IT Support & MSPs

Small businesses with a tech emergency Google "IT support near me" and call the first number they see. The MSP in the top 3 gets the emergency ticket — and the monthly retainer.

AVBOOST puts your MSP in front of small businesses the moment they're panicked and searching — then builds the digital credibility that converts break-fix calls into long-term managed services contracts.

Small MSPs do better work than the big providers — and lose clients to them anyway because of Google.

01
Buried Under Large MSP Brands
Established IT firms with marketing budgets dominate local Google searches even when their response times and service quality don't match yours. Small business owners searching "managed IT services near me" see the big names first and call them first — never getting to your firm. Visibility beats reputation if clients can't find you.
02
Break-Fix Clients Don't Convert
You fix someone's server, they thank you, and you never hear from them until the next crisis. Without a follow-up sequence and a managed services pitch built into your digital presence, break-fix clients stay break-fix clients. A single $200 ticket should be the start of a $1,200/month relationship — we build that bridge.
03
Lumped In With Consumer Repair Shops
Your GBP shows up next to Geek Squad and phone screen repair shops. A business owner searching for enterprise-grade IT support sees your listing and can't distinguish you from a consumer tech shop. Without a properly differentiated GBP and clear service descriptions targeting small businesses, you're losing the first impression that matters most.
How it works

From buried on Google to 8 new managed services clients a month — in under 90 days.

We handle the marketing while you handle the tickets. Here's the process we run for every MSP we work with.

Step 01

We Audit Your Online Presence — Free

We analyze your GBP, Google Ads landscape, LinkedIn footprint, and review profile. We map the specific searches your ideal clients run — "IT support near me," "managed IT services [city]," "cybersecurity small business [city]" — and show you your current ranking position and opportunity gap.

Step 02

We Build Your Growth Engine in 30 Days

We fully optimize your GBP, separating you from consumer repair shops with clear business-focused service descriptions. We launch Google Ads targeting break-fix and managed IT searches. We build your LinkedIn presence targeting small business owners in your coverage area. Every touchpoint reinforces managed services — not just one-time fixes.

Step 03

You Get Clients. We Keep Improving.

Post-ticket review requests go out automatically after each resolved case — when satisfaction is highest. We track Map Pack ranking, call volume, and managed contract pipeline monthly. Most MSPs see their first inbound managed services inquiry within 30 days of launch and their MRR growing meaningfully within 90.

★★★★★

"We were a 5-person MSP doing decent work but barely 2 new managed clients a month — all word-of-mouth. AVBOOST fixed our GBP, ran Google Ads for 'IT support Nashville,' and built our LinkedIn presence to reach small business owners directly. Four months later we're signing 8 new managed clients a month and our MRR grew from $14K to $41K. The ads paid for themselves in the first 30 days."

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost, and am I locked into a long contract?

Pricing starts around a flat monthly fee that covers your Google Business Profile work, review system, and reporting, with Google Ads spend kept separate so you control your own budget. There are no setup fees and no long-term contracts. You stay month to month and can cancel with 30 days' notice. We scope the plan to your service area and the searches that actually drive managed services inquiries.

How long until I start getting more IT support calls and managed clients?

We build your growth engine in the first 30 days, so Google Ads can start producing emergency and break-fix inquiries almost immediately once campaigns go live. Map Pack improvement is slower because it depends on profile signals and reviews building over time. Most MSPs we work with see their first inbound managed services inquiry within the first month, with the pipeline growing meaningfully over the following 90 days.

What's actually included, and what do you handle versus what I handle?

We handle the marketing while you handle the tickets. That means full Google Business Profile optimization with managed IT, helpdesk, network, cybersecurity, Microsoft 365, and backup listed as distinct services, plus Google Ads on local IT search terms, a LinkedIn strategy targeting small business owners, automatic review requests after each resolved ticket, citation cleanup, and monthly reporting on Map Pack ranking, call volume, and contract pipeline.

How is AVBOOST different from a big agency or just doing this myself?

Big agencies treat an MSP like any local business and miss the break-fix to managed services bridge. DIY usually means your profile sits next to consumer repair shops with no real differentiation. We focus only on local businesses, build the conversion funnel that turns a one-time fix into a monthly retainer, and report on contract pipeline, not vanity metrics. Our team is US-based and works directly with you.

How do you keep my MSP from looking like just another consumer repair shop like Geek Squad?

This is core to what we do. Many MSPs show up on Google next to phone-screen and walk-in repair shops, so a business owner can't tell you handle enterprise-grade work. We rebuild your Google Business Profile with clear business-focused service descriptions, separate distinct managed services, and target ad keywords and content toward small business decision-makers rather than consumers searching for a quick fix.

What's the first step to getting started?

The first step is a free audit of your online presence. We review your Google Business Profile, your Google Ads landscape, your LinkedIn footprint, and your review profile, then map the exact searches your ideal clients run and show you your current ranking and the opportunity gap. There's no commitment. After the audit you decide whether the plan we lay out makes sense for your firm.

Your next managed services client is searching Google right now. Are you in the top 3?

In 44 days, your MSP can hold a top-3 Map Pack position for "IT support near me" in your city. We'll show you the exact opportunity — free, no commitment.

No contracts. No setup fees. 30 days' notice to cancel — that's it.
