True Stories from People Just Like You

What you’re about to read are true stories from past clients who, just like you, started with the dream to take their small business to the next level. With the right guidance and support, those dreams have become their reality, and I couldn’t be more excited to share their experiences with you below.

I've worked with Brian off and on for over a decade and have been able to watch him lead in multiple organizations. He's an incredible leader of leaders. When you're stuck on a problem and needing wise counsel Brian has a great ability to ask the necessary questions to help you see past the barriers in front of you to a solution in your preferred future. He's great at drawing out your best.

Navigating through the multifaceted world of Managed Service Providers (MSP) demands a leader with not only extensive knowledge but also an innate ability to expand leadership capacities within a team. I've found such a leader in Brian Hoppe. For anyone in the MSP sphere looking to mature and expand their leadership capabilities, Brian is, without a doubt, one of the most proficient coaches and leaders in the business.

I had the privilege of working with Brian Hoppe at a pivotal moment in my career, and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Working under Brian's leadership for four years was a masterclass in effective team management and productive meeting execution. He formed and spearheaded the most functional leadership team I’ve ever been a part of, and consistently led the most productive meetings I have experienced in my 19 years in the SMB space. Brian doesn’t just lead; he inspires and educates those around him. His model has profoundly shaped my own leadership style and has empowered me to lead my teams with confidence and strategy. Brian is a true leader, one who elevates not only the business but also the capabilities of the individuals within it. His impact on my career has been pivotal, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to any organization seeking a leader who not only achieves results but also fosters the growth of those he leads.

My goal for coaching is to get clarity on my priorities and figure out what I'm not seeing. A bonus is if I can get tactical support for specific issues. Brian does exactly this for me. When I come to our meeting with a lot of unprocessed thoughts, he quickly identifies areas that might be valuable to explore and we get actionable steps from the chaos. Outsourcing email and LinkedIn marketing under Brian's guidelines has been eye-opening. Also, the initial discussions regarding my long-term goals helped ground me a bit more to reality, specifically, the reality of how much more road I have to go.

I often find myself stuck in analytical loops, unsure of what step to take next. Brian helps bring clarity to my thought process. After he asks a few well-crafted questions, the path forward seems so obvious. I've always "kind of" known where I want my business to end up, but it's all uncharted territory for me. I now have a clear vision of not only the end game, but also the path to get there. If it feels like a stretch to start working with Brian, whether that be financially, or facing up to your own needs for personal growth, my advice is to make that stretch. Working with Brian is the single best investment I've made in my business. It has paid for itself many times over.

Leadership is the loneliest job at a company. Especially the top. To have another person, who has been in your shoes before, to bounce ideas, ask questions and provide guidance is invaluable. I believe my resolve in the long term vision, even with inevitable pushback, would be the greatest improvement I've seen. We've also confidently raised prices for old and new customers higher than they have ever been, which directly affects the bottom line. Having a confidant with an unbiased view is great. If you're growing and hitting all of the roadblocks most MSPs hit, Brian can absolutely help you through those much quicker than by yourself.

Brian has an excellent attitude, explains things clearly, and has a very direct honest approach. Our company has gained direction, focus, purpose, structure and organization in significant ways since working with Brian. We have implemented a robust documentation system including SOP's, a hiring process, and are giving proposals to prospective contract clients. The experience has been fantastic, valuable and transformative. Brian's advice, explanations, encouragement, resources, and direct connection to the industry has made him the ideal coach for us.

Brian is very insightful and seems to know what I need. He's tough enough to hold you accountable but also understands what's important. I truly appreciate that it's not just about business but about everything in life. The most significant change I have experienced in my business since working with Brian is more clarity and focus on what's important. Brian really shows he cares and goes above and beyond. He is very insightful and is ready to help move you forward and knows how to do it.

Fred M

If you need someone with experience to bounce ideas off of and to help you make some tough decisions, Brian's your man. He will bring a fresh set of eyes to your business and will be able to provide a perspective you might not otherwise see. It's been very helpful to be able to voice business concerns to someone familiar with the business. This has helped shape my decision making and position us for growth. Overall, it has strengthened me in my decision making which has allowed me to begin leading with confidence.
