- Cynomi identified five core go-to-market challenges holding MSPs back from converting cybersecurity demand into revenue, launching its GTM Academy Complete Sales Kit as a structured, practitioner-built enablement program
- The managed security services market is projected to grow from $38.31 billion in 2025 to $69.16 billion by 2030, with cybersecurity named the fastest-growing sector
- 77% of MSPs cite lack of client urgency as a major sales challenge, with technical teams struggling to translate security risk into the business-outcome language that actually drives investment decisions
- Cybersecurity buying committees now average more than eight stakeholders and are projected to exceed nine by 2026, forcing MSPs to develop persona-specific discovery frameworks for executives, finance, IT, and operations
- 66% of SMBs identify cost as their top obstacle to adopting stronger security, viewing it as a sunk cost rather than a business enabler (CrowdStrike 2025 SMB study)
- Over 56% of new managed security agreements are initiated to meet compliance requirements — including cyber insurance renewals, industry mandates, and state-level privacy laws — creating hard deadlines organic sales rarely generate
Why it matters: MSPs face a market nearly doubling to $69.16 billion by 2030, yet 77% name client urgency as a top hurdle and 66% of SMBs lead with cost objections, leaving significant revenue uncaptured. Cynomi's GTM Academy kit is positioned to win the service providers who need structured playbooks to turn compliance deadlines and expanded 8+ stakeholder buying committees into predictable deal flow.
