Episode 30 - Building the Modern MSP: AI, Cloud & UX (w/ Guest: Jim Spignardo)

In Episode 30 of The MSP Sales Podcast, Brian Gillette sits down with Jim Spignardo, Director of Cloud Strategy & AI Enablement at ProArch, for a practical conversation about what it actually takes to build a modern MSP today. With over 25 years in IT across networking, cloud, cybersecurity, and consulting, Jim brings a grounded perspective on how MSPs must evolve beyond tools and tech stacks. Together, they explore how cloud maturity, AI enablement, and user experience now intersect - and how ignoring any of them creates friction for clients and internal teams. They discuss; ➡️ Why “modern MSP” is more about experience than tech ➡️ How AI is reshaping service delivery ➡️ The role of cloud strategy in long-term MSP relevance ➡️ Why UX matters just as much for internal teams as end users ➡️ Common mistakes MSPs make when adopting AI If you’re an MSP owner, technical leader, or consultant trying to modernize your services, this conversation will help you think more clearly about where to focus.     _____________________________________________________ Have you heard the news about Brian's new book?
