GROUPRollup Strategy: Building the Future of IT Services
Click IT Franchise by Motherboard, Inc.
A Vision for Consolidation and Growth in IT Services
The Managed Service Provider (MSP) and computer repair markets are fragmented, dominated by small operators struggling to meet the growing demands of small businesses. Click IT sees an incredible opportunity to consolidate this market through a roll-up strategy, creating a unified network of IT service providers that deliver consistent, scalable solutions to small businesses nationwide.
Our approach combines proven systems, innovative tools, and a scalable business model to empower local IT providers while transforming the way small businesses access and experience IT services.
Example Leaders Who Rolled Up Their Industries
The Market Gap: Why a Roll-Up Is Needed
Small businesses are the backbone of our economy, yet they face significant challenges when seeking IT support. Options are limited to:
- Big-Box Retailers: Generic, one-size-fits-all services that often fail to meet specialized needs.
- Independent IT Professionals: Skilled individuals who often lack the resources to scale their services or deliver consistent results.
This fragmented market leaves small businesses underserved. It also presents an opportunity: a roll-up strategy that consolidates these independent operators into a powerful, unified network capable of delivering exceptional IT services.
