EP 270 Vendor Break-ups: When Staying Costs More Than Leaving

In this episode of MSP Unplugged, we dive into a topic every MSP faces eventually: when it’s time to part ways with a vendor. Whether it’s poor support, broken promises, rising costs, or lack of innovation, sticking with the wrong vendor can hold your business back.

 

We discuss the warning signs that it’s time to reevaluate the relationship, how to assess the real cost of staying, and the steps to take for a smooth transition. We also share personal experiences and tips on navigating tough conversations, maintaining professionalism, and protecting your clients during a switch.

 

 Key takeaways:

• Red flags that signal a vendor relationship is failing
• How to measure the cost of inefficiency vs. loyalty
• The right way to plan and execute a vendor transition
• Why staying too long can damage your service and reputation

If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s time to make a change—or how to handle one—you won’t want to miss this episode.
