The service: MSP Marketing Edge

MSP Marketing Edge

MSP Marketing Edge founder Paul Green believes the secret to success for marketing an MSP is this: You need a marketing system.

The business does not offer any kind of bespoke service, but instead provides a system to its members, along with all the marketing content they need to make the system happen.

Add to this a library of go-to marketing tools, including the IT Services Buyer’s Guide, an Email Hijack book which members can brand as their own, and lead generation campaigns.

To avoid clashes with competitors, MSP Marketing Edge works with only one MSP per area, offering a waiting list if someone is already operating in your area.

Members get the benefit of belonging to the strong 700+ community of non-competing MSP owners with unlimited support from owner Paul Green and his team to attract and retain new and existing customers.

Members also have more than 100 technology videos to enhance their website's credibility, smart web tools such as a password checker, Have I Been Pwned email checker and a pricing/downtime calculator.

The cost: Tech Pro Marketing

The company does not publish prices on its website like many full-service MSP marketing agencies.

Instead, it asks you to ‘request a strategy call’ and they will create a bespoke package for you.

The cost: MSP Marketing Edge

The MSP Marketing Edge is a subscription business with a fixed monthly payment of just £149 +VAT for MSPs in the UK and USD $199 for MSPs everywhere else in the world.
