A Message from the CEO
Over the last decade, I’ve had countless conversations with MSP owners on the recurring question of how much to pay their employees.
“How much should I pay? What’s competitive in my market right now? What starting salary will give me enough runway to retain without compressing my margins?”
The guide is based on real MSP hires and offers – real compensation data gathered after helping hundreds of MSPs hire across 31 MSP roles.
Our goal is to bring clarity to the most common MSP questions about compensation.
• Am I compensating my existing employees competitively relative to my market
• How much are candidates actually accepting in my city
• How much more money do candidates need to justify accepting my offer?
Our hope is that our guide becomes a practical tool for compensation planning and supports your MSP’s growth plans (as you secretly plan for world domination).
If you’d ever like to discuss how this salary data applies specifically to your MSP, I’m always open to the conversation.
Thank you for trusting Bowman Williams as your MSP hiring partner.
