Consultant, Melissa Hockenberry, coaches MSP leaders on client retention. Preventing moments when your team is too “in the weeds” to deliver what you promised is key to this. How can better project management help? 

When you are running an MSP, projects can be a cash cow or a scope-creep nightmare. It all comes down to your methods for managing them. When you choose Moovila Perfect Project to help you do that, Becca Campbell will teach your team to use it to become expert project managers.

Building client trust starts with how you communicate. Whether you’re explaining a project delay, onboarding a new customer, or keeping them informed throughout delivery, every interaction shapes their confidence in you. Too often, MSPs underestimate the power of transparency, planning, and follow-through. As Dan Keltner of Intrust IT puts it, “Part of the trust relationship you’re building is being able to say, here’s what’s going on.”

As MSPs grow, projects outpace spreadsheets and sticky notes fast. But that doesn’t always mean it’s time to hire a pricey Project Manager. A Project Coordinator—focused on tasks, timelines, and templates—can often handle the load. With the right processes and tools in place, they’ll keep projects on track and budgets intact until you truly need a PM.

Parker Sox, VP of Product at Moovila, is the crucial link between customer needs and the engineering team’s to-do list. He makes sure that the features the team works on align with what customers want and need. For Parker, every day is different, but the goal is always the same: Get the right work done well.
