# Client expansion

Client expansion is the practice of increasing recurring revenue from existing MSP clients by adding services, moving them to a higher tier or selling outcomes tied to their business priorities.

Client expansion is revenue growth that comes from clients the MSP already serves. It is usually cheaper than winning a new client because the relationship, billing relationship and trust are already in place.

## Why it matters to MSPs

Expansion revenue improves net revenue retention. If a business retains its existing clients and sells them more each year, it can grow even without adding many new logos. The best MSPs treat expansion as a standard operating process, not a sporadic sales push.
