Easly that is because of me. I had that in a thread or two today, but they got released.

My entire account is controversial. It's SW's way of saying, we're watching you to make sure you don't go on a tear.

Good question. I have no idea.

@scottalanmiller I want to start a MSP thread-
I saw that too and since it was his first post figured that someone is trolling us.

LOL, that thread is super weird. And the OP doesn't appear to have responded... quite fishy.

I get the first time posters that ask how to get their laptop to boot and stuff like that. A post about starting a MSP as a first post?

Right, exactly. Everyone needs a first post and there are loads of questions to ask, discussions to get into and stuff that make sense. Leaping into "I'm going to run a company managing people like you all... that I need advice from" is really odd.

Why aren’t they moderating repetitive topics too.
And the horrible titles that doesn’t even go with their post. -

And the horrible titles that doesn’t even go with their post.And I keep getting told contradictory things. Like to "follow community rules" by someone that we know is breaking the rules to post the very post in which they say it. Or telling me to remember to treat the people as professionals - when the very problem is that that's what I did and in reality, he wasn't. They want me to say I'm treating them like professionals, but then actually treat them like children.

"Hello People,
Thank you so much for the answers...and I am sorry for confusing things here with a bad example of a VAR and not a MSP.
Let me try again to make sense, Here is the plan:
I have worked for Microsoft (contact Center - Enterprise SBS troubleshooting), Dell and IBM (Managed services division) for more than 15 years now started as a tech resource and grew to a project/Program Manager handling services projects including transitions and transformations.
-
I would like to start off using the RMM such as Labtech or solarwinds to monitor the clients environment and have them troubleshoot on a need basis. Once a I have a few clients that i manage then i would like to expand/grow.
-
To grow I can start selling servers and storage etc and then provide services in a package for rack and configure etc - (sorry a bad example in the first go).
I hope this makes it clear about my MSP intention. However, the question is that I have only worked on Windows technology all my life but sometimes you may get clients with Mainframe and AIX in their DC's so do i reject their contracts? or just provide services related to windows only.
One of my friend is located in Singapore and can support me with this in a 24*7 model as it is an exact 12 hour difference between Canada and Singapore.
apart from that I need help with generating leads (THE MOST IMPORTANT) how and where do i get the leads from... I am not a sales person however, I am very good at building repo and working with customers and I have FULL confidence in my self that I will be able to make it through sales (might also consider sales training)
I also need help with Sales pitches if someone can help with templates or scripts which I may use and modify as per my needs (Voice and Email) that would be good too."
Doesn't have sales either.

If you don't want your entire set-up peer-reviewed, why include it? Simply ask your question and leave out the irrelevant stuff.
He included all of that stuff on purpose, for the specific purpose of having it reviewed... you can tell.

Oh yeah, for sure. He totally set us all up. He was planning on blowing up over us not condescending and treating him like a child from the very start.

Yeah, while I'm sure that answer technically comes under some clause of the Comunity guidelines, the original question would've needed to be correct. By including all that extra detail it's assumed the OP is also asking for comments/questions on the entire post.

Remember that I said that MS MultiPoint Server questions were coming? LOL

Yeah well... what can ya do.
I suppose if you let more people keep doing what they are doing, more things will break more frequently, therefore keeping MSPs in business such as NTG and B&A ^_^

that's not really a new question - it's just a re-asking of his old one, this time more appropriately. Granted he still lead off with a tech that he probably shouldn't be using.

This guy is really angry about how much Windows costs, thinks it is insane, but gets upset if you even ask why he didn't consider a free alternative. Clearly the cost can't be insane if he sees that level of value in it, the two things can't overlap.

@scottalanmiller Personally, I think CALs are silly, but it's model Microsoft chose for licensing. Who are any of us to complain?
