Podcast: What do you need to know before acquiring your first MSP?

The MSP acquisition landscape is hotter than ever, with more buyers than sellers and fierce competition for quality businesses. If you’re looking to grow through acquisitions, standing out requires more than just offering the highest price.

In the latest Technology Reseller News podcast, Hartland Ross joins Doug Green for an insightful podcast episode, diving into the complexities of acquiring an IT company or MSP.

Key takeaways include:

• Define Your Acquisition Criteria – Knowing what you want (and don’t want) ensures you focus on the right opportunities.
• Build Trust with Sellers – Sellers care about their employees and customers post-sale. Transparency and a clear transition plan make a difference.
• Move Fast – Time Kills Deals – Slow responses and inefficient due diligence can cause sellers to walk away.
• Understand Deal Structures – Earnouts, financing, and integration planning play a crucial role in post-acquisition success.

If you’re serious about MSP acquisitions, you won’t want to miss this discussion.
