Started in 1999 by Jeffrey Tebele, RCS Professional Services traces their roots back to Rockwell Computer and Software, a chain of electronics stores in NYC in the ’80s. By focusing on services Jeffrey has built RCS Professional Services into a multi-state provider of IT services and support. When I asked what vertical markets RCS servers, Esther said that it’s the wish to serve all companies who a Phish Phans (Jeffrey is a huge Phish Phan).

More information on the MSP Marketing peer group

The MSP Marketing peer-group is for Marketing Managers of MSPs who are actively investing in, dedicating manpower, resources and spend for marketing initiatives including cold calling, SEO, Google ad words, events, seminars, email, direct mail, etc. and have been doing so for at least 2+ years. The companies must be engaged in strictly B2B and non-transactional, lead generation marketing. Please note that we take turns meeting in each other’s cities on a quarterly basis, so there is some travel involved.  For more information, please reach out to me at edeutsch@rcsprofessional.com.
