Your Legacy + Our Network = Partnering With the Best.

Know an MSP  
We Should Meet?

Shield Auto Alliance is Building a world-class network of high-performing auto body collision facilities across the country. Let’s chart a new course in collision repair.

We are looking to partner with standout MSPs. If you are connected to great founders, we would love an introduction — and we will provide a finder’s fee if we close the deal

About the
Scout Program

Apply to our Scout Network if you're regularly in touch with MSP founders. We offer structured incentives, inside access to our team, and a long-term partnership

You refer them. We’ll do the rest — and share upside if it leads to a partnership.

Who we’re looking for:

  • One-time referrers can simply share a lead and let us take it from there.
  • Scouts — those with ongoing visibility into MSP deal flow — can apply to join our network and build a longer-term relationship with our team.
  • We offer structured incentives, clear communication, and a straightforward process.
  • You refer them. We’ll do the rest — and compensate you if it leads to a partnership.
