NO-BS MSP ADVISORY FOR OWNERS WHO ARE DONE WINGING IT.

    I help MSP owners assess where the business really stands, build a 12–36 month roadmap, and create the operating discipline needed for growth, margin, and stability.

    Led by Mike Kolb, a 17-year MSP veteran and former MSP COO who helped grow an MSP from roughly $2MM in MSP revenue to a projected $10MM MSP revenue business with healthy profitability.

    THE MSP OWNER REALITY CHECK

    Five honest questions. A scored result. A clear picture of the two or three things quietly capping your MSP's growth.

    About 9 minutes. Your results stay private. No newsletter spam.

    BUSY IS NOT THE SAME AS HEALTHY

    Your MSP might be growing. The tickets might be moving. Clients might be calling. The team might be working hard.

    But if no one is truly driving the MSP side forward, busy turns into chaos. The owner stays stuck in sales, escalations, operations, team issues, and decision fatigue. The business gets bigger, but it does not get stronger.

    MSP Hero exists to help owners create growth, stability, operational discipline, better margins, and a business they actually want to run.

    Primary Offer

    MSP ADVISORY BUILT AROUND YOUR ACTUAL BUSINESS

    No two MSPs are the same, so MSP Hero does not force every owner into the same canned framework.

    Advisory usually starts with an Owner Assessment to understand your goals, followed by a robust Operational Maturity Assessment to see where the business really stands. From there, Mike builds a 12–36 month roadmap focused on the outcomes that matter most: growth, stability, margin, leadership, accountability, service delivery, and execution.

    I'VE SAT IN THE MSP SEAT

    I'm Mike Kolb. I've spent around 17 years in the MSP industry across engineering, consulting, service delivery, leadership, COO-level work, and strategic advisory.

    I have lived the problems MSP owners deal with every day: messy service delivery, unclear accountability, weak process, tool sprawl, decision fatigue, client pressure, leadership gaps, sales-to-ops disconnects, and teams that need more structure than the owner has time to build.

    I helped grow an MSP from roughly $2MM in MSP revenue to a projected $10MM MSP revenue business with healthy profitability. Now I help MSP owners build stronger companies without forcing them into a generic playbook.
