Today’s headline news for Canadian IT solution providers: Kaseya MSP Success ecosystem: Kaseya has launched MSP Success, a unified growth initiative led by EVP of Channel Dan Tomaszewski and backed by a 140-person global team. The ecosystem consolidates three programs: MSP Success Digital Marketing (AI-powered lead generation, website, and SEO/AEO tools in Express and Pro tiers), MSP Success Peer (combining TruMethods Peer and Technology Marketing Toolkit into a single accountability network), and the Kaseya Community hub at MSPsuccess.com. The launch is framed around a finding from Kaseya’s own 2026 State of the MSP Report: 71% of MSPs say acquiring new customers is their single biggest challenge. Zscaler agentic AI security: Zscaler has announced major innovations to its Zero Trust Exchange platform at Zenith Live 2026, including three new capabilities for securing agentic AI: Zscaler AI Broker (securing MCP and A2A agent communications via an integrated Agent Registry), Zscaler Endpoint AI Security (detecting AI-related threats in browsers, plugins, and local tools), and Zscaler AI Access Graph (mapping identities, apps, and data sources in real time, powered by the Symmetry Systems acquisition). The company is positioning this as the industry’s first complete Zero Trust platform for Agentic AI. FlexPoint AI agents for MSPs: FlexPoint launched what it describes as the first AI-powered agents purpose-built for the MSP back-office, built into its AI-native accounts receivable platform. According to FlexPoint, the agents automate billing, collections, payment reconciliation, and client follow-up workflows, and are designed to integrate into existing MSP toolstacks without requiring additional administrative headcount. Kaseya State of the MSP Report context: The 2026 Kaseya State of the MSP Report finds 48% of MSPs rank AI as their top client need, while difficulty hiring skilled technicians has risen from 9% to 16% year over year, compounding the business development challenges MSP Success is designed to address. DTEX behavior intelligence: DTEX Systems has announced a new behavior intelligence tool built specifically for its partner ecosystem, using behavioral science and machine learning to flag anomalies that indicate potential insider risk or accidental data loss events. ConnectSecure Patch 360: ConnectSecure launched Patch 360, a centralized patch management platform purpose-built for MSPs, offering consolidated visibility across endpoints and third-party applications to streamline remediation workflows. Tumeryk and CSA AI Trust Score: Tumeryk has announced a collaboration with the Cloud Security Alliance on the RiskRubric v2 AI risk framework, now covering agentic AI and MCP servers, and has launched its AI Trust Score assessment service in beta. Read Full Transcript Welcome to The Buzz from ChannelBuzz.ca, I’m Robert Dutt, today is Wednesday, June 10, and here’s what’s happening in the channel today. Kaseya yesterday launched MSP Success, a unified growth ecosystem designed to tackle what its own research identifies as the managed service provider community’s single biggest problem. According to Kaseya’s 2026 State of the MSP Report, 71% of MSPs say acquiring new customers is their primary challenge. MSP Success is Kaseya’s answer – a three-pillar initiative that consolidates the company’s existing growth programs under one roof. The first pillar, MSP Success Digital Marketing, is a new platform offering conversion-focused websites, AI-powered search and answer engine optimization, local search visibility, automated lead generation, and access to a dedicated marketing specialist. The platform comes in Express and Pro tiers depending on scale. The second pillar, MSP Success Peer, unifies two programs Kaseya has operated separately until now – TruMethods Peer and Technology Marketing Toolkit – into a single global accountability network with quarterly in-person meetings across North America, EMEA, and APAC. The third pillar is the Kaseya Community hub at MSPsuccess.com, a centralized resource and learning portal. The initiative is led by Dan Tomaszewski, EVP of Channel, supported by a 140-person global team. In a sector where technical excellence is table stakes, this is a signal that Kaseya is investing meaningfully in the business side of running an MSP, not just the tooling. Zscaler yesterday used its Zenith Live 2026 conference in Las Vegas to announce what it describes as the industry’s first complete Zero Trust platform for Agentic AI. The announcement extends Zscaler’s Zero Trust Exchange to address a challenge traditional security tools were not designed to handle: autonomous AI agents that operate at machine speed, create ephemeral identities, and access sensitive data in ways that conventional perimeter and identity-based tools cannot fully see or control. The centerpiece of the announcement is Zscaler AI Broker, which secures agent-to-agent and MCP-based communications through an integrated Agent Registry that governs what each AI agent is permitted to access. Alongside that, Zscaler introduced Endpoint AI Security, targeting threats hidden in browsers, plugins, extensions, and local AI tools that many legacy endpoint products miss. A third new capability, AI Access Graph, powered by Zscaler’s earlier acquisition of Symmetry Systems, maps how identities, applications, and data sources connect across an enterprise to enable real-time policy enforcement and data lineage tracking. For MSSPs building managed AI security practices, this is a significant platform update from one of the key SASE and zero trust providers in the market. FlexPoint yesterday launched what it is positioning as the first AI-powered agents purpose-built for the MSP back-office. The company, which operates an AI-native accounts receivable platform for service providers, says the new agents are designed to automate the financial workflows that consume significant administrative time inside MSP operations – billing, collections, payment reconciliation, and client follow-up. According to FlexPoint, the agents integrate directly into existing MSP toolstacks and are designed to work without requiring dedicated back-office headcount. The core argument from FlexPoint is that MSP revenue growth often stalls not because of a shortage of clients, but because back-office operations don’t scale proportionally. That framing aligns with the theme emerging from Kaseya’s research and this morning’s news – that the constraint on MSP growth is increasingly on the business operations side, not the technical side. In Brief – Kaseya’s announcement follows its own 2026 State of the MSP Report, which also finds that 48% of MSPs rank AI as their top client need and that difficulty hiring skilled technicians has nearly doubled year-over-year. DTEX Systems announces a new behavior intelligence tool built for its partner ecosystem, designed to detect insider risk through behavioral analytics and machine learning anomaly detection. ConnectSecure launches Patch 360, a new patch management platform purpose-built for MSPs, offering a centralized view across endpoints and third-party applications. Tumeryk and the Cloud Security Alliance announce a collaboration on RiskRubric v2, an AI risk assessment framework that now covers agentic AI and MCP servers, with Tumeryk launching its AI Trust Score assessment service as part of the ecosystem. Later today on In The Channel, ESTI Consulting Services‘ Earl Gosick brings a Prairie data center perspective to a conversation about AI infrastructure, cyber resilience, and why the storage conversation is the one Canadian partners should be having right now. And if you haven’t heard it yet, yesterday’s episode features AWS Canada’s Martin Brazonet and CGI’s Dinesh Bhavsar on the launch of the AWS Partner Innovation Hub in Toronto – and why the gap between AI prototype and production is where the real partner opportunity sits. That’s how we’re seeing the headlines today. I’m Robert Dutt for ChannelBuzz.ca, thanks for listening. Have a great day.

TIME Magazine - Enertia® Homes Their Company Slogan - "Your House Should Take Care of You......... Not the Other Way Around!" My spotlight is on Green Living Because of A LOT of Talk this Year About Global Warming & the Eco-System.Enertia Homes recieved an Energy Efficiency Award from the US Department of Energy. Enertia® Homes use an ingenious design, and the science of materials, to heat and cool buildings without fuel or electricity. Fitted with Photovoltaic panels, and a metal seamed roof, homes can be self-reliant for heating, cooling, electricity, water and food. This is a modern Building System, an integrated group of innovations and a construction technique so basic, yet amazing and effective, it has been called a Modern Marvel- A Time Magazine Invention of the Year & Zayed Future Energy Prize, "Innovative Structure of the Century Award", AWPI Century's Best Award. These are not conventional “stick-frame” single-generation houses. The walls are solid wood, and the design life is hundreds of years. Comfort is by design and from a unique structural material, not from a mechanical/ electric compressor or furnace. The roof can generate electricity and capture water. The sun space harvests energy, and in it you can harvest food. Most have a built-in "biosphere" modeled after planet Earths' that draws energy from the sun, and geothermal stability from the ground, creating a temperate climate that buffers the primary living space. Your personal Greenhouse Effect warms your house in winter. Naturally-induced air currents cool it in summer. "When we started 30 years ago the terms Bio-mimicry, Green Building, Carbon Sequestration, and Life-Cycle Analysis did not exist. Enertia® homes pioneered these goals that others are still striving to achieve." ~ Enertia.com © 2026 All Rights Reserved© 2026 BuildingAbundantSuccess!!Join Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBAS
"The original field recording of the botanic gardens in Tallinn, Estonia, reminded me of how much I enjoy visiting these spaces, unusual and exotic flora from around the world in a little capsule… some rare specimens may only exist in these manmade protective bubbles…"For the project I extracted 6 sections of the original audio, between 5 and 25 seconds in length… (No other audio was used). I processed these on my iPad with various granular synthesis apps (Fluss, Tardigrain, Outgrowth, etc.)to dissect, disassemble, rearrange and reconstruct into a new composition."As well as adding further effects; delay, filter, distortion and reverb etc. to create 3 separate granular textured layers which I then combined together to create the final track. Some eq/compression to finalise.“The recursive manipulation; chopping, stretching and distorting of the original audio, creates a sort of dystopian cybernetic jungle, a cacophony of alien and mechanical, yet almost familiar sounds, echo around this synthetic environment…”Botanic garden in Tallinn reimagined by id_23.
In this first part of my conversation with Michael Peters, we explore the difference between religion as an institution and faith as a living experience. Michael argues that Christianity was never meant to become a system of rules, hierarchy and attendance, but a direct encounter with Christ that transforms individuals from the inside out. Together we discuss the nature of spiritual growth, the meaning of community, the tension between political action and personal transformation, the Kingdom of God, the limitations of institutions, and whether true change begins by reforming the world around us or by surrendering ourselves to something greater. Along the way, we dive into consciousness, scripture, church history, spiritual warfare, the crisis of modern Christianity and the search for a faith that remains alive rather than becoming another system.

In this episode of Retail War Games, I'm joined by Jon Klotz, the President of Natural Waterscapes. Jon shares an incredible masterclass on how he took a traditional, boots-on-the-ground environmental construction company and completely pivoted it into a hyper-efficient, 100% controlled direct-to-consumer product powerhouse. We dive deep into why Jon made the high-stakes decision to completely shut down his multi-state construction division to double down entirely on e-commerce and proprietary product development. Jon breaks down a massive macro shift happening right under our feet: the death of traditional Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and the rapid rise of Answer Engine Optimization (AEO). He explains how his team built a cutting-edge web app ecosystem to capture this shift, utilizing third-party watershed and soil data to predict exactly what treatments a customer's pond or lake will need before problems even start—locking in deep customer stickiness and securing margin-heavy sales.

Aidan Meany, Founder and CEO of Found Surface. Aidan is building a programmable knitwear factory in Cleveland that is reimagining what American apparel manufacturing can look likeWhat began for him with learning to sew from his grandmother and making clothes as a teenager has evolved into a much larger ambition — rebuilding the whole infrastructure to make apparel at scale here in the United States. Today, Found Surface develops its own yarn relationships from American farms and spinning partners, uses digital flatbed knitting and rapid assembly to make product close to home, and is building toward a future where brands can design, iterate, and produce without the waste, delay, and opacity of the traditional offshore model.In our conversation, Aidan and I explore the through line from his early fascination with clothing and making, to researching the fragmented state of American manufacturing during college, to building Found Surface first as a kind of supply chain connector and eventually into a serious manufacturing operation in Cleveland. We talk about why he believes this city is uniquely suited for the work, the deeper thesis behind vertical integration and domestic production, how digital knitting changes the economics of speed, customization, and minimum order size, and why overproduction — not just outsourcing — sits at the heart of so much of the apparel industry's dysfunction. We also discuss the partnership between Found Surface, the Cleveland Cavaliers, and the Cleveland Museum of Art, the company's broader sustainability philosophy around natural fibers and proximity, the challenge of building an organization where young people can find meaningful work, and Aidan's belief that Ohio has a real opportunity to help lead the next chapter of American industrial renewal.Aidan is a genuine inspiration and I hope you enjoy our conversation00:00 Inflection Point in Apparel Manufacturing09:48 Found Surface: Origins and Evolution15:20 The Made in America Challenge21:43 Building a Smart Factory: The Future of Production30:30 Sustainability in Apparel: A Dual Approach35:08 Sustainable Fashion and Health Concerns41:29 Cleveland: A Hub for Innovation and Collaboration49:47 Rewriting History: The Future of Manufacturing55:19 Lessons in Leadership and Trust01:02:57 Outro-----LINKS:https://foundsurface.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/aidanmeany-----SPONSOR:Cerity PartnersCerity Partners, a full-service investment and wealth management firm serving high-net-worth individuals, entrepreneurs, and business owners, is proud to sponsor Lay of The Land.

In this episode Rob Fredette interviews Anne Riley about her theory, the Ideasphere, which connects human ideas to biological systems. They explore how ideas evolve, how social media and AI change speech and accountability, and how human societies could learn from nature's collaborative rules to address inequality, governance, and global challenges. Riley discusses her background, the book that inspired her, and the practical implications of choosing ideas that support collective survival rather than short-term profit—calling for clearer rules, accountability, and a renewed focus on collaboration.

This episode rounds up the latest Cardano and Midnight developments in one pass, from Indigo V3 and Cardano Critical Integrations V2 through to the first public steps for Vola Network, the latest NFT marketplace shift after JPG Store's shutdown, and a growing stack of Midnight ecosystem releases. Peter also breaks down why infrastructure, governance, and partner chain tooling matter right now even when they are less visible than headline-grabbing announcements.The second half of the update shifts from ecosystem news to practical builder momentum. Peter shares why the Singapore push around Cardano Summit and TOKEN2049 matters, then walks through several projects he has been building himself, including the Learn Cardano DRep site, a new on-chain activity leaderboard, a bounty platform aimed at bringing fresh liquidity into the ecosystem, and the annual Push-Up Challenge fundraiser for mental health.Key Takeaways:- Indigo V3 expands Cardano DeFi with a new reward model, broader synthetic asset support, and stronger oracle infrastructure through Pyth.- Cardano Critical Integrations V2 focuses on maintaining major integrations and adding Fireblocks support that could matter for institutional and enterprise participation.- Vola Network's public testnet is an early example of how Cardano partner chains can serve specific business and infrastructure use cases.- The closure of JPG Store marks a transition point for Cardano NFTs and pushes users to understand migration paths and new marketplace options.- Midnight is moving from concept to product layer, with MeowDrop, Moonlight, Midnight City, privacy education, and new market experiments all appearing together.- Peter argues that Cardano Summit and TOKEN2049 are ecosystem-level opportunities because they create visibility with enterprise, regulatory, and infrastructure decision makers.- New builder tools such as the DRep portal, leaderboard, and bounty platform are designed to turn governance, on-chain activity, and contributor work into more visible participation.Links & References:- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/XUNLQX- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/Tp3KCS- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/CZyf7G- Intersect Hydra Voting: https://link.learncardano.io/Cn2nX9- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/5Jb2gu- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/AIZAji- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/Rnalwg- ANOlaunch — Launch Your Cardano Token Website | Pepeano: https://link.learncardano.io/QMI2e2- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/LqOXXT- Vola Explorer: https://link.learncardano.io/wniToA- Vola Wallet — Download: https://link.learncardano.io/TbNXZI- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/eMYzks- JPG Store says goodbye: https://link.learncardano.io/4sndu9- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/M9fSYi- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/jUMxS2- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/umzlvx- https://link.learncardano.io/kUAmIL- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/Ng3jsO- How Private Are You? | Midnight Privacy Quiz: https://link.learncardano.io/H3O0ye- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/s0HD1l- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/05qZPI- Ascend Market | Leveraged Event Perpetuals: https://link.learncardano.io/rzsx0D- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/ZNnQY5- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/EAesoJ- Cardano's Big Singapore Push: Why Summit + TOKEN2049 Could Shape the Next Cycle - YouTube: https://link.learncardano.io/t3YPs3- https://link.learncardano.io/Cahuqi- https://link.learncardano.io/GrfcOI- https://link.learncardano.io/Mx5NHZ- Peter Bui · Cardano DRep — Informed Voting, Public Rationales: https://link.learncardano.io/vG2x1z- Leaderboard | Learn Cardano Leaderboard: https://link.learncardano.io/wmcvrG- Cardano Bounties — Earn Stablecoins Building the Ecosystem: https://link.learncardano.io/S4Roix- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/BpxyaE- The Push-Up Challenge - Cardano Community: https://link.learncardano.io/IGzXFOWebsite: https://link.learncardano.io/bQ68RcX/Twitter: https://link.learncardano.io/3a1QtvDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Richard Green is Director of Institutional and Ecosystem at Rootstock Labs, a core contributor to Rootstock, the Bitcoin sidechain that has been quietly running for eight years and now anchors a growing slice of institutional Bitcoin DeFi. Based in London, Green came to crypto through fifteen years in traditional finance — a decade at Bloomberg working with banks and high-frequency trading desks, followed by a stint at Circle building out the European stablecoin business — before going further down the Bitcoin rabbit hole when emerging-market clients made clear they wanted something more than a dollar wrapper. Why you should listen Green's central argument is that the digital gold narrative, while true, is incomplete and increasingly expensive to leave unchallenged. There is roughly $260 billion in Bitcoin sitting idle on corporate treasuries, ETF balance sheets and miner books, paying 10 to 50 basis points a year in custody fees and earning nothing. That, he says, is what pristine collateral looks like when it has nowhere productive to go. Rootstock's pitch is to change the denominator: keep the security model of Bitcoin, but give holders the ability to borrow against their stack, run it through tokenized real-world asset vaults, or deploy it into native yield strategies without selling a single satoshi. The first product out of the new institutional unit, launching in the next month, is a Bitcoin-collateralized loan aimed squarely at miners who are sitting on inventory but still need to pay the power bill. The proof points are no longer theoretical. Mercado Bitcoin recently deployed $20 million of tokenized private credit on Rootstock, with a $100 million target by April, giving Bitcoin holders Brazilian receivables and corporate debt exposure they would otherwise struggle to access. In Japan, where Green sees an unusually crypto-curious institutional base, Rootstock has partnered with Animoca Brands Japan to bring corporate treasury and BTCFi tooling to a market that historically follows rather than leads but is now reportedly seeing 80% of investors plan crypto allocations within the year. Midas, Hyperithm and other ecosystem builders are stacking institutional-grade vaults on top of the chain, with custody handled through the usual professional suspects — Fireblocks, Fordefi and Utila — and Green argues spreading risk across providers and protocols is the obvious lesson from a year of high-profile DeFi hacks. Where the conversation gets provocative is on what Bitcoin actually competes with. Green draws on Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan's framing of Bitcoin as an out-of-the-money call option on becoming a payment instrument, and argues that the real prize is the roughly half of global savings parked in fine art and real estate — illiquid stores of value that Bitcoin, once composable through chains like Rootstock, can simply do better. He is candid about the risks, too: concentration in a handful of ETFs and the dominance of Strategy as the largest non-Satoshi holder are not trivial, even if he thinks the diversification of providers is happening fast enough. His closing critique is one the institutional crowd will recognize — DeFi has an institutional-grade communications problem, and until protocols learn to handle incidents the way Circle handled its de-peg, the larger pools of capital will keep migrating to centralized custody. Stick around for his sketch of what a five-year transition to Bitcoin-backed mortgages and productive retail BTC actually requires.

In this episode, Peter breaks down the updated Cardano DApp Explorer and explains why curated ecosystem directories matter for newcomers, builders, and researchers. He walks through how the Cardano.org apps directory helps people discover live applications, compare activity, and understand what is already available across the ecosystem.The episode also looks at two complementary discovery platforms, Cardano Cube and AdaStack, before shifting into an interview with AdaStack founder Tucker. They discuss ecosystem coverage, multilingual resources, project listing workflows, AI-assisted maintenance, plans for richer project metadata, smart contract audit tracking, and how structured ecosystem data could power future APIs and developer tools.If you want a practical overview of where to discover Cardano applications, how projects can improve visibility, and why better ecosystem data matters, this episode offers a grounded tour without hype or speculation.Key Takeaways:- The updated Cardano.org DApp Explorer gives newcomers a clearer way to discover live applications by category and activity.- Transaction and activity indicators can help users identify which applications appear active, but they should be used as context rather than a guarantee of quality.- Projects can submit their applications to the Cardano.org directory through a documented workflow, improving visibility across the ecosystem.- Cardano Cube and AdaStack provide additional perspectives on the ecosystem and can complement the official directory.- AdaStack is tracking nearly one thousand projects across more than one hundred categories, along with resources in multiple languages.- AdaStack plans to expand its structured data with project history, team details, on-chain references, and smart contract audit information.- AI-assisted monitoring may help ecosystem directories keep links, listings, and project status more up to date over time.- Accessible ecosystem data and APIs can make research, discovery, and builder tooling easier across Cardano.Links & References:- Cardano Apps Directory https://link.learncardano.io/JIJdb3- Add your Application https://link.learncardano.io/W52NlV- CardanoCube https://link.learncardano.io/k9zcxs- Adastack https://link.learncardano.io/gdYxSdWebsite: https://learncardano.ioX/Twitter: https://x.com/astroboysoupDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

From a chance meeting on a plane to recording a podcast episode, this week Conrad interviews wildlife biologist Adam Hensley. Adam shares how a childhood love for fishing evolved into a career studying fish, insects, and entire ecosystems—highlighting the power of curiosity, asking questions, and embracing a non-linear path. From switching out of criminal justice to discovering aquatic ecology, his story shows how unexpected pivots can lead to meaningful work. The conversation explores Adam's graduate research in Alaska, where he studied Dolly Varden in extreme Arctic environments. With constant water temperatures but dramatic seasonal light changes, his work reveals how fish adapt to survive harsh winters—showing just how interconnected ecosystems truly are. Along the way, Adam shares unforgettable field experiences—from helicopter access to remote tundra streams to observing wildlife like wolverines and massive fish populations—bringing listeners into the reality of field-based science. The episode wraps with reflections on career growth, resilience through rejection, and the importance of staying open to opportunities. The biggest takeaway: everything is connected—whether in nature, science, or life—and following curiosity can lead you exactly where you're meant to be. #dollyvarden #arctic #salmonid #aquaticmacroinvertebrates #flyfishing Instagram:adamchensley Email: achensley@crimson.ua.edu Get in touch with us!

On this week's show we take our first look at the new batch of Ikea smart home products that support matter. Are they worth the money? We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: TCL RGB Mini-LED TV with up to 9,000 nits brightness now available AMC Wants To Start Airing Sports Programming to Fight Cord Cutting LG ELECTRONICS LAUNCHES 2026 QNED EVO MINI LED TV LINEUP Will micro-LED ever really replace OLED? Other: NBC Releases First Look at David Boreanaz in The Rockford Files Reboot Are the Low Cost Matter Compatible Devices From Ikea Worth It? On this week's show we take our first look at the new batch of Ikea smart home products that support matter. If you are in the Amazon, Apple, Google, Homey or Samsung ecosystem you can connect these devices directly to your home via matter. These are some of the lowest cost devices we have seen and they come from a reputable vendor. So how do they work? To answer that, we put the Grillplats plug and two variations of the Bilresa Remote Control (Dual Button and Scroll Wheel) through a two week test. Here is what we found. GRILLPLATS Plug ($7.99 at Ikea) What can we say? This is a solidly built matter plug for $8 that never misses. What we like: Extremely affordable — one of the cheapest Matter-over-Thread smart plugs available. Energy monitoring — tracks power usage, voltage, current, and accumulated energy (great for automations like "notify when washer finishes"). Acts as a Thread repeater — helps strengthen and extend your smart home mesh network. Compact & sturdy design with manual on/off button. Easy setup via QR code. Fast, responsive control. What you should consider: Power limits — max 300W for motor loads (e.g., not ideal for fridges, dryers, or high-inductive appliances). Energy reporting through matter is not fully supported by all automation ecosystems. . Can be physically wide and block adjacent outlets on some power strips. Excellent value if you already have a Thread network and mainly need basic on/off control. It's a strong budget pick, but not perfect for heavy appliances. BILRESA remote control kit ($14.99 at Ikea) These dual-button remotes make it much easier to control your smart products. You can use them to turn devices on and off, dim lights, change colors, or activate groups and preset scenes. And at about $5 a piece they are the best value remote out there! What we like: extremely cheap — one of the most affordable Matter-over-Thread smart remotes available. Simple & intuitive — two clearly different buttons (with indentations) for quick on/off, scenes, dimming, or groups. Supports single press, double press, and long press (up to 6 actions total). Battery powered (2x AAA) — long life and easy to replace. Can be placed anywhere (magnetic back + adhesive metal plate for wall mounting). Compact and unobtrusive design — looks like a simple light switch on the wall. Responsive! Almost no delay from button push to device/scene activation. What you should consider: Setup can be finicky — pairing takes too long and fails requiring multiple attempts.Once device in the tree pack would not pair and said it was already in a home. Even a factory reset (done multiple times) would not fix this issue. After a call with Ikea Tech Support. A new three pack was sent out. Limited feedback — a small status LED doesn't give much information. Fantastic budget remote if you want simple physical control for lights and scenes in a Matter smart home. Just be aware that two button actions are required to turn a light on and off. So if you are using it to control lights you may make a single press on the larger button turn a lamp on and a single press on the smaller button turn the lamp off. Hitting the first button does not toggle the state of the controlled device. BILRESA remote control with Scroll Wheel ($9.99 at Ikea) Use to turn smart products on/off, dim and change the color of light sources, or operate a group or preset scenes. With this controller you get three sets of buttons which are indicated by a small LED. Each set has a single, double, and long press. In addition there is a scroll wheel that is supposed to dim lights. The dimmer did not work with homekit over matter but even if it did the action is difficult to uses since the wheel is slick and slippery. Moving between groups is cumbersome as well. You have to wake up the device to see which group you are currently on. Or just dive in and see what happens! What we like: Cheap! Versatile controls — Scroll wheel for dimming/brightness or color temp/RGB adjustments (if you can get the wheel to scroll). Up to 9 programmable inputs. Compact and portable — Small (about 2.75" x 2" x 1"), easy to hold or mount on walls/fridges. What you should consider: Scroll wheel feel and usability issues — Slippery, hard to rotate (especially on a table), wobbly, or lacking grip/texture. Ecosystem limitations — Wheel functionality is poorly supported in some platforms like Apple HomeKit and Google Home. Setup and documentation frustrations — Pairing can be tricky Great concept and price but we recommend waiting for firmware fixes and broader Matter support. Consider the simpler dual-button BILRESA version.

You got the title. You got the team. You're putting in the hours. So why does it feel like you're running hard and getting nowhere? Here's what nobody told you when they handed you that promotion: your success as a leader isn't about what you know or what you can do anymore. It's about who's in your corner. And if you're like most new managers, you've been so focused on proving yourself that you've left every relationship around you on the table. In this episode, James Rosseau Sr. walks you through the Evolve Your Ecosystem framework — the same tool he's used with leaders across healthcare, financial services, and tech to help them stop navigating blind. You'll learn: Why the listening tour you skipped in your first 90 days is costing you more than you realize How to map every key relationship in your professional world and rate it red, amber, or green The three questions to bring into every stakeholder conversation Why a thin relationship cannot carry the weight of your work, even when you're delivering The exact move James used at LegalShield before announcing a single strategic decision — the one that helped drive years of double-digit growth and contributed to a $1.2 billion private equity sale If you've ever felt like you're babysitting, firefighting, and faking your way through your first year of leadership, this episode gives you something to actually do this week. Draw the map. Rate the relationships. Pick one red conversation to schedule. That's where the work begins. Because the leader you wish you always had didn't just do great work. They built great relationships. And that's the leader you're becoming.

If you've ever said "I feel like I have all the pieces but something still isn't clicking" — this episode is going to reframe everything.In Part 2 of the Six-Figure Quarter series, I'm introducing you to the lens I use to look at every single business I work with: the ecosystem model. Once you see your business this way, you can't unsee it. And more importantly, you'll finally be able to identify why things feel scattered, why revenue feels inconsistent, and why working harder isn't moving the needle.This isn't about finding the missing tactic. It's about understanding the missing architecture — and how to build a business where every single piece is doing its job to move someone toward your anchor offer, without you being the glue holding it all together.I also walk through the exact process I take CEO Mastermind clients through when we build out their ecosystem design — including a real example from a client I just onboarded this week.Key Takeaways:What a healthy business ecosystem actually looks like — and the sneaky ways an unhealthy one bleeds your energy before you even noticeWhy the symptom you're trying to fix is almost never the real problem (and where to actually look)What an anchor offer is, why you need one, and how everything else in your business should relate to itThe difference between a business with rhythm and one that's just a collection of disconnected ideas and offersHow the client journey actually works — and what happens when your ecosystem is cohesive vs. when people are left wanderingLinks:The CEO Mastermind® — where we build your ecosystem design together: [LINK]Run your entire business on one platform.
