The brief
Managed Service Providers work in Birmingham
Birmingham has a large base of small and mid sized businesses, and many of them buy their IT support, their telephony or their compliance work from a managed provider rather than hiring in house. The city also has a dense cluster of professional services firms, recruiters, accountants and legal practices, and those firms are steady buyers of managed contracts. Demand is spread across the city centre, the Jewellery Quarter, Digbeth and the business parks out towards Solihull and the M42 corridor. Paid search in this trade is competitive because a single contract is worth a lot, so providers bid hard on support and helpdesk terms. Franchises and national providers appear in the results, and so do owner run firms with a few engineers, which means the organic results still have room for a local provider with well built pages.
