Uncle Marv welcomes Annie Mosbacher and Kristin Spiotto, co-founders of Decoded Strategies, to discuss their unique approach to marketing for MSPs. The conversation kicks off with a lighthearted chat about recent movies, setting the stage for a deeper dive into storytelling in marketing.

Annie and Kristin explain how their company differs from traditional marketing agencies by focusing on story-based strategies. They emphasize the importance of positioning the customer as the hero and the company as the guide in marketing narratives. This approach helps MSPs create more engaging and effective marketing messages that resonate with their target audience.

The duo highlights common mistakes MSPs make in their marketing efforts, such as jumping straight into tactics without developing a clear brand story. They stress the need for MSPs to invest time in crafting their unique message before spending money on websites, SEO, or other marketing channels.

Annie and Kristin share insights on how MSPs can become trusted guides for their clients, emphasizing the importance of empathy and authority in marketing communications. They also discuss the challenges of differentiating in a crowded market and offer strategies for standing out. The conversation touches on Decoded Strategies' journey into the MSP space, their partnerships with industry organizations like ASCII, and their upcoming workshop for MSPs looking to improve their marketing strategies.

Throughout the episode, Annie and Kristin provide valuable advice for MSPs looking to enhance their marketing efforts, emphasizing the power of clear, customer-centric messaging and the importance of storytelling in building lasting client relationships.
