MSPs make their money on support. As hardware and software/cloud margins continue to decline, or at least no longer offer the promise of years past, IT services firms must differentiate and rely on new business opportunities to keep up the positive momentum. To keep and grow robust revenue streams, MSPs need to continually invest in their portfolios, building out and strengthening the services…

Automated Dunning Notices Free MSPs From their Least Favorite Chore

Image
If you’re like most MSPs, simply sending your customer their monthly invoice for your services rendered and calling it a day isn’t enough to get paid what you’re owed. Most customers need payment reminders. And when accounts become inevitably overdue, so begins the dreaded dunning notices. Most assuredly, you send invoices to your customers on time, and then spend after-hours and weekends sending dunning notices when you’d rather take much needed time away with your family and friends. You probably even make awkward collections calls and send follow-up emails, always careful to toe the line between good customer service and asking for what’s owed. You feel exhausted from continuously working in the business rather than growing the business and stressed about your complete lack of control over when customers will finally pay. It doesn’t take long before you hear every excuse: “I didn’t get an invoice.” “I lost the invoice.” “Payment is tied up in the billing department.” “The che...

Boost your MSP’s Security with a PCI-Compliant Payment Vault 

Image
MSPs are no strangers to security protocols. Security is often the “bread and butter” of their business as they spend their days defending and protecting their customers’ businesses from threats. Despite this, payment security is often an after-thought. Consider this: Does your MSP collect checks from customers? Do you store customer payment information on sticky notes or in an excel document? Do cus tomers send their payment information to you via email or text? If you answered yes to any of these questions, your MSP is not prioritizing the security of your customers’ payment data. All of these are vulnerabilities. You have good intentions—no MSP intends to put their customers’ information at risk. This simply doesn’t cut it when it comes to the high stakes of payment security and confidential information. Most MSPs sell cybersecurity and privacy packages within their services. And yet, what could be less secure than requiring your client to send a paper check by mail or stori...

Transparency, Ease & Convenience of 24/7 Payment Portal

Image
In a crowded, competitive market, it’s no secret MSPs must operate at peak efficiency and continually satisfy their customers. Of course, customers care about the value of your services, fair prices, timely responses and resolutions to their issues. This is the baseline. To stand out among your peers, the customer experience must be more than adequate. Every interaction has the potential to fall short of, or exceed customer expectations. One of the most important but overlooked parts of the MSP/customer experience is how and when a customer pays you. This process is often confusing or even downright difficult for customers. Consider this: If a customer has a question about their bill, how do they get answers? Do you offer convenient online access to view their billing and payment history, or are they required to contact you for clarification during your office hours? How have you asked your customers to make payments? Do you offer multiple easy and secure ways to make a digital paym...
