What I hear when an owner in Blue Ash actually picks up the phone
When a new prospect calls me, the first conversation is almost never about hardware. It's about pressure. Their biggest client sent over a 14-page security questionnaire and nobody in the building can answer half of it. Their cyber insurance renewal is asking questions their current IT guy is dodging. Somebody they know got hit with a wire fraud and now their own leadership is paying attention. By the time they're on the phone with me, they're not shopping for a vendor — they're tired and they want a grown-up to take it off their plate.
The other thing I hear, almost every time, is some version of "we've already tried this." They've been through the one-man shop that stopped answering. They've been through the bigger MSP that locked them into a three-year deal and then quietly let service drift. They've had a guy. They've had a nephew. They've had a help desk in another time zone. None of it stuck, and now they're skeptical that anybody can actually own all of it — Microsoft 365, the laptops, the network, the backups, the security, the vendor calls, the roadmap — without something falling through the cracks.
That's the gap I built SkyNet MTS to fill. Managed IT services on a flat monthly rate, month-to-month, no long contracts. If I stop earning it, you should be free to fire me — and when you call, you get me or someone on my team who already knows your environment, not a ticket queue in another country. I answer my own phone. I'd rather work under that kind of pressure than hide behind paperwork, because the owners I want to work with in Blue Ash can tell the difference inside the first month.
