M365 Customer Security Engagement

Campaign in a Box

Security is a huge opportunity. Many partners are making 30-50% more money from their M365 MSP customers. But only 33% of partners are engaging their customers and having the “security conversation”. Why? Because it’s tough to sell and tough to deliver – and SkyKick is changing that with Security Manager. What makes selling tough? A sales conversation on Security needs to be personalized. You need something that helps you engage the customer and help them see the M365 security needs that they can appreciate. And all this prep takes time. Security Navigator massively simplifies customer engagement.
