Erick and Rich discuss whether or not we’re in an AI bubble and how much MSPs should be worried if we are, before exploring strategies for increasing profitability and client retention by selling outcomes instead of tools. Then they’re joined by the co-founders of Titan, a venture capital-backed A.I. software company/MSP rollup that’s building something totally new in the history of managed services. And finally, one last thing: Beware the surf-jacking otter of Santa Cruz, Calif.

Shield Technology Partners Is Building Something Totally New in Managed Services
