The ‘Not an MSP Show’ is a weekly live broadcast on YouTube hosted by four veterans of the MSP Industry.
Each week the hosts get together to talk about a subject that most MSPs and Small IT Business Owners can relate to, and provide advice that might help others.
The chat is usually light-hearted and entertaining, but full of useful insights, anecdotes and relatable examples. Which should prove useful to listeners no matter where they are in their journey to becoming a successful MSP.
The hosts always bring something of value, calling on their unique experiences in business and conveying their points in a casual and entertaining way.
Meet the Hosts
Pete Matheson is a former MSP owner who sold his successful IT business of ten years, just a couple of years ago.
Andrew Moon is also a former MSP owner, and he now runs Orange Nomad, a business consultancy for the ‘underdog’, as well as being a LinkedIn Marketing expert.
Scott Riley is founder of Cloud Nexus based in Leeds, and is engaged in activities with many other channel organisations as well.
Richard Tubb is also a former MSP owner, channel speaker, blogger and author.
The Not an MSP Show Origin Story
The ‘Not An MSP Show’ began life as another show called ‘Behind the Geeks’.
Behind the Geeks was a very similar concept, where four MSP experts talk about a common subject as part of a live broadcast.
The Tech Tribe’s Nigel Moore was part of the Behind the Geeks team, but with him being based in Sydney, Australia, it was very difficult to balance regular life with a broadcast in the middle of the night.
The new name came from another project Pete was working on, a coaching business called ‘Not a business coach’.
So, the ‘Not an MSP Show’ was born!
The show is no longer associated with the Tech Tribe, though the hosts are still strong supporters of it.
