Marketing for IT support companies that wins monthly contracts

SEO, AI search and B2B campaigns that bring in managed services and cyber security contracts, not one-off fixes.

How do IT support companies get new clients?

IT support companies and MSPs win new clients by ranking for local IT support searches, being named when businesses ask AI tools for a provider, and reaching office managers and directors with B2B campaigns before their contract renews. Lead Gems builds this for UK MSPs, focused on monthly managed services contracts.

The demand

What your clients search for every month.

Expensive clicks, because a managed services contract is worth years of revenue. Ranking for these searches saves a lot of ad spend.

The problem

Where it support companies lose clients.

We see the same gaps again and again. Each one is fixable, and most cost more than the marketing that fixes them.

  • Referral-only growth

    New contracts arrive slowly through word of mouth.

  • Break-fix enquiries

    One-off jobs instead of monthly contracts.

  • Invisible in AI answers

    Businesses ask ChatGPT for an IT provider, and you are not named.

  • Expensive ads

    Clicks above £25 make paid search hard to scale.
