§ 01 · The Distinction

What Most Firms Are

  • MSPs — Selling their own stack
  • Resellers — Paid by the vendor
  • Big 4 — Rotating associate at $600/hr
  • "Advisors" — With a partner tier to hit
vs.

What TVG Is

  • Advisory-only — No product line to push
  • Founder-led — Chris answers your call
  • Fixed retainer — Your cost is predictable
  • Vendor-agnostic — 250+ providers, zero commissions on advisory work

The TVG approach

How the TVG team works — and what drives every recommendation

Advisory-First Oversight

When technology needs are identified through your retainer engagement, TVG sources competing solutions from our 250+ provider network and coordinates procurement — covered by your retainer. When a solution is selected, standard channel commissions are paid by the vendor, not you.

Contract & Vendor Discipline

Every vendor contract reviewed before you sign. SLAs, renewal terms, data handling, exit clauses. The fine print is where margin gets hidden and leverage gets lost. We find both.

Executive Communication

Technical complexity translated into business language your CFO, COO, and board can evaluate and act on. TVG fills the gap between your IT providers and your strategic decisions — without adding headcount.
