Five minutes, the first Tuesday of every month. ## KNOW WHERE YOU STAND Most MSP owners can tell you their revenue to the dollar. Ask whether their margins are any good and you get a shrug. Peers don't share their numbers, and annual surveys are stale by the time they land. The Vision Brief closes that gap with real benchmarks from MSPs using [Vision](https://beringmckinley.com/vision?hsLang=en), the news that's moving your margins and what to do about it, and the latest from the [BMK Vision Podcast](https://beringmckinley.com/bering-mckinley-podcast-blog?hsLang=en). It comes from Bering McKinley, which has spent almost two decades helping hundreds of MSP owners grow, scale and exit. ## FAIR QUESTIONS ### Real numbers, or another survey? Real numbers. Every benchmark comes from MSPs that run their business in Vision, rolled up and anonymized so no single company can be picked out. No self-reported guesses. ### Do I have to use Vision? No. The numbers come from Vision, but they're written so any MSP owner can measure their own shop against them. ### What's the catch? There isn't one. It's free. Each issue ends with one way to work with BMK, and everything above that line is yours to use whether you ever call us or not.
