When the calendar flips over to a new month, on the first of the month, how many thousands in service revenue commitments do you already have from your steady clients, at the absolute minimum
Is it 4 clients each on a $1,000/month minimum services retainer
Is it 10 clients each on a $1,500/month minimum services retainer
Or perhaps, you’re starting to really scale-up and it’s 12 clients each on a $500/month minimum services retainer… PLUS 4 clients each on a $1,000/month minimum services retainer… PLUS 10 clients each on a $1,500/month minimum services retainer
Either way, if you want more predictability and stability in your business, so you can make growth, hiring, expansion, and even more basic family/personal spending decisions with MUCH greater confidence, you need to have several steady, high-paying small and medium-sized business clients on annual support contract agreements with you and your company.
After all, who really wants to start from scratch each and every month
Who really can afford to spend $300 in marketing budget and 4 hours of sales time chasing after one-shot-deal customers that spend $300 once… and then “might” call you again in a year or so. You can’t build a business that way. The numbers just don’t work.
In order for computer consulting firms, VARs, network integrators, IT solution providers, and managed service providers to have successful, profitable client lists, the only way to go is with annual support contracts.
The trouble is however that although many want to have that more steady recurring service revenue, so they know they already have several thousands in service revenue commitments at the absolute minimum every time the calendar flips over, most have no idea where to even begin.
And even among those who do make some progress in putting together their firm’s support contract offering, many make literally every rookie mistake in the book and end up having to scrap the whole thing and start over 12-18 months down the road.
But it doesn’t have to be that way, if you know what you’re doing.
And that’s the reason why the Computer Consulting Kit ™ Home Study Course has so many field-tested, proven support contract templates, tools, resources, tutorials, and best practices, so you can get your company’s support contract offering done the right way, the first time around, in the quickest possible time.
