6:53 -  Robb asks about the number one mistake made during his first year. His biggest mistake, he says, was not learning enough. He also discusses how long it took him to land his first major client. Taher further explains how producing relevant content and attending various events may help with marketing. 

10:18 - Taher discusses the MSP Camp and how helpful it would have been if he had known about it when he was just starting out. He also highlights how detailed and particular social media content should be in order to have a successful campaign.

16:33 When it comes to marketing, Brian agrees with Taher. Marketing should concentrate on "what do they care about?"". Robb adds that engaging in social media is also highly important. Tim expresses his observation that many MSPs do not have marketing staff or outsource marketing to a marketing business but do not devote enough effort to it. 

19:37 Taher points out how important time is in marketing, “time is a strategy”.
