What if your next client conversation started with the three biggest risks they’re facing instead of, “How’s everything going?”

Dan and Brian Doyle of vCIOToolbox explore how AI is changing the vCIO conversation—from faster assessments and smarter QBRs to finding the mundane work clients are ready to automate. And as AI adoption grows, so does a much bigger opportunity for MSPs: helping clients implement, secure, and govern it.

We may be living through the MSP industry’s next dot-com moment.

Eric Torres of Pax8 joins Dan to talk about the massive opportunity AI is creating for MSPs, the shift toward Managed Intelligence, and why building the right guardrails matters as adoption accelerates. They also dig into how Pax8 is using AI internally to eliminate repetitive work and why MSPs shouldn’t worry about being “behind.”

Whatever stage you’re at, the opportunity is still in front of you.

Forget the complicated platforms, elaborate builds, and AI buzzwords for a minute.

Tony Francisco joins Dan Tomaszewski to talk about how MSPs can start putting AI to work today—without overcomplicating it. From analyzing competitors and uncovering business gaps to identifying new opportunities for clients, Tony shares practical ways MSPs can use AI to work smarter and deliver more value.

Sometimes the smartest AI strategy is surprisingly simple. Dazzle them with the basics.

AI is creating opportunities that go far beyond automation and efficiency. Live from ChannelCon 2026, Dan sits down with Nancy Hammervik, Chief Channel Officer at GTIA, to discuss GTIA’s work with the United Nations’ AI for Good initiative, what it could mean for the channel, and why MSPs have a role to play in what comes next. They also explore GTIA’s new local chapters and why human connection may matter more than ever in an AI-driven world.

Copilot doesn't necessarily create your clients' security problems—it may just make them much easier to find.

Dan and Derik Belair of Augmentt explore what happens when AI meets years of overshared files, excessive permissions, global admins, and messy Microsoft 365 environments. Plus, they discuss how MSPs can turn Copilot readiness into a valuable security and advisory conversation with clients.

Your MSP stack shouldn't run on autopilot.

Dan sits down with John Douglass of Pileus Technologies at ChannelCon 2026 to talk about regularly evaluating your security stack, identifying gaps, proving the value of new tools, and keeping clients informed when things change. Because sometimes the biggest risk isn't choosing the wrong tool—it’s never questioning the one you already have.

AI is moving beyond the hype and directly into the way MSPs work.

Dan Tomaszewski sits down with Dee Zepf of Syncro to explore how AI is changing everyday MSP operations—from ticket summarization and intelligent dispatch to MCP, voice-driven workflows, and custom automation. They also dig into one of the biggest mistakes MSPs make when adopting AI, why starting small matters, and how to gain efficiency without losing the human connection clients still expect.

Plus, as clients begin adopting AI themselves, what role should their MSP play in helping them do it securely?

If you're wondering what practical AI adoption actually looks like inside an MSP today, this conversation is a great place to start.

Too many tools. Too many tabs. Too much time spent just trying to find what you need.

Dan and Carlson Choi of Slide break down why the traditional “single pane of glass” often falls short, what real integration should look like, and how MSPs can use AI to reduce non-billable work and give technicians valuable time back.

MSPs can tell you how many endpoints they manage, how many users they support, and what’s running in a client’s environment.

But ask how many domains that client owns, who has access to their DNS, or what systems are sending email on their behalf—and things can get a little murkier.

In this episode of the[STACK], Dan Tomaszewski sits down with Geras Hovhannisyan, CEO and Founder of EasyDMARC, to uncover one of the most overlooked layers of the MSP stack.

They dig into why DNS and domain management remain such major operational headaches, why DMARC alone isn’t enough to secure email, and how MSPs can move from reactive troubleshooting to proactively managing their clients’ email trust infrastructure.

Plus, they explore how something many MSPs are already managing could become another recurring service—and revenue opportunity.

If domains and DNS have ever felt like a “set it and forget it” part of your stack, this conversation may change that.

The Tech Guy era is over.Recorded live at ChannelCon 2026, Dan sits down with MJ Shoer, Chief Community Officer at GTIA, to discuss how the role of the MSP is changing faster than ever. From building trust with clients to navigating AI governance and risk, this conversation explores why the most successful MSPs won't simply be technology experts—they'll become trusted business advisors.They also dive into GTIA's newly announced local chapters, the importance of peer collaboration, and why community may be one of the biggest competitive advantages an MSP can have.If your clients still see you as "the tech guy," this episode explains how to change that—and why now is the time.
