the combined work of every channel that brings in a new enquiry, whether from search, adverts, referrals or a stall at an exhibition. GullySales runs these channels together and reports the number of enquiries each one produced, not the activity behind it.

For software testing companies
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The enquiry starts with a failure, not a search for testing”
A product head seldom types "QA vendor" in a calm week. The search follows a broken payment screen or a flood of support tickets. Pages written around that event, such as a wrong due date or a double charge, meet the buyer in the state they are in.
“A funding or launch announcement is a lead signal”
A start-up that has just raised money or announced a new app version is about to ship under pressure, with developers testing their own code. A short, specific note about testing one release lands better than a general pitch about quality.
“Agencies and studios send work that no ad will find”
A development house with no testing bench needs an independent check on delivery to its own clients. Those leads come through partner conversations, so a named contact and a clear partner offer matter more than another keyword.
“A lead from a procurement team asks different questions”
Banks and large firms send an enquiry that opens with empanelment, confidentiality and test data handling. If the first reply is a generic brochure, the enquiry moves to the next vendor on the list.
What we do
What we deliver for software testing companies.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Domain landing pages
One page for each area you have tested, such as lending, claims or hospital workflows, naming the rules checked and the defects that recur.
Result: A page for each domain that a searcher in that field can land on.
A single-release trial offer
A written offer to test one release or module, with scope, tracker, the people who join calls and what the report contains.
Result: An offer a product head can accept without signing a long agreement.
A prospect list built on release events
Product firms picked out by a visible launch, funding round or festival sale, each with the likely buyer's role noted.
Result: A list where every name has a stated reason for being there.
A partner offer for agencies
A one-page proposal for studios that want independent testing on their clients' releases, with how work is handed over and reported.
Result: A document you can send to an agency owner after a first call.
An enquiry log by source
A simple record of whether each enquiry came from search, outreach, an agency or a talk, and which domain it concerned.
Result: A record that shows which source brought which kind of buyer.
How the result is measured
- Enquiries generated
- Cost per enquiry
- Enquiries by source
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
What to capture or send
What to record when a product team asks about testing.
- Release or event that triggered it
- A failed release, a sale day or a funding round. It tells you how urgent the need is and which trial to offer.
- Product type and platform
- Web, Android, iOS, API or a mix. It decides which testers and which devices a trial needs, so record it before you promise anything.
- Domain the product serves
- Banking, retail, health or logistics. It lets you send the domain page and a tester who knows the rules of that field.
- Who raised the enquiry
- Product head, engineering head, founder or agency owner. Each asks different questions, so the reply should change.
- Existing QA arrangement
- In-house testers, another vendor or nobody. It shows whether you are filling a gap, replacing a firm or supporting a team.
- Trial release proposed
- The one release the trial would cover, as agreed with the buyer. It keeps the first engagement small enough to judge.
Who it is for
This is written for these software testing companies.
- Manual and functional testing teams
- Test automation and framework specialists
- Performance and load testing providers
- Security and penetration testing firms
- Mobile app and device-lab testing providers
- API and integration testing specialists
- Domain-focused QA for banking, insurance and healthcare software
- Independent QA firms that review another vendor's delivery
Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- Your bench is already committed, so a trial for a new client would take testers from a paying one.
- You have no domain you can speak about with depth, and leads would arrive with questions you cannot answer.
- You expect enquiries with no failed release behind them, which are few.
How it works
How the lead generation work runs
The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.
- 1
Understand your capacity
We ask how many enquiries your team can answer well, who answers after hours, and what a good enquiry looks like. Without this, the system fills a funnel nobody is watching.
- 2
Audit current sources
We read your call log, WhatsApp chats, enquiry sheet and platform dashboards. The baseline is recorded: enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order.
- 3
Strategise the channel mix
Search and maps are chosen for people ready to buy, ads for people who are not yet looking, and content and referrals for trust.
- 4
Implement capture and follow-up
Pages, forms, tags, the lead record and the first-reply message are built and tested end to end. We submit test enquiries ourselves before any media money is spent.
- 5
Measure and optimise
Enquiries are traced to source and judged by what became orders, not by volume alone. Channels that fill the sheet with poor enquiries are cut back. How often you are reported to is agreed in writing.
Where this fits
Three pieces of sales work, in this order.
This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 1, prospecting and lead generation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.
Step 1
Sales audit
Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.
Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.
Step 2 · you are here
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
Step 3
Sales management
A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.
Start here if the team has targets and no routine.
