BREAKING UP IS HARD TO DO- JUST DO IT & CUT YOUR LOSSES!

Break up & find a new partner! Why do organizations stay in relationships with horrible clients? Waiting for better? Waiting for the client culture to change? Pride? Loss of revenue? Too much Skin in The Game already invested? None of these are good enough excuses. This week I heard about two Big MSP players in my space that are "dating" really "wicked ugly" clients. In both cases these MSPs have thrown in so many resources including: time, money, SME consulting power, technology programmers, program managers, account managers, etc! When things are still bad after year 1 of "living together" and you have not made any real progress (OR REAL MONEY)...you may need to break it off! Sometimes you need to kick your client partner to the curb or your organization will get sick! Nothing like a toxic relationship to stop you from pursing other great things. OR Can it be your organization just likes to date ugly and mean? Clean YOURSELF up, go find yourself partners that Value what you Value and align with Healthy, Handsome and Stable client partners. Bring Sexy Back! Think Sexy not Sicko!
