About This Episode
Oftentimes the best way to get advice on how to run your business (or ideas for areas of opportunity you hadn’t considered before) is to listen to other successful owners talk about how they got their business to where it is today.
This week, we’re joined by MSP owner Allan Jocson of Agilitec. Allan generously shares how he and his team navigated many challenging times to emerge as a highly successful MSP.
1:16 – Allan jumps in by sharing how he got started in IT and the realization that prompted him to start Agilitec.
3:50 – Robb asks Allan what he and his business partner did to help Agilitec grow in the first few years. Allan shares how stepping out of your comfort zone and learning to sell yourself and your products is vital to growth for young MSPs.
