Leads ignored. Quotes delayed. Opportunities ghosted.

In Episode 18 of The MSP Sales Podcast, Brian Gillette unpacks the quiet, often unconscious ways MSPs sabotage their own growth. It’s not about bad leads or weak marketing- it’s about hesitation, avoidance, and inconsistent execution at the time that it matters the most.

Whether it's pushing off sales follow-up, failing to respond in time, or delivering quotes that are missing clarity, these habits chip away at prospect trust and kill your sales momentum. And most MSP owners don’t even realize they’re doing it.

This episode isn’t about blame - it’s about awareness. Once you can see the pattern, you can change it, and then everything can shift.

How do you go from selling water jets to selling IT services - and actually enjoy it?

In Episode 16, Brian Gillette talks with Mike Fielstra: a former MSP “hat rack” turned sales trainer at Tech Pro Marketing. Mike brings a refreshingly grounded take on the MSP sales grind, pulling from years of direct experience cold calling, chasing down leads, and managing client engagement.

He shares stories about handling 300-dial days, transitioning from outbound to inbound, and training MSPs to stop treating every lead like a sure thing. If you've ever worn too many hats in your business, Mike’s journey will feel all too familiar.

This one’s a must-listen for anyone who's tired of fluff and ready for real talk about lead management, client follow-through, and creating a process that respects your time.

Let’s be honest: If you’re not willing to sell, lead, and face discomfort - you’re not building a business. You’re treading water.

In this episode of The MSP Sales Podcast, Brian Gillette calls out the quiet (often subconscious) habits that keep MSPs stuck:

• Hiding behind busywork
• Outsourcing sales before understanding it
• Waiting for that “perfect window” to make changes
• Hoping a new wave of motivation will wash over you

He also shares his own moments of burnout, avoidance, loss, and what it really means to keep showing up when things get hard.

If you’re tired, stuck, or wondering if you’ve got what it takes... this one is for you. Because the only way out is through.
