I mentioned this in my last Blog post. We live in a very “noisy” world and we need to grab their attention in less than a couple of seconds. This is true for our website too. People don’t read website content any longer. When someone lands on your homepage they will start skimming the page very quickly to decide if they want to spend more time diving deeper. ###### Topics: [Inbound Marketing for IT Companies](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/topic/inbound-marketing-for-it-companies) [MSP](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/topic/msp) [Marketing for IT Companies](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/topic/marketing-for-it-companies) [Win New Clients](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/topic/win-new-clients) [StoryBrand](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/topic/storybrand) ###### 2 min read ## [How to Make Managed Service Provider Marketing Better](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/how-to-make-managed-service-provider-marketing-better) By [Russell Stalters](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/author/russell-stalters) on Sep 11, 2019 [![](https://www.managedservicesplatform.com/hubfs/how-to-make-managed-service-provider-marketing-better.webp)](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/how-to-make-managed-service-provider-marketing-better) Here are two ways to make your making better. Managed Service Providers (MSPs) most often have really complex solutions. One challenge most people in the IT industry suffer is the “curse of knowledge”. The term was coined by Chip and Dan Heath back in 2006 and then they wrote about it in their 2007 book, “[Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die](https://amzn.to/2B0FjzS)”. Later, Lee Lefever described practical ways to combat the “curse of knowledge” in his book “[The Art of Explanation: Making your Ideas, Products, and Services Easier to Understand](https://amzn.to/2KDD9pn)”. I highly recommend both of these books to anyone who is marketing and selling IT solutions. ###### Topics: [Inbound Marketing for IT Companies](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/topic/inbound-marketing-for-it-companies) [MSP](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/topic/msp) [Marketing for IT Companies](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/topic/marketing-for-it-companies) [Win New Clients](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/topic/win-new-clients) [StoryBrand](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/topic/storybrand) [MSP Marketing](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/topic/msp-marketing) [All posts](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/all) [![Sign up for the Client Engagement Excellence Manifesto PDF coming end of January](https://hubspot-no-cache-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/default/388605/91c338c8-f4a5-4b5f-be05-e2a3093ff4c0.png)](https://hubspot-cta-redirect-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/redirect/388605/91c338c8-f4a5-4b5f-be05-e2a3093ff4c0) ### Sign up for updates ### Featured ### Pick a topic, any topic. - [Recent Posts](https://blog.humanizeit.biz) - [QBR](https://blog.managedservicesplatform.com/topic/qbr#topic) - [vCIO](https://blog.managedservicesplatform.com/topic/vcio#topic) - [Client Success](https://blog.managedservicesplatform.com/topic/client-success#topic) - [Technical Account Manager](https://blog.managedservicesplatform.com/topic/technical-account-manager#topic) - [Humanize IT podcast](https://blog.managedservicesplatform.com/topic/humanize-podcast#topic) ##### PRODUCT PRODUCT - [IT Client Engagement](https://www.humanizeit.biz/it-client-engagement) - [IT CRM](https://www.humanizeit.biz/strategic-msp) - [IT Sales](https://www.humanizeit.biz/it-sales) - [Pricing](https://www.humanizeit.biz/pricing-old-877) ##### QBR TOOLKIT QBR TOOLKIT - [QBR Discussion Points Checklist](https://info.humanizeit.biz/qbr-discussion-points-checklist) - [Executive QBR Power Questions](https://info.humanizeit.biz/executive-qbr-power-questions) - [Remote QBR Checklist](https://info.humanizeit.biz/remote-qbr-checklist) - [QBR Annual Playbook](https://info.humanizeit.biz/qbr-annual-playbook) - [QBR Time Calculator](https://info.humanizeit.biz/qbr-time-calculator) ##### RESOURCES RESOURCES - [Peer Groups](http://www.managedservicesplatform.com/peer-groups) - [Upcoming Events](https://www.humanizeit.biz/upcoming-member-events) - [QBR Toolkit](https://www.humanizeit.biz/qbr) - [Win New Clients with IT Audits](https://www.humanizeit.biz/win-new-clients-resources) - [Upsell Clients with QBRs](https://www.humanizeit.biz/expand-existing-clients-resources) - [Implement New IT Services](https://www.humanizeit.biz/implement-new-it-services-resources) - [Structure vCIO Operations](https://www.humanizeit.biz/structure-account-management-and-vcio-operation) ##### BLOG BLOG - [Quarterly Business Review - QBR](https://blog.managedservicesplatform.com/topic/qbr) - [Virtual CIO - vCIO](https://blog.managedservicesplatform.com/topic/vcio) - [IT Account Management](https://blog.managedservicesplatform.com/topic/it-account-management) - [IT Consultative Sales](https://blog.managedservicesplatform.com/topic/it-consultative-sales) - [Cyber Security](https://blog.managedservicesplatform.com/topic/cybersecurity) [![HIT white powerd by msppng](https://www.managedservicesplatform.com/hubfs/HIT%20white%20powerd%20by%20msppng.png "HIT white powerd by msppng")](https://blog.humanizeit.biz/) - [Terms](https://www.humanizeit.biz/terms-conditions) - [Privacy Policy](https://www.humanizeit.biz/privacy-policy) Copyright © 2020 Humanize IT
