“ConnectWise’s entire mission centers around helping TSPs achieve their most ambitious vision of success, and I love being able to do that every day through our Service Leadership tools,” said Kujawa. “It’s an honor to be recognized with this award from Channel Futures, but an even bigger honor to work alongside colleagues and partners who are so dedicated to the success of our channel and our community.”
Since 2018, partners who use Service Leadership’s products have grown revenue at a rate of 16.7% annually while at the same time growing bottom line profit faster at 25.6% annually. Thus, Service Leadership clients grow faster than the rest of the industry and they grow profitability even faster. This year, TSPs can look forward to two exciting Service Leadership products, the Service Leadership Index Annual Solution Provider Compensation Report, which will be released in late April, and Service Leadership Index version 3.0, a completely updated benchmarking platform. The compensation report will provide guidance to partners about what is actually occurring in their markets with compensation and help them make better decisions with their largest business expense. Service Leadership Index 3.0 will streamline the data input process for benchmark members each quarter and deliver near instantaneous access to their financial benchmark reports.
