Episode 215 Welcome to a special episode of the MSP Marketing Podcast with me, Paul Green. This is THE show if you want to grow your MSP. In the first of our series of Special Episodes heading into 2024, I'm joined by Intelligent Technical Solutions CEO Tom Andrulis. Tom and I discuss the hot topic of mergers & acquisitions. Tom also shares some of the stories and secrets, and tells the tale of how he grew his business from nothing to having $40 million in revenue in just 20 years. Featured guest: Tom Andrulis is the Chief Executive Officer of Intelligent Technical Solutions and has been at the helm for nearly two decades. A hands-on CEO, Tom directs the operational aspects of ITS and is involved in its day-to-day business decisions. He is also primarily responsible for top-down value alignment, as well as steering the company towards its vision.   Tom founded ITS back in 2003, after working and finding success with several business owners who had issues with their technology. He knew right then and there that he wanted to help businesses improve their efficiencies. As a business owner himself, he understood well enough that technology is a critical component to his clients’ success.  Tom has a genuine passion not just for working with new and innovative technologies, but also with many kinds of people. Perhaps it’s no surprise that ITS is a people-oriented organization. Tom is driven by the fact that he can make a difference in people’s lives, including entrepreneurs who need help in solving their problems.   Despite his dedication and zeal for his role, Tom is a family man first. He loves spending time with his family, especially watching his son play soccer. He also enjoys sports and the great outdoors: He loves working out, snowboarding, and mountain biking.   Connect with Tom on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tomandrulis/ Extra show notes: Listen or watch every Tuesday on your favourite podcast platform, hosted by me, Paul Green, an MSP marketing expert: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-green-msp-marketing/ https://www.paulgreensmspmarketing.com/about/ You can join me in the MSP Marketing group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/mspmarketing/ Find out about my MSP Marketing Edge service: https://www.mspmarketingedge.com Subscribe to my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/mspmarketing Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-green-msp-marketing/ Subscribe to this podcast using your favourite podcast provider: https://www.audible.co.uk/pd/Paul-Greens-MSP-Marketing-Podcast-Podcast/B08JK38L4V https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/paul-greens-msp-marketing-podcast/id1485101351
