New business leads in Canada
New businesses in Canada launch into a market where many service providers still rely on referrals and local directories. Reaching a company in the week its website goes live puts you ahead of both. CertLeads detects those websites within hours of going live and lists them with platform, industry, SEO score and graded contacts.
As a covered market, Canada gets full contacts, including named personal emails and phone numbers where available. Leads are matched by country, so you see Canada-wide results; there is no province or city filter, because that detail is not part of a lead.
What new-business leads in Canada look like
Expect a broad mix: trades and home services, consultancies, clinics, restaurants and a steady flow of small online stores. Some sites launch in French or in both official languages. That is useful information in itself: a French-language site is a strong hint to write your first message in French.
Industries and platforms worth filtering for
Bookkeepers can start with Consulting, Construction and Home Services, where new owners often have to sort out GST/HST registration and payroll early on. Leads for bookkeepers explains how to open that conversation.
Marketing agencies tend to get more from E-Commerce and Food & Beverage, filtered to Shopify or Squarespace, where a launch with no ads or email capture is easy to spot. See leads for marketing agencies.
Outreach notes
Canada spans six time zones from Newfoundland to the Pacific, and a Canada-wide export does not tell you which one a business is in. Check the site's address before you schedule anything time-sensitive, such as a call.
Keep a record of where each address was published and when you used it. Under Canada's rules (below), that record is what you rely on if anyone asks why you emailed. Before committing, the free sample shows what a week of Canadian launches looks like in your industry.
A note on email rules
Commercial email in Canada is governed by Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL), which generally requires consent before you send. Consent can be express or implied. One form of implied consent can apply when someone has conspicuously published their address, for example on a business website, without saying they do not want unsolicited messages, and your message is relevant to their business role. Every message must identify you, include your contact details and offer an unsubscribe that you process within 10 business days. Penalties can be significant. This is a general summary, not legal advice.
Each lead goes to at most 3 buyers
Every lead is delivered to a maximum of 3 customers, ever. After each delivery it is held back for 10 days before anyone else can take it, and it is never delivered twice to the same customer.
Every lead shows its delivered counter — “delivered to 1 of 3” — before you export it, so you always know how many other agencies could have it. Read the full explanation on exclusive leads.
