“Anfield is not the same anymore,” commentary legend Clive Tyldesley wrote on Substack in March, because “our relationship with our football heroes has changed…It's now up to them to give us something to get excited about.”But when I asked Liverpool fan and prodigious observer of the game Laurence McKenna whether he agreed with that diagnosis, he offered a different one: It's not the tourist fans making their pilgrimage to Anfield who've dented the famous atmosphere, and it's not necessarily some growing sense among those in attendance that they'll cheer when they're entertained. It's the ticket resale platforms, Laurence said, who are all too willing to fill up the home sections with away fans and change the makeup of the collective Anfield organism.For more on the deep history and changing dynamics of Liverpool's famous stadium, check our Cathedrals feature:https://www.thefootballweekend.com/p/liverpool-anfield-champions-league-night Hosted on Acast.

"This is not only a replacement, it's an improvement." — Jake Jacoby, TELCLOUD In the latest edition of the POTS and Shots podcast series, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, reconnects with Jake Jacoby of TELCLOUD to dive into one of the most essential yet often overlooked parts of communications infrastructure: life safety lines. From elevators and fire panels to emergency call systems, these critical connections—traditionally powered by POTS lines—must not only work but never fail. Jacoby shares how TELCLOUD is helping resellers deliver next-generation POTS line replacements that not only meet but exceed five-nines (99.999%) uptime, thanks to an architecture grounded in multi-layered redundancy: On-premise hardware equipped with triple power redundancy (building power, battery, and backup battery) Connectivity via multiple broadband, cellular (multi-carrier), and satellite options Fully redundant, geographically diverse global data centers “Every single one of our data centers is redundant within itself—and each data center is redundant of each other,” Jacoby explains. While legacy copper lines continue to grow more expensive and unreliable, TELCLOUD's solution is both cost-effective and compliant, making it a natural choice for sectors like public safety, healthcare, and education, where uptime and code compliance are non-negotiable. Resellers can offer monthly pricing, national installation, and a stable, future-ready service—without the scramble when copper lines are finally shut off. Most importantly, Jacoby emphasizes that this is a reseller opportunity with immediate ROI. By empowering an army of partners to educate and implement, TELCLOUD is enabling a seamless and scalable transition to modern infrastructure—helping organizations avoid emergencies before they become disasters. And as always, the episode closes with a tour of tequila. This time: Emerald Spear Blanco, a clean, organic tequila crafted by four Navy SEALs, paying tribute to San Diego's military roots and TELCLOUD's own HQ hometown.

Today we have a three-way conversation between Jimmy Smith, Brian Olson and Jim. They discuss the recent changes in the way Amazon reports sales rank on ASINs and the fairly minimal but still significant change that this will have for some resellers as they use tools like Keepa to make good inventory buying decisions.   They also spend some time talking about how AI might impact the reselling business in the future.   It's a great conversation with a little something for everyone, but it's not the friendliest show for newbies, as some of the topics are fairly acronym-heavy.   Bottom line: the opportunity is only getting better, and the tools/strategies are getting better in the ever-expanding ocean of opportunity that is "Amazon reselling"   This episode also discusses why NOW is the best time to get into the ProvenAmazonCourse.com training because you can LOCK IN your monthly fee before the major price increase happens later this summer and all new students will be paying far more than your low grandfathered rate for this world class and constantly improving training!   Sponsored by SilentJim.com/buyorsell - Our preferred partner for selling your Amazon account or buying a new or seasoned account!   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/muY7HL05Ons   Show note LINKS :   TheProvenConference.com - Our Aug 15-16th virtual event.

“If you're going to do something, do it right. Don't cut corners. Use the right partners.” — Jake Jacoby, TELCLOUD In the latest episode of the POTS and Shots podcast series, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, reconnects with Jake Jacoby, Founder and CEO of TELCLOUD, to unpack one of the most overlooked—but absolutely critical—elements of delivering POTS replacement: billing and compliance. For many MSPs and resellers, the conversation around telecom billing evokes little more than eye rolls. But Jacoby makes the case that billing isn't just admin—it's the core of doing business right. And for those new to telecom, the complexity of telco billing can quickly become a costly trap if not handled properly. Taxes, regulatory compliance, and FCC filings aren't optional—they're mandatory and can be daunting for those unfamiliar with the industry. That's where TELCLOUD's Telco Bill Center comes in. A Turnkey Solution to a Complex Problem Jacoby explains that TELCLOUD acts as the telco of record through its TBC Communications division, handling everything from tax calculation and billing to collections and regulatory filings. For resellers, this translates into a fully managed, co-branded billing platform that requires no upfront investment and ensures complete compliance. “We've created the easy button for resellers,” said Jacoby. “They can remain white-labeled in service delivery, but TELCLOUD takes care of the billing complexity behind the scenes.” Key features of the Telco Bill Center include: FCC and state tax compliance USF contribution management Customer invoicing and payment collection White-label service delivery with co-branded billing Built-in revenue sharing with resellers Protecting the Channel—and the Customer Doug and Jake explore how failing to address compliance can jeopardize the entire reseller-customer relationship. TELCLOUD's billing platform not only ensures tax and regulatory compliance, but also safeguards both the reseller and the end customer from legal and financial risk. Jacoby emphasizes that TELCLOUD's approach aligns with its broader philosophy: enable resellers to sell and scale, without being bogged down in the infrastructure of compliance. And Now for the Shot… As always, the “Shots” portion of the podcast adds a flavorful twist. This time, Jake brings out Arete Añejo, a sipping tequila from El Llano Distillery—one of the oldest family-run distilleries in Tequila, Mexico. With notes of caramel, vanilla, oak, and butterscotch, it's a smooth reminder that, like great telecom billing, craftsmanship matters.

"Internet connectivity is no longer a nice-to-have—it's a have-to-have. Without it, your business stops." — Jake Jacoby, TELCLOUD In the latest episode of the POTS and Shots podcast series from TELCLOUD, Technology Reseller News Publisher Doug Green is joined by Jake Jacoby of TELCLOUD and Christian Hernandez, Customer Success Manager at ATEL, for a conversation that goes beyond POTS replacement—it's about next-generation connectivity and opportunity for resellers. As legacy copper lines continue to disappear, the pressure is on for MSPs, MSSPs, and telecom resellers to find reliable, scalable, and forward-looking solutions. According to Hernandez, that's exactly what ATEL is delivering. A U.S.-based OEM with a global backbone, ATEL has developed rugged 5G routers like the PW550, designed to meet the growing demands of modern connectivity—including the ability to move antennas up to 250 feet away from the telco room to achieve higher signal quality. Jacoby underscored why TELCLOUD partnered with ATEL: “We're done with LTE. 5G is the future. And it's not just about replacing a phone line—it's about building in redundancy and giving businesses the internet resilience they need to operate.” This podcast highlights why 2025 is shaping up to be the year of POTS replacement. TELCLOUD and ATEL are helping resellers modernize customer environments while keeping costs down and reliability up. And with TELCLOUD's full commitment to 5G and flexible outdoor/indoor router deployments, resellers have a real shot at transforming POTS into a growth engine. To celebrate, the crew closed out the episode with a taste of ATEL's own 20-year anniversary aged tequila—a smooth extra añejo with hints of bourbon, coffee, and chocolate. As Jacoby joked, “You can't buy this one on the street… you've got to come visit.” Learn more: ATEL TELCLOUD | 844-900-2270

Ready to turn your reselling side hustle into a full-blown business? In this episode of the Conignment Chats, we're breaking down the exact steps to go from casual thrifter to full-time reseller.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is looking to hire a company to help it mine through data sources including social media, international trade data, blockchain information, property records, and the dark web — the latest example of the agency looking to beef up the tools and platforms it uses in its enforcement operations. In a government procurement posting published late last month, ICE said it was interested in deploying a service that can continuously monitor a million people or entities of interest — and analyze trends for the purpose of “identifying potentially criminal and fraudulent behavior before crime and fraud can materialize,” among other goals. In a request for information for “Data Analytics” shared by ICE's investigations and operations support office in suburban Dallas, the government component outlined a range of requirements that it might seek from a contractor, like staff support, data analytics, and access to proprietary data. As the General Services Administration looks to form direct relationships with IT manufacturers to bring better value to agencies through governmentwide deals under its OneGov strategy, it's going to disrupt a staple of the federal IT acquisition ecosystem: value-added resellers. A significant portion of federal IT contracting traditionally goes through resellers that provide software services on behalf of original equipment manufacturers that often don't have the experience navigating or selling to the federal government. Those resellers, like Carahsoft, CDW-G and Iron Bow, however, specialize in that and provide additional services like integration, customization and support for commercial IT products. Lawrence Hale, assistant commissioner of the Information Technology Category in GSA's Federal Acquisition Service, said Wednesday during a webinar hosted by George Mason University's Baroni Center for Government Contracting that what GSA is trying to do by working directly with the manufacturers is flip that relationship. In going straight to OEMs for IT contracts — as GSA has done now with several vendors like Microsoft, Google, Adobe and Salesforce under its OneGov strategy announced in April — resellers won't be eliminated. Instead, they can still serve as authorized partners or subcontractors to those IT manufacturers, Hale explained, whereas the opposite is often true today.

“You don't have to have a previous relationship with Verizon. We're looking for new partners—especially those who've never sold connectivity before.” — Jen Skinner, Verizon Business In a fast-changing telecom landscape, Verizon and TELCLOUD are teaming up to offer something powerful: a fresh opportunity for resellers and solution providers to break into POTS line replacement and wireless enablement. In this episode of the POTS and Shots series from TELCLOUD, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, sits down with Jake Jacoby of TELCLOUD and special guest Jen Skinner, Associate Director of the Wireless Connectivity Program at Verizon Business. Verizon is expanding its Connectivity Partner Program, offering 4G and 5G fixed wireless access to new and existing partners—no prior Verizon relationship required. This initiative empowers partners, including those with limited telecom backgrounds, to tap into a growing demand for code-compliant and cost-effective POTS line replacements—without the headaches of digging up concrete or rewiring legacy infrastructure. Jake Jacoby underscores how TELCLOUD enables partners to pair Verizon's fixed wireless access with TELCLOUD's hardware to deliver high-reliability, on-premise connectivity. “These are life safety lines,” Jacoby emphasizes. “We need unbreakable connectivity.” Together, TELCLOUD and Verizon provide not just backup internet, but complete primary wireless solutions—even meeting emerging code requirements like elevator video transmission. The conversation also highlights new frontiers for resellers, such as faxing in healthcare and legal sectors where cloud isn't an option, and how TELCLOUD's enablement support fills critical gaps in Verizon's capabilities—making the partnership essential for addressing niche customer needs. And true to the POTS and Shots theme, the episode closes with a shared toast of Código Rosa tequila—aged in Napa Cabernet barrels and selected by Jake for Jen, a fan of bold reds. It's a smooth finish to a bold conversation about growth, opportunity, and innovation in telecom.

“The opportunity is real, the margin is built-in, and the customer already trusts you.” — Jake Jacoby, TELCLOUD In the latest episode of POTS and SHOTS, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, sits down once again with Jake Jacoby, co-founder of TELCLOUD, for a fresh look at one of the hottest—and simplest—ways for resellers to grow revenue in 2025: POTS replacement. This installment of the TELCLOUD series focuses on keeping it simple. Jake walks us through how TELCLOUD 's white label program empowers resellers to launch fully branded POTS replacement services without the headaches—no heavy lifting, no upfront hardware costs, and no telecom experience needed. “Telecom might be complicated,” says Jacoby, “but we make it easy. Resellers can use our platform to deliver complete solutions—connectivity, equipment, install, support, even billing—under their brand.” And for those not ready to fully commit, TELCLOUD offers a tiered entry path. Whether you're ready to become a full reseller or just want to earn commissions through agent partnerships, TELCLOUD has a model to fit your readiness—and your customers' needs. Jacoby explains how TELCLOUD's OPEX model and turnkey setup allow partners to begin earning revenue from day one, enabling anyone from seasoned MSPs to telecom newbies to enter the POTS replacement space with confidence. “Some MSPs don't even do telecom—but they're already in front of elevators, alarm systems, fire panels. They're standing right in front of the POTS opportunity.” And of course, it wouldn't be POTS and SHOTS without tequila. This week's pour: Fortaleza Still Strength Blanco—unaged, uncut, and packed with flavor. “It's strong, spicy, and pure—just like our message today,” says Jacoby.

I've been in e-commerce for nearly a quarter Century. That makes me sound pretty old doesn't it? It's the only income I've earned in that time.   I tried real estate, MLM, affiliate marketing, etc before I got into selling physical products about 20 years ago.   It's been my "go to" model for 20 years now and as of right now, the future has literally NEVER looked brighter for the model we do and teach in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com to all new students.   I've never seen anything that : > is this consistent > is so newbie friendly > offers protective of your initial capital > has a bright stable forecast from every angle > has a ridiculously low cost of entry   ...I could go on.   That's why we teach it! I've taught it to friends and families at my church. I've shown it to aunts, business friends and guys I work out with - this thing works -   We have 100s of success story interviews right on this podcast!   In today's episode I break it down for you and explain why it is that I feel as strongly as I ever have that if you've been waiting for the right time to get started, there has never been more reasons than there are right now to jump in.   We step you through it in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/mUYQ0-4zE6I   Show note LINKS: TheProvenConference.com - Our May 2025 event - plan to join 100s of listeners to this show in Orlando May 29-31st, 2025!

Is right now possibly the greatest time in e-commerce history to become a reseller on Amazon? I think it just might be - and I explain why on today's episode.   Also - we are entering Covid 2.0 (and I'm not talking about the disease). I'm talking about the BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY. The last time we saw conditions like what's about to happen we saw THOUSANDS of sellers make a killing on Amazon as resellers - and the conditions are the same again now! I'll explain what I mean on this episode.   Stick around for the last few minutes of the episode today to hear an update about "The System". The System (aka 3PMercury found at SilentJim.com/thesystem) is the software that completely automated Khang's $3 million replens business with 10,000 ASINs while requiring only a team of only 2 people! Hundreds of users are now using The System to successfully automate their ProvenAmazonCourse.com REPLENS businesses - and you can as well!    The System webinar - Brian Olson did a training and you can check it out on the SilentJim.com/thesystem page for FREE and it's titled "Announcing Walmart integration and importing bulk ASINs!"   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/Xg3j8HSQSTw   Show note LINKS: SilentJim.com/bookacall - Book a FREE call here to discuss our offers including coaching, legends and ProvenAmazonCourse.com course   SilentJim.com/ungating - A great article in our free facebook group about the "ORGANIC" path to ungating   TheProvenConference.com - Our May 2025 event - plan to join 100s of listeners to this show in Orlando May 29-31st, 2025!   If you can't make it to Orlando May 29-31st 2025, plan to attend VIRTUALLY - details at https://theprovenconference.com/livestream25/   SilentSalesMachine.com - Text the word “free” to 507-800-0090 to get a free copy of Jim's latest book in audio about building multiple income streams online (US only) or visit https://silentjim.com/free11   SilentJim.com/thesystem  - (aka as 3P Mercury) - The complete workflow software we created on our team with the help of 200 beta testers.

Today's guest is the CEO of one of the largest software companies serving Amazon sellers. There are 500 employees at threecolts, and Yoda Yee manages all of it!   He has a unique perspective on the momentum and direction of the Amazon selling opportunity. I had a great time discussing with him the current trends, challenges and favorable developments that all sellers should be aware of.   He's a big sponsor of our upcoming TheProvenConference.com event in Orlando as well as one of the few events he attends - that's how much he loves Amazon resellers!   We both agree that we are about to enter an incredible time of opportunity and growth for all Amazon resellers. The same conditions that were in place during covid are now presenting themselves again.   If you're not aware, one of the greatest two-year periods in all of e-commerce happened during covid.   Many sellers in our community made millions. The good news is, there's no disease this time, but the same market conditions are presenting themselves.   If you understand the game the way we explain it today, you will be positioned to do very well the next 2 to 5 years. Enjoy today's conversation with my friend Yoda Yee CEO of threecolts.   If you're ready to get started get into the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course - we will step you through it assuming you know NOTHING.   Watch today's episode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/iokvzvFtKA8   Show note LINKS: ThreeColts.com - Yoda Yee the CEO of threecolts is our guest today Article by Yoda about the beneficial effect of tariffs in Amazon/Walmart reselling : https://www.threecolts.com/blog/trump-tariffs-reshaping-ecommerce/   TheProvenConference.com - Our May 2025 event - plan to join 100s of listeners to this show in Orlando May 29-31st, 2025!
