WIN
I'm Carrie Richardson, and this is WIN: a podcast for MSP owners and IT channel sales leaders who are done guessing at sales and marketing and ready to get good at it on purpose.
My co-host Ian Richardson and I have both sat on both sides of the table. Ian built and exited an MSP and I've spent 15 years building pipeline for MSPs and channel vendors.
Between us, we've made the calls, missed the quotas, and closed the deals that actually moved revenue.
Every episode we sit down with an MSP owner, a sales leader, or a vendor exec and ask:
How are you winning?
No theory.
No recycled advice you've already read on LinkedIn.
Just the actual plays IT channel leaders are running right now to land new logos, protect MRR, and build something worth selling one day.

Scott Daigger, the strategic brain behind Buddy Web Design and Development, joins me, Carrie Richardson, on WIN for an inspiring recount of his journey into entrepreneurship.
Scott peels back the layers of his career transformation, revealing how a blend of coding curiosity and a robust business acumen propelled him from the healthcare sector to the helm of his own successful web enterprise. His tale is a testament to the power of strategic freelancing, the art of team stewardship, and the foresight to leverage platforms like Upwork in the quest for growth.
Navigating the web development seas is no small feat, especially with the tide of artificial intelligence reshaping its shores. In this episode, Scott and I explore the evolving landscape where AI's role in content creation and design is burgeoning yet still demands the nuanced human touch for understanding client needs. As we consider how AI might influence the economics of the industry, we also contrast the investment strategies of bootstrapped small businesses against their deep-pocketed corporate counterparts. It's a compelling look into how today's developers must adapt to not only technological advances but also to the diverse fiscal priorities of their clientele.
Lastly, Scott imparts the wisdom gleaned from his MBA journey, underscoring the invaluable lessons of entrepreneurship and the crucial mindset shifts required for business success. His practical advice for budding businesses aiming to carve out their digital space is nothing short of golden—clarity in vision, the significance of rapport, and the collaborative relationship between client and developer.
Wrapping up, we reflect on the potential future of AI in design, leaving us with an eager anticipation of what's to come. Join us for this insightful session, as we merge the technical with the entrepreneurial spirit, right here on WIN.
