Strategic Advantages

Ensure that you ask the right questions about Managed Services, when something breaks, and how they can serve their customers better. Successful partners ask insightful and detailed questions. Questions like those can lead to more significant opportunities and sales. This becomes a gateway into everything else that a partner can do to help customers.

Granite has more than tripled the percentage of sales that have some sort of managed services over the last two years. A big piece of that is in conjunction with the pandemic. There are two reasons for this. One, many customers streamlined their companies early on in the pandemic to do more with fewer people. Two, the “great resignation” and many people working from home created a boom for IT. Specifically, security IT.
