How Long Until Your First MSP Client (The Real Answer)

Ever have a great MSP lead come in at the worst possible time? That just happened to me. I lost a $2,000 per month deal with an ideal client, a financial advisory firm that was a textbook fit for my MSP. The catch? They reached out 8 days before their current contract ended, and they're due for an SEC exam soon. In this video I pull back the curtain on the whole deal: how the lead came in (one through ChatGPT, by the way), why I almost said yes, and the real reason walking away was the smart play. I also share why this "lost" deal is actually sitting in my pipeline for spring 2027, plus the two big mistakes their current MSP made that opened the door for me in the first place. If you're a new or established MSP owner trying to figure out which deals to chase and which to let breathe, this one's for you.

I Lost a $2K Month MSP Deal This Week (Here's Why)

Harrison Baron sits down with Christina Klein, head of the MSP practice at Lansweeper, for a no fluff conversation on how MSPs actually grow. We cover why "we serve everyone" is killing your business, how to pick the right niche using your addressable market, what makes a peer group worth your time (and what makes it a social club), how to leverage vendor relationships beyond just buying another tool, and the two biggest bottlenecks keeping MSPs stuck at $1M. Christina also shares how MSPs can turn Lansweeper data into new services and revenue streams instead of treating it like a one and done inventory tool. Plus, Harrison breaks down why "done beats perfect" and why the MSP market is starving for owners who actually give a damn. Whether you're a brand new MSP or pushing past $5M, this conversation has something for you.

The Best Clients for MSPs (And Why They Stay Forever)

The Datto founder is back with a new BCDR appliance, and it might be the coolest thing in MSP backup right now. Austin McCord, who built Datto from his parents' basement in 2007 and sold it for $1.5 billion before Kaseya picked it up in 2022, teamed up with longtime Datto exec Michael Fass to launch Slide. They call it unfinished business.In this video, I unbox the Slide hardware, walk through the Z1, Z2, F1, R1, and B1 models (the B1 holds up to 150 terabytes), and explain why a physical backup box still matters in a cloud obsessed world. I also break down the pay as you go pricing and which clients actually need this kind of power. Just to be clear, this is not sponsored. I asked Slide for the hardware because the story is awesome, and we are using it at our own MSP. Want to grow your MSP? Head to growth-generators.com to check out MSP Heroes and grab the book.

Unboxing the BCDR Appliance Shaking Up the MSP World

Most MSPs never get a single lead from their website, and I was almost one of them. In this video, I break down exactly how I'm fixing my MSP's lead generation problem and how you can copy the same playbook for your own business. My MSP, Secure Wealth IT, pulled 2 real leads in 30 days off only 257 visitors, which isn't bad, but I know we can do way more. The real issue came down to something simple: our website gave people almost no way to raise their hand and say "I'm interested." So I went back to the drawing board, figured out who our dream customer is, mapped out their biggest pain points, and built 9 lead magnets designed to solve those exact problems. In this walkthrough, I pull back the curtain on my real website, real analytics, and the exact rollout I'm working on right now. You'll see how to build lead magnets your dream clients actually want, how to design a landing page that turns traffic into leads, how to use AI and Canva to create great resources without a big budget, why having only one resource on your site isn't enough, how A/B testing helps you find what really converts, and how to nurture those new leads with email automation for months or even years down the road. If you run an MSP and you're tired of relying on handshakes, BNI meetings, and business cards for growth, this video is for you.

How I'm Getting MSP Leads From Scratch (Full Strategy Reveal)

Most MSPs are on LinkedIn every single day. They post. They connect. They send messages. And they get nothing back. No replies, no meetings, no clients. If that sounds like you, this video fixes it.

You will learn why trying to target everyone is killing your results, how to turn your profile from a boring resume into a real sales page, the simple 4 step DM process that actually gets replies, what kind of content to post so the right people pay attention, and why most MSPs quit way too early right before things start working.

We go way deeper inside MSP Heroes with live trainings on everything I will never post publicly.

The Linked In Trick That Prints MSP Clients

What does MSP growth look like across three continents? In this episode Harrison sits down with Margarita Sertaridi, Partner Account Executive at Lansweeper covering Eastern Europe and South EMEA. Margarita helps MSPs win larger deals, b﻿uild stronger partnerships, and find new revenue streams across some of the most competitive markets in the world. She brings a ground level view of how MSPs operate globally and what separates the ones that scale from the ones that stall. In this conversation they dig into why the best MSPs keep a tight tech stack instead of chasing every new tool, how buying behavior shifts from region to region, and why total network visibility is the foundation your managed services business needs before anything else. You will also hear the real difference between growth and scalability, two things most MSP owners treat the same but that actually require completely different moves. They also get into the rise of IoT, shadow AI, and what NIS2 and DORA mean for MSPs who want to get ahead of the next wave of compliance demand. Margarita shares real numbers from her partners and breaks down the simple strategy that has MSPs growing 30% year over year. If you are an MSP owner who wants to understand your clients better, tighten your service stack, and find your next growth lever this one is worth your full attention.

She Manages MSPs Across Two Continents (Here's What She Sees)

Most MSP websites do not generate leads. Not because the design is bad, but because the content is written for the wrong person. In this video, I break down exactly how we wrote the content for Secure Wealth IT, how we got leads fast including an 80 seat deal for a brand new MSP in our membership, and how we are already ranking on Google as a newer MSP. I cover how to build your buyer persona, how to find your target customer pain points, what pages every MSP website needs, and how to use AI the right way to write content that actually converts. Whether you are a niche MSP or a local generalist, this process works and it is the same process we use ourselves. My name is Harrison Baron from Growth Generators. We help MSP owners generate leads so there is never a question about where the next deal is coming from.

Why Your MSP Website Gets Zero Leads ( How We Wrote Ours)

If you are guessing what to charge for your managed services, you are either leaving money on the table or losing deals. In this video, I break down exactly how to price your MSP services the right way using real numbers instead of copying what your competitors charge. I start with the foundation, which is knowing your actual costs. Your RMM, antivirus, email security, backup, Microsoft 365 licensing, and every other tool in your stack all add up to a floor number. If you charge at or below that number, you lose money. Then I walk through overhead costs like rent, insurance, admin, and onboarding time that also need to be factored in before you even think about profit. From there, I cover margins and why you should be aiming for around 50 percent gross margin on managed services. I also break down the different pricing models including per user, per device, and flat fee, and explain why per user pricing is the best fit for most MSPs under two million dollars in revenue. I show you how to build out good, better, and best pricing tiers so your clients can pick the package that fits them while your middle tier does the heavy lifting for your business. I also walk through how and when to raise your prices, why you should never discount to win deals, and the common mistakes I see MSPs make after thousands of conversations. If you want to plug in your own numbers and see exactly what you should charge, I built a free MSP pricing calculator you can grab from the link below.

It Took 6 Weeks to Get Google My Business Approved ( I HATE IT )

Shadow IT has been a problem for years, but Shadow AI is the new threat that most MSPs are not even looking for yet. In this conversation, I sit down with Francis Rombaut from Lansweeper to talk about what the best MSPs are actually doing differently, how to move clients away from break fix, and why AI governance is quickly becoming one of the biggest MSP sales opportunities out there. Francis works directly with MSPs on product marketing and pricing at Lansweeper and has a front row seat to what separates MSPs that are winning from those that are stuck. We talk about the maturity scale he sees across the MSP space and what it actually looks like when an MSP is operating at the highest level. The answer might surprise you because it has less to do with the tools and more to do with how they think about their clients' full technology environment. We also get into how MSPs are using AI internally and for their clients, where the real risks are, what hallucination means for your managed services work, and why an AI agent with too much access is genuinely terrifying. Francis shares how Lansweeper is building toward MCP server integration and what that means for MSPs who want to stay ahead. If you are thinking about how to position your MSP for the next few years, this conversation is worth your full attention.

Shadow AI Is Leaving Your Clients Wide Open (Here's What MSPs Miss)

Most people start an MSP by picking a name and figuring out the rest later. That's backwards.In this video, I'm pulling back the curtain on how I started Secure Wealth IT, a real MSP I launched in Charlotte, NC targeting financial advisors, RIAs, and broker dealers. This is episode one of a weekly series where I share exactly what I'm doing, what's working, and what I've seen other MSPs get wrong. Before I did anything else, I validated the market. I used ChatGPT to find my niche, figure out who had the most potential clients in my area, and narrow it down to a group I could actually win with. I'll show you the exact process I used so you can do the same thing no matter where you live or what industry you go after. From there I had to find the right business partner. I knew my strengths were sales and marketing, so I needed someone who could own the technical and operational side. I'll walk you through how I found that person, what I looked for, and why it made all the difference.Then came the name. Secure Wealth IT did not come from some brilliant creative moment. I'll tell you exactly how we landed on it and why it works for the market we serve.This is not theory. This is what we actually did, step by step, from scratch.If you are starting an MSP or thinking about it, start here. New episode every week.
