Developer-led sales mean that developers are your primary customers. The
163+
goal is to have developers see the value in your product, sign up, start
164+
using it and spend some amount of money that is relevant to your business.
165+
This approach typically works best with a usage-based model where
166+
development is cheap or free then costs scale with the consumption of your
167+
product.

169+
For example,
170+
<a href="https://www.twilio.com/docs/sms/api">Twilio's SMS API</a>
171+
is free to get started with during development. Then for testing and
172+
production text messages can be sent and received for .00075 US dollars
173+
each. A developer can sign up with their credit card to test that your
174+
product actually does what you say it can do, then scale up as their
175+
application goes to production.
