Know a business that could use practical technology help?
Progression In Technology appreciates introductions to businesses that may need help with managed IT, cybersecurity, compliance-aware support, business continuity, projects, cloud services, or strategic technology planning.
A referral does not have to start with a complete IT change. It can begin with one specific problem, a project, an assessment, a security concern, or a conversation about where the business needs additional support.
Who Makes a Good Referral?
A good referral is often a business that knows something needs attention but may not yet know the best next step.
A Business Looking for Better IT Support
A company may be unhappy with inconsistent support, recurring technology problems, limited planning, or a lack of visibility into its environment.
An Internal IT Team That Needs Help
An IT person or internal team may need added capacity, security support, project help, tools, documentation, or strategic guidance without replacing the team.
A Business Reviewing Cybersecurity
The organization may be concerned about phishing, ransomware, Microsoft 365 security, access controls, monitoring, backups, or other cybersecurity priorities.
A Company Facing Compliance or Insurance Questions
The business may be working through cyber insurance, client security requirements, FTC Safeguards, HIPAA, CMMC, PCI, or other applicable requirements.
A Business Planning a Technology Project
The organization may be preparing for a Microsoft 365 project, cloud migration, office move, infrastructure refresh, security improvement, or other technology change.
A Company With Backup or Continuity Concerns
The business may want to review backups, recovery planning, business continuity, recovery priorities, or how a disruption could affect operations.
A Growing or Changing Organization
Growth, new locations, staffing changes, acquisitions, new applications, or changing business processes can create new technology and security needs.
A Leadership Team Looking for Direction
Owners and leadership teams may need help with technology roadmaps, budgeting, risk priorities, vendor decisions, or fractional vCIO, vCTO, or vCISO support.
What We Can Help With
Referrals can involve an immediate problem, a defined project, or broader ongoing technology support.
A Referral Can Start Small
Not every introduction needs to begin with a large managed services conversation. Sometimes the most useful first step is simply helping the business with the need directly in front of it.
A Specific Problem
A referral can begin with a single technology or security concern that the business wants help understanding or resolving.
An Assessment or Review
A business may want a second look at its current environment before deciding what should change or where to invest.
A Defined Project
A cloud, Microsoft 365, infrastructure, office move, security, or other project can be a practical way to begin working together.
Broader Ongoing Support
If the need is larger, the conversation can expand into managed IT, co-managed IT, cybersecurity, strategic leadership, or another ongoing relationship.
How the Referral Process Works
The process is designed to be straightforward and respectful of the business being introduced.
Make the Introduction
Share the business name, contact person, and a short note about what they may need. If possible, let the contact know you are making the introduction.

We review the referral and the information provided to see whether the need appears to align with our services and capabilities.
We Have a Discovery Conversation
When there is a fit, we speak with the referred business about its priorities, current environment, concerns, and practical next steps.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who can make a referral?
Clients, business contacts, vendors, professional partners, friends, and others who know a business that may benefit from our services can make an introduction.
What makes a good referral?
A good referral is a business with a real technology, cybersecurity, compliance, continuity, project, or strategic planning need. The business does not need to be ready for a full managed IT relationship to start a conversation.
Does the business need to be looking for a new IT provider?
No. The business may already have internal IT staff or another provider. We can discuss co-managed support, assessments, cybersecurity, projects, strategic leadership, or another defined need without requiring a full replacement of existing IT support.
Can a referral start with one specific technology need?
Yes. A referral can start with a project, assessment, security concern, Microsoft 365 or cloud need, continuity question, infrastructure change, or another defined issue. If broader needs become clear later, those can be discussed separately.
What happens after I submit a referral?
We review the information provided and determine whether the opportunity appears to fit our services. When appropriate, we then coordinate a discovery conversation with the referred business.
Should I tell the business before sharing its contact information?
When practical, it is a good idea to let the contact know you plan to make an introduction. That can make the follow-up more useful and respectful for everyone involved.
Can I refer a business outside southeastern Pennsylvania?
Yes. Progression In Technology supports local, regional, remote, and multi-location organizations where the service needs and engagement are a fit. Some work may be delivered remotely depending on the service and location.
How are referrals acknowledged?
When a referral becomes a client, we make sure the referrer is thanked for the introduction. If you have questions about the current referral program details, contact Progression In Technology directly.
Where We Can Help
Referrals can come from businesses across our local and regional service areas, as well as remote and multi-location organizations where the engagement is a fit.
Have a Referral Question?
If you are not sure whether a business is a fit, you can still reach out. A short conversation can help determine whether it makes sense to make an introduction.
