The "Lead Qualification" Problem
Pursuing unqualified SMBs resistant to multi-year MSP retainers, resulting in 60% of pipeline wasted on low-ACV deals under $5K annually
Manual scoring overlooks MSP-relevant signals such as endpoint counts exceeding 100, hybrid cloud adoption rates, or pending SOC 2 compliance audits
Overloaded reps juggling reactive support tickets alongside lead follow-ups
Sales reps overburdened by Tier 1 support tickets from existing clients, diverting 40% of time from proactive MSP lead nurturing like RMM tool evaluations
Revenue leakage from prospects appearing viable but lacking infrastructure scale, such as fewer than 50 endpoints or no multi-site connectivity needs for managed services
Scoring inconsistencies across sales and technical teams lead to disjointed MSP client onboarding, with 30% variance in qualification rates causing delayed SLAs and uneven service delivery

What Clients Say
"Prior to partnering with AIQ Labs, our sales pipeline was clogged with leads from boutique firms unable to commit to our comprehensive MSP retainers. Their tailored scoring algorithm now ranks prospects by factors like endpoint density and recent phishing incident reports, allowing us to secure four $180K annual contracts in Q1 alone—shifting our team from firefighting support escalations to strategic co-selling opportunities."
Sarah Jenkins
Director of Channel Sales, TechGuard MSP Solutions
"We rolled out AIQ's lead scoring integration with our ConnectWise platform in Q4 last year, revolutionizing our approach to VAR partnerships for co-managed IT services. By leveraging historical data on RMM deployment patterns, we've halved our initial discovery calls from 20 to 10 per week and boosted win rates on qualified leads to 35%, particularly for clients needing scalable cloud backup solutions."
Mike Rivera
VP of Partner Alliances, Nexus IT Services Group
"Running a 150-employee MSP, we faced constant frustration with leads that passed basic filters but collapsed under scrutiny of their Active Directory complexity or budget for zero-trust implementations. AIQ's nuanced scoring, factoring in endpoint diversity and RFP responses for compliance audits, has streamlined our pipeline to 25 high-potential leads monthly, culminating in a $250K multi-year deal with a regional school district focused on edtech security."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your lead scoring differ from standard CRM features?
Standard CRM tools offer basic filters, but our custom AI goes deeper, analyzing nuanced MSP signals like a prospect's history of vendor switches or their exposure to common IT vulnerabilities. We train the model exclusively on your data, achieving 85% accuracy in predicting conversions within six months. For MSPs, this means scoring leads not just by company size, but by readiness for services like disaster recovery planning. Implementation starts with a two-week audit of your pipeline, ensuring the system fits your exact workflow without disrupting daily operations.
What data sources does the system use for MSP lead scoring?
We pull from your CRM, email platforms, and website analytics, plus enrich with external sources tailored to MSPs—think public RFP databases, tech forum activity, and industry reports on cloud spend. No generic web scraping; everything is compliant and focused on IT decision-makers. For example, if a lead has posted about endpoint security issues, the AI flags it as high-potential for your managed detection services. This holistic view reduces false positives by 40%, helping your team nurture relationships with prospects genuinely needing ongoing support.
How long does it take to see results from custom lead scoring?
Most MSP clients notice improvements within the first month, with full ROI in 90 days. We begin with a rapid prototype using your existing data, scoring current leads to validate accuracy. One client, a 50-person MSP, saw their sales pipeline quality jump 32% after the initial deployment, leading to two new contracts worth $300K. Ongoing tweaks ensure the model adapts to seasonal trends, like increased demand for remote work setups, keeping your scoring sharp as your business evolves.
Is the lead scoring system scalable for growing MSPs?
Absolutely—our architecture is built for scale, handling everything from 50 leads a week to thousands without performance dips. We use robust frameworks that integrate with your PSA and RMM tools, ensuring data flows smoothly as you add clients. A mid-sized MSP we worked with scaled from 200 to 1,500 monthly leads post-merger, and our system maintained 95% uptime while improving score precision. You own the code, so expansions like adding voice interaction scoring come without vendor fees or lock-in.
How do you ensure data privacy in MSP lead scoring?
Privacy is paramount in professional services. We adhere to SOC 2 standards, encrypting all data in transit and at rest, with role-based access controls tailored to your team's needs. For MSPs handling sensitive client info, the system anonymizes personal details during scoring and provides full audit logs for compliance checks. We've helped firms in regulated sectors like healthcare avoid breaches while scoring leads on factors like HIPAA readiness. Your data stays in your controlled environment—no cloud dependencies unless you specify.
Can the system integrate with our existing MSP software stack?
Yes, we specialize in deep, two-way integrations with tools like ConnectWise, Kaseya, or Datto. Rather than superficial plugins, we build custom APIs that sync lead scores with ticket histories and service agreements in real-time. This creates a unified view, so a high-score lead automatically pulls in context like past support interactions. Implementation typically takes 4-6 weeks, with minimal downtime, and we've done this for over 30 MSPs, reducing integration errors by 70% compared to off-the-shelf options.
