[139] How Microsoft Clause 6B Will Impact MSPs and Continuity and What to do

In this episode, Richard is joined by Daisy Pike, manager of Solution Consultants EMEA at PAX8. Daisy has a wealth of experience in the IT industry, as well as a degree in electrical engineering. Pax8 are a groundbreaking cloud marketplace platform for MSPs.

Daisy explains a typical day for her and what her team does, and how that fits in with the wider Pax8 mission. She also describes her background in STEM and nuclear power, and how that led her where she is today.

Richard and Daisy dig into continuity, why it’s so important for MSPs and why you need a good backup solution. She also explained why MSPs need to be aware of Microsoft Clause 6B.

Richard asked Daisy what MSPs should look for in a continuity platform, how they should explain the importance of it to their clients, and the various Pax8 continuity bundles to make it easier to implement into your existing stack.

Putting Managed Service Providers back in control!
Richard Tubb has been a leader and keynote speaker in the MSP community for the last two decades. At the helm of media company and MSP advisory business Tubblog, Richard loves to showcase tech companies disrupting the industry, as well as shining a light on new tools you might not be aware of.

His long-running and successful interview-style show, TubbTalk, features fireside style chats with the CEOs and CTOs of these businesses, to dig deep into how they got started in the industry, what inspired them to start something new and what their advice would be to anyone who wants to do the same.

But it's not all tech focused! As a former MSP owner himself, Richard knows that there are many facets to being a business owner, which is why his guests reflect that too.

Previous topics include mental health, sales, marketing, business growth, productivity, customer service and more. Wondering why you should listen? Well, as one fan put it: "It's like eavesdropping on a conversation between two friends, who are sharing their knowledge and wisdom with each other. You learn while you're being entertained."
