About this episode

Richard Wingfield discusses his transition from a Mac-focused consultancy to a cross-platform MSP and the strategies for a successful exit.

I sit down with Richard Wingfield, owner and head geek at Envision Design, to unpack how he turned a 30‑year Mac‑focused consultancy into a cross‑platform MSP with a clear path to retirement via a CTO buyout. We get into valuations, client transition, mastermind lessons, and why working yourself out of a job is the smartest thing you can do as an IT business owner.
