Mark wrote the book in late 2018, based on his experiences of working with 100’s of IT support and customer service businesses during his career at Customer Thermometer. It was published in January 2019, briefly hitting the best-seller #1 slot.
He followed it up a few months later with a Helpdesk Habits customer service video training programme and certification.
To date 3,000+ engineers and technicians around the world have been certified.
His original vision of certifying 10,000 people is moving closer as helpdesk teams embrace the concept of remembering the human beings on the end of the endpoints …
He has followed up his first book with MSP Secrets Revealed, with Episode #2 being published in October 2023.
“Best book ever!
I’ve about 20 pages left to go in this book and I don’t want it to end!
It’s such an eye-opening experience, I would 100% recommend this book to anyone who is starting out on a helpdesk or even experienced professional. ”

In July 1997, whilst living and working in Australia, Mark had one of those defining moments.
Whilst sat in front of a haemotologist, he asked the specialist (where he’d been rushed to that day), whether he was going to live or die. The specialist answered, “I don’t know”.
At the age of 27, he was diagnosed with the rare, Hairycell Leukaemia, which typically affects 60 year olds and upwards. After being part of a clinical trial, Mark has been in complete remission for 15 years.
The full story he wrote on his 40th birthday, is here.
He chatted about it on a podcast here.
