The MSPtv schedule will continue to evolve and change, offering a cumulative series of interactive educational and "infotainment" presentations geared toward the managed service provider and the IT channel.  MSPtv hosts a selection of on-demand events, live webcasts and roundtable discussions, where industry-wide thought leaders impart insights, analyze trends and offer success strategies.  Recent content has spotlighted business journalist and channel specialist Heather Clancy (former editor-in-chief of CRN) on managing virtualization; and Pamela Bilbrey and Brian Jones, authors of Ordinary Greatness: It's Where You Least Expect It...Everywhere.  Forthcoming presentations will feature Channel Insider Editor Carolyn April on selling managed services, and Channel Pro with guests Cyndi Laurin and Craig Morningstar, authors of The Rudolph Factor: Finding the Bright Lights that Drive Innovation in Your Business.  MSPtv currently has nearly 200 programs in its archives and will continue to add an average of 12 to 15 programs per month.

The portal is designed to be valuable for industry newcomers and channel veterans alike, with topics covering new client acquisition, contract writing, business continuity, marketing skills, cloud computing, disaster recovery solutions and more.  Many of the live MSPtv shows are available for viewing or downloading within 24 hours of their original broadcast.  Visit the MSPtv program calendar for current listings.

"This is a fast-paced industry. MSPtv is an engaging media vehicle that reflects the excitement and speed at which our IT universe moves," said MSPtv Producer Stephanie Yeager.  "The platform provides progressive, stimulating channel news and B2B insights, delivered right to the desktop. Educational content is focused on the interest of our MSP community, in addition to the overall solution provider community."

Changing the Educational Paradigm

Internet-TV and streaming media are transforming the way people view and interact with their information.  Streaming media venues such as YouTube and iTunes continue to climb in popularity, and a recent Forrester Research report predicted online video will be the fastest growing sector of Internet marketing by 2012, surpassing other applications like email.  MSPtv adapts this medium to inform the IT solution provider, with a special emphasis on services, with contributions from some of the industry's most well-known pundits.

"The roster of quality leaders we've assembled for MSPtv is impressive," stated Yeager. "We provide access to a body of work that has been cultivated by some of our most renowned peers, focused on proven business acumen.  We think that's a terrific value proposition to put on the table."
