Guest: Stanley Louissaint, Principal & Founder at Fluid Designs
Stan and I discuss the big news of the day with Kaseya acquiring Datto. Then we turn our attention to Stan's helpful tips to grow your business, even as a solo tech.

Uncle Marv's IT Business Podcast - Presented by NetAlly

In this podcast, Stan shares some of his tips and philosophies to reaching his goals.

  • Sell product to get service; service makes the most money
  • Bill based on value, not hours.
  • Invest in processes and standardization to work smarter, not harder.
  • It takes the same amount of energy to go after big clients as it does to go after smaller clients. Go after the big ones.
