MSP Marketing Case Study: StoryBrand Refresh Positions New York MSP for Growth
SynchroNet, a managed IT services provider, sought to increase traffic to their website and attract more quality leads. They partnered with BigOrange Marketing to revamp their messaging and website design using the StoryBrand methodology.
This MSP marketing case study outlines SynchroNet’s goals and provides insights for MSPs looking to improve lead generation and stand out in the digital landscape, strategically making the customer the hero and driving growth through innovation and design.
The Challenge
SynchroNet, a managed IT services and cybersecurity firm, caters to small to mid-sized western New York organizations. Their services range from co-managed IT services to fully outsourced IT services, focusing on business technology and IT support, infrastructure as a service (IaaS), cybersecurity and ransomware protection, cloud computing, and business continuity.
Based in Buffalo, New York, SynchroNet excels in providing personalized IT support with fixed-fee services. Their motto is, “If your business technology feels like a black hole of wasted time and money, it means one thing: You need better IT support services.”
However, as one of the top managed service providers in their area, the challenge lay in increasing quality lead generation and standing out as an MSP that offers more than just “IT support.” The goal was to not only enhance both the quantity and quality of leads, but also revamp their website to showcase the belief that their IT services help companies work smarter, reduce risk and even become a profit center.
Despite a strong reputation among existing clients, SynchroNet struggled to market their services in a manner that would result in quality lead generation and increase their customer base. While their clients attested to their exceptional service, the company’s website wasn’t connecting with potential clients in the same way.
