Very interesting idea, but lots of red flags here.
1. This isn't user acquisition. Nothing even close to it. User acquisition would be getting users. This is at best getting leads that aren't even warm. A lead is not a user.
2. Paying by the hour instead of by lead or something else seems bizarre. On the low end, it is $800 for ~88 hours of "lead research" along with nebulous "Strategy consultation" and "ROI analysis". Assuming they aren't lying, they are either losing money or your "Dedicated LeadGenius" is making minimum wage and they are maybe breaking even after taxes and overhead.
I would love to see a service like this that was simply commission based with perhaps a monthly fee. Do the full sales process instead of just lead gen as a test to see if sales will work well for your particular business. Much lower risk than hiring someone full time. Perhaps the churn on this would be too high?
