How MSPs can close more cybersecurity leads
#salesclose
Most MSPs want to become more cybersecurity-focused. But they aren’t quite sure where to start. If you’re feeling that way, it’s not your fault. Vendors in the security space are multiplying quickly, and most of them use messaging that is confusing and filled with enterprise-level security jargon. Once you build a solid security package, you then have to sell that premium package at a premium price to small businesses with little respect for security (and who have even less of a budget.)

Strong cybersecurity is crucial for businesses of all sizes today. But many businesses are unaware of the risks or simply don’t think the likelihood of an attack is very high. MSPs know better.

If you’ve been an IT service provider for more than seven years, you probably remember the transition from break-fix to managed services. That transition was a time of tremendous opportunity. Rather than sporadic income and anxiously waiting for the phone to ring, you were able to obtain the holy grail: recurring monthly revenue.
Growing A Young Business In The Midst Of A Pandemic
#businessgrowth
Now, let’s talk a little bit about my company and how I’ve grown it. When I first started, I started out simply – with one-on-one coaching and consulting. I worked individually with my clients, sometimes just the owner and myself; sometimes privately with a salesperson or small team; and other times with half a dozen members of the executive team.
From Fighting Imposter Syndrome To Best Selling Author
#businessgrowth
I often see people get elevated into a role where they naturally perform far above average. For me it’s sales. For someone else, it might be accounting. For another person, it might be healthcare. And because we do that thing well, we forget that other people don’t do it so well and that it doesn’t come naturally to everyone.
Become A Time Management Wizard

One of the best ways to absorb information is to read. Whether it’s books, podcasts, or even transcripts of training events, READING is key. But what if there was a way to absorb this information faster?
Enter speed reading. Speed reading is a technique that is the ultimate time saver. Most of us learn to read in elementary school. Once our brains mature, it could be time to upgrade the reading mechanism. That’s exactly what speed reading does. In this podcast, Jennifer Bleam shares how this new skill is helping to shape her goals and consume even more content.

MSP Sales Process Framework
#salesclose
In cybersecurity, you hear a lot about people, process, and technology. And so I’m playing with this model that MSPs can sink their teeth into: We have to market to create leads. Then we need to close those leads. So, we’ve got marketing; we’ve got sales;and we have service delivery. (And service delivery is dealing with the pesky clients: the ones that send in silly tickets and we have to smile and deal with them. But those clients are our bread and butter. They keep the lights on. So, we close the tickets and – if we’ve done service delivery correctly – we can upsell and cross-sell to those existing clients. (And of course, we have the administrative side of things to make this all work.)
Cybersecurity: Mandatory Requirement; Not Optional
#salesclose #salesprocess
So obviously there needs to be a sale in there that needs to be a markup and there needs to be margin there and, and some profit. I love making it required. Here’s the challenge. And again, there is this threshold, and this is part of why the clients that I work best with are above the half million-dollar mark. It’s very, very easy for me to say, “Hey Vince, just make it required.” But if you only had 40 clients and you didn’t have lead flow. And I said, “well, just make it required.” If they say no, then you politely or not. So, politely let them leave. Invite them to seek an MSP elsewhere.

2 Winning Arguments For More Cybersecurity Sales

Selling cybersecurity is risk mitigation. It’s not promising that you’ll never get breached. It’s not promising bulletproof security. It is stating, “We will mitigate your risk. We are going to reduce your risk.”
How To Sell Cybersecurity Solutions Easily
#salesclose #salesprocess

There are several reasons why IT professionals struggle to sell cybersecurity. Sometimes there is a mistaken belief that business owners don’t really need “that much” protection. And if someone tries to sell something that the prospect doesn’t really need, you’ll feel sleazy. This is particularly true when an MSP hasn’t been through a security incident themselves or helped a client resolve an attack.
Cybersecurity Mindset and Profit
#salesprocess
Sometimes, it can be challenging dealing with clients. Perhaps a client just added a new employee. They call you today, and they expect you to come tomorrow to deploy a new machine. That feels completely unrealistic to you. Or, despite your best efforts, your client refuses to use multi-factor authentication. Your frustration is real! But you should always try to understand what is happening in your client’s world.
