Sunny's Silver Linings
Why Most MSPs Have a Knowledge Problem, Not a Growth Problem
I sat down with Greg Jones, SVP at Kaseya, for this episode, and it stayed with me long after we stopped recording. Greg has spent his career across government, MSP, and vendor roles, and he's watched thousands of MSPs make the same mistake: collecting more knowledge instead of executing on what they already have. We talk about his book, The Best of One Minute Wednesday, the knowledge action gap I fell into myself back in 2003, and what it takes to scale without losing yourself in the process.
