In this week’s episode, Jeff King shares how he grew his break fix IT company to 130 employees, landed massive government contracts, and still ended up deeply unhappy. What followed was a bold decision to let go of enterprise dreams, move away from break fix to being a true MSP, and slowly restructure to what they wanted, a smaller MSP focused on people and being happy, not just money (which they’re doing fine by the way!).

What happens when your MSP’s biggest client walks overnight? Seann Moreno lived it. He first scaled past 30 employees by learning to let go—delegating, empowering, and getting out of the weeds. But there was a fatal flaw: one client made up almost all of the revenue. And when they pulled the plug, Seann went to –$400k profit trying to rebuild from the ground up. In this candid conversation, he breaks down exactly how he eventually stabilized, rebuilt smarter, and continued to let go like he did in the beginning—result: $600k profit within a few years.
