At Viirtue Connect in Nashville, Jon Brinton, Chief Revenue Officer at Crexendo, joined Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, to discuss Crexendo's sustained growth, partner momentum, and the innovations driving what Brinton calls a “renaissance in voice services.” Crexendo, the parent company behind the NetSapiens platform, now serves nearly 7 million users worldwide through its expanding network of over 235 partners. Brinton credited the company's success to a partner-first strategy that allows resellers to achieve higher margins and faster growth than the overall market. “Our partners grow at about double the rate of the market,” Brinton noted. “We design our model to make them more profitable—and that fuels sustained expansion.” Brinton also previewed Crexendo's upcoming NetSapiens Platform User Group Meeting at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach, where partners will explore new applications of AI, digital channels, and conversational intelligence to enhance customer experience. “We're helping partners make customer data actionable and relevant,” he said. “There's a renaissance happening in voice services—where the human conversation is once again central to business intelligence.” A key theme for Crexendo's ecosystem is flexibility—allowing partners to own, subscribe to, or host the platform in their preferred environments. Combined with a growing ecosystem of 60+ technology partners, the company enables tailored solutions for specific markets and verticals. “Our mission,” Brinton added, “is to keep voice at the center of meaningful human interaction—while giving partners the innovation and tools they need to compete and win.” To learn more, visit www.crexendo.com or www.netsapiens.com.

This week on the Media Roundtable, we're sitting down with Lex Friedman (not to be confused with Lex Fridman), one of podcasting's original builders and a leader who's shaped the business of podcasting since Day 1.Before launching his own consulting business, Lex played a part in nearly every major chapter of the industry, including Chief Business Development at Midroll, Chief Revenue Officer at ART19, Head of Podcast Partnerships at Amazon, and Head of Podcast Strategy at Wondery. Along the way, he's helped define how ads get sold, how shows get funded, and how podcasting itself gets defined.In this episode, Lex opens up on what made podcast ads such a “win-win-win” from the start, why early pitches were simply “talk radio…on demand,” and how a listenership of “completionists” continue to set podcasts apart. He even drops an acoustic guitar analogy to explain why the word podcast isn't going anywhere, no matter how the platforms try to rebrand it."Stop apologizing for podcasting being what it is—because it's clearly working."—Lex FriedmanThe conversation covers: Ad Load Tipping Points, Completionist Behavior, Consolidation and Mega-Deals, and more.Let's go.Watch the conversation on Youtube: https://youtu.be/HjDmqUiBSQgSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Is moving fast the antidote to marketing entropy?AI gives you volume and speed, then drowns you in noise. Great ideas get sanded down by feedback loops, testing for testing's sake, and a few too many opinions. Momentum fades, quality slips, and the window closes. The fix is not more polish. It is shipping sooner. In Episode 91 of B2B SaaS Marketing Snacks, host Brian Graf and Kalungi founder Stijn Hendrikse unpack why speed protects signal, what “ship” means in SaaS today, and how the 72-hour rule forces scope that actually gets done. You'll hear how to gather real signal first, then publish fast enough to avoid dilution and keep learning tight. You'll leave with a simple cadence you can run next week: slow down to find signal, cut the work to what fits in 72 hours, ship, invite reactions, repeat. It is not fancy. It works. Critical topics in this episodeSpeed vs dilution, why waiting multiplies noise. The 72-hour rule, cut scope and keep momentum. What “shipping” means now, MVPs and tight learning loops. Find signal first, then push hard on execution. Hiring in the AI era, T-shaped teams and investigative writers. A quick note on Kalungi.ai and applying this at early stage. By the end, you'll see speed as a safeguard for signal, not a shortcut. And you'll know how to use it without losing quality.Resources shared in this episode:3 traits of an effective marketing leaderThe 4 SaaS Marketing Leadership Maturity Stages ExplainedLooking for a Startup Marketing Agency?

NEW YORK, NY – One week after exploring the potential changes coming to MLR 2026, this week's MLR Weekly

Chainalysis is inmiddels een van de bekendste namen in de wereld van blockchainanalyse en opsporing van cryptocriminaliteit. et bedrijf zelf is sinds 2022 flink veranderd. Eerder in de Cryptocast spraken we met Bas Lemmens, inmiddels Chief Revenue Officer. Nu is Bart van de Donk te gast, regional sales manager bij het bedrijf. Sindsdien zijn er meerdere overnames gedaan en is de nadruk op misdaadpreventie nog sterker geworden. Chainalysis helpt overheden, toezichthouders en belastingdiensten, maar ook banken en cryptobedrijven om criminele activiteiten op te sporen en beter te begrijpen. Dat gebeurt met verschillende producten en analyses, die inzicht geven in hoe geldstromen zich op blockchains bewegen. Wat betreft cryptocriminaliteit vallen de trends van de afgelopen jaren op. Er is sprake van een voortdurend kat-en-muis-spel tussen opsporing en criminelen. 2025 liet zelfs recorddiefstallen zien, terwijl ransomware, dat eerder juist piekte, nu iets lijkt af te nemen. Mogelijk doordat preventiemethoden verbeteren en de pakkans stijgt. Stablecoins spelen ondertussen een steeds grotere rol in illegale geldstromen. Criminelen kiezen er vaak voor omdat de waarde stabiel blijft en transacties gemakkelijk zijn, ook buiten de publieke blockchain om. Toch blijven ook alternatieven als Lightning en handel via exchanges lastig in kaart te brengen. Een sprekend voorbeeld is de operatie Spincaster, waar Chainalysis aantoonde hoe blockchainanalyse kan leiden tot concrete resultaten in opsporing. Zulke casussen laten zien dat transparantie op de blockchain een wapen kan zijn tegen misbruik. Tot slot bespreken we het jaarlijkse Geography of Crypto Report van Chainalysis. Daarin springt een opvallende top vijf uit: India, de Verenigde Staten, Pakistan, Vietnam en Brazilië staan bovenaan wat betreft adoptie. Wereldwijd is het stablecoinvolume explosief gegroeid en in alle inkomensgroepen neemt het gebruik van crypto toe. Die stijging heeft te maken met inflatie, kapitaalrestricties en de zoektocht naar alternatieven voor traditionele valuta. Ook zien we dat crypto zich steeds verder verspreidt buiten de traditionele markten.

At the MSP Summit, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, sat down with William Rubio, Chief Revenue Officer at CallTower, to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing MSPs as they prepare for 2026. Rubio emphasized that success in today's environment requires MSPs to choose the right partners rather than simply chasing products. With CallTower's expertise in cloud communications—including Microsoft, Cisco, Zoom, and CCaaS platforms such as Genesys and Five9—the company positions itself as an enabler for MSPs seeking to strengthen their portfolios without taking on every capability themselves. “It's not about selling a product—it's about building a partnership that helps MSPs grow their business and support their customers,” Rubio said. Key themes of the conversation included: AI adoption reality: While AI dominates conversations, only about 5% of businesses have actually adopted it. Rubio urged MSPs to take “baby steps”—simple automation projects that build champions and credibility inside customer organizations—before pursuing large-scale deployments. Cybersecurity opportunities: Rubio highlighted the importance of proactive communication. Instead of only responding to attacks, MSPs should show customers the value of the thousands of threats they've already blocked and explain vulnerabilities that could become future risks. The human factor: Despite the excitement around AI, Rubio stressed that relationships remain central. “AI is driven by what humans tell it to do,” he noted, underscoring that trust and tough conversations with customers are key to long-term success. Looking to 2026: MSPs must refine their self-awareness—knowing their strengths, defining their ideal customer profile, and planning thoughtfully whether to double down in a vertical or expand through partnerships. As Rubio summed it up, the MSPs that thrive will be those who plan carefully, partner wisely, and maintain strong customer relationships—balancing technology with the human element that drives growth.

"Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe." - Abraham LincolnAdvisor, consultant, and business and financial guru Matt McHale is back again to finish up a conversation we started yesterday about being a Chief Revenue Officer and digging down a little deeper to explore what this role means for a company.  For today's conversation, Matt and Jay are digging into the importance of having people back in the workplace in a post-pandemic world, the reality of living in a time where we've never been more connected as a society via our technology and yet still so isolated, and how the ever-advancing tidal wave of technology will never be able to fully replace the work of a human person, specifically when it comes to the role of CRO.  If you liked yesterday's episode and learning about Chief Revenue Officers, then you are going to love today's conversation with the one and only Matt McHale.

"A great CRO builds a system where revenue is not the outcome of heroics, but the result of a repeatable process." - Ben HorowitzAdvisor, consultant, and business and financial guru Matt McHale is making his triumphant return to the show after far too long of an absence and we intend to make good on the time that we have.  During today's discussion, Matt and Jay are taking a look at what a Chief Revenue Officer is, what that position does, and what it means for their company.  Through the lens of that topic, the discussion also moves into how a CRO can benefit the sales staff so that they have as much time as possible to be out making sales, understanding the dynamics of relationships and being able to look back and see that relationship dynamic with clarity, and the future of business technology with a particular emphasis on AI.  We're going around and around with Matt McHale today and we hope you'll be excited for Part 2 after listening to this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast.
