HOW VISION RUNS
AT THE START
1. Onboard
Your financials connect to the Vision platform and we assess how the business operates. You get one readout with your numbers measured against BMK's standards, so the plan starts from fact.
AT THE START
2. Strategic Planning Session
One to two days with your leadership team that produce your one-year business plan, with milestones, initiatives and goals that each have an owner and a date.
MONTHS 1 TO 12
3. Monthly plan work
Every month your consultant works the plan with you: a plan meeting with action items, accountability on goals, a review of your numbers, and hands-on help where you need it.
MONTHS 3, 6, 9 AND 12
4. BMK Quarterly Review (BQR)
Every quarter we step back and review the plan, the business and the financials together, score the quarter against the plan, then reset the next ninety days.
THE PLAN IS THE PRODUCT
BIG GOALS, BROKEN DOWN UNTIL SOMEONE OWNS THE NEXT STEP
Every company goal breaks down into milestones, initiatives and goals, each with one owner and a date. Every monthly plan meeting ends with action items, and your team works and reviews them every week.
COMPANY GOAL
$3.2M revenue at 15% net profit by December 31
Owner: CEO
MILESTONE
Agreement gross profit at 65% by June 30
Owner: CEO
INITIATIVE
Service delivery: reprice and right-size agreements
Owner: Service manager
GOAL
Reprice the 12 agreements under 50% AGP by March 31
Owner: Account manager
ACTION ITEM
Flag the bottom 12 agreements before the next plan meeting
Owner: Service coordinator

A TEAM OF EXPERTS
YOUR VISION TEAM
Each client gets a dedicated consultant who works the plan with your leadership team every month.
WHO VISION IS FOR
FROM THE FIRST HIRE TO THE EXIT
MSP owners and their leadership teams, from under $1M to $15M. Where your MSP is today decides what the plan works on first.
UNDER $1M
Growing, without a plan yet
You're growing on referrals and hustle, and nothing is written down about where the business is going. The owner is still the top tech, the salesperson and the bookkeeper.
After a year: revenue and profit growing together, on pricing that holds, and the next hire decided by the numbers.
Usually Vision Essentials: the owner and up to two leaders working the plan.
$1M TO $3M
Leaders building their teams
Your service, sales and operations leaders are hiring under them, but without roles, standards or numbers to manage by. Decisions still come back to the owner.
After a year: each leader runs their department by the plan and the numbers, not by checking with the owner.
Essentials or Strategic, depending on how many leaders work the plan.
$3M TO $15M
Scaling toward an exit
Your leaders manage managers now, and the growth that got you past $3M has flattened. A sale, a partner buyout or private equity is on the horizon.
After a year: a higher valuation, from stronger EBITDA and cleaner recurring revenue.
Usually Vision Strategic: a leadership team of three or more, each running an initiative.
