WHAT ATTENDEES SAID

“The game was very well done. There were a lot of takeaways that we can use to analyze what we’re doing and things we can improve.”
Tim Ward
TechQuility

“It was nice to pull up to the 100,000-foot view. It got us thinking longer term about managed services vs. break/fix.”
Nick Zafer
TeamLogic IT of Kalamazoo

“I’ve got a good tech background, but I’ve never had a class in business. It was a positive learning experience.”
Allen Jackson
OnCall Computers

“It helps you to refocus on your business, as opposed to focusing on just the day-to-day operations and the daily grind.”
Tom Karakis

MSP Workshops Are Coming to You!

Chicago, Oct. 14 - See what happened!

New York, Nov. 11

Los Angeles, Nov. 18

Washington D.C., Dec. 9

CompTIA is pleased to bring the CompTIA MSP Business Simulation Experience to four cities in 2009. This hands-on workshop, presented by Amy Luby of MSPSN, is set up in a game format where teams make all the decisions about marketing, sales, operations, HR and finance for a managed services provider -- and own the results. By going through the exercise, participants will gain valuable business knowledge, as well as learn techniques and strategies to improve their profits.

Teams of six will experience entrepreneurial business in a competitive market, using a game board to track their progress. Participants learn how business capacity challenges, hiring decisions, pricing strategies and other business decisions are connected and ultimately affect the bottom line. Most importantly, the exercise will immediately benefit your business, giving you actionable ideas on how to grow revenues.

This nearby, low-cost and convenient training is most helpful for resellers who make budgetary decisions for their companies. Because of the intensive nature of the simulation, space is limited to the first 36 registrants. Don't miss out, register today!


You will walk away with:

  • A big-picture understanding of your business and how the different areas of the business are interconnected
  • A solid understanding of financial statements, the importance of cash flow, the difference between cash flow and profit, fixed and variable costs, and the opportunities and threats of a changing marketplace
  • Marketing and sales tools to help you transition away from the single-sale model to the recurring-revenue model
  • A complimentary guidebook on finance, designed especially for solution providers
