The Success Wise series kicked off February 15 with a Business Planning webinar. Using simple methods and real-world tools every IT provider can implement, participants learned how to develop a winning business plan, three tools that will increase sales in 2011, the top three mistakes most business owners make – and how to avoid them. A repeat of the first webinar in the series will take place February 22.

Pica originally struggled to convert his suburban Philadelphia break/fix shop into an MSP. Lead generation was a constant challenge, qualifying prospects was harder yet, and potential clients didn't understand the value of managed services. Through years of trial and error, Pica was able to add new managed services agreements each month, achieve predictable sales growth, soaring margins and increased net worth. Pica's business brought in $6 million a year in recurring revenues at the time of its sale in 2005, and today, IT service companies pay thousands of dollars for Pica's personal guidance

"No one has the reputation and the background of Gary Pica or has the ability to motivate and guide IT service providers to transform their businesses, convert their ideas into results, and reach their full potential as managed service providers," said ConnectWise CEO Arnie Bellini. "ConnectWise is proud to partner with Gary to bring Success Wise live webinars to the IT Nation and to play a greater role in helping our partners triple their profits."

"I am excited about this opportunity to partner with ConnectWise to bring real business transformation content to the industry. As one of ConnectWise's first clients our relationship has spanned over eight years," said Gary Pica. "The software, support and community provided by ConnectWise were at the center of my company's success."
