“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.

In this episode, I dive into the importance of planning, even when uncertainty looms. Drawing from my experience coaching a client and working in retail, I emphasize that having a plan provides direction and makes adapting easier than starting from scratch. I break down three calendar blocking techniques: Specific time blocks (precise task scheduling)Large time blocks (broader time slots with detailed task descriptions)Flexible time blocks (adaptable scheduling around available time)The key is to avoid leaving your calendar blank just because you're waiting on potential commitments. Instead, I recommend proactively mapping out your day, considering potential client meetings or unknown variables. By planning around these uncertainties, you can maintain productivity and feel more in control. I share a practical example of how to approach a day with potential client scheduling, suggesting ways to allocate time effectively. This episode underscores that planning isn't about creating a rigid schedule, but about giving yourself a framework for success!

In Season 25, Episode 10 of the "Building Better Developers with AI" podcast, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche revisit one of their most practical episodes: decluttering your code and digital life. However, this time, they utilize AI tools like ChatGPT to elevate the conversation and provide even more actionable ways to streamline your workflow, sharpen focus, and enhance developer productivity. Why Developers Should Declutter—and Level Up Developer clutter goes far beyond messy code. It creeps into your tabs, your file system, your brain, and your workflow. Rob and Michael explore how revisiting the original topic through the lens of AI created deeper, more structured insights. AI not only confirmed their past advice—it elevated it. As Rob puts it: “Clutter doesn't show up in your IDE, but it absolutely shows up in your performance.” AI helped them reframe the conversation into clear action steps that help you level up your development workflow by decluttering at every level—from code to cognition. Clean Code Is Smart Code: Use AI to Level Up Your Refactoring A central theme of the episode is simple: Great developers delete code. Michael and Rob walk through common bad habits—commented-out code, legacy logic, stale TODOs—and how they quietly accumulate technical debt. They recommend using tools like ESLint, Prettier, or Flake8 to automatically flag issues. More importantly, they encourage developers to make cleanup a weekly routine, not a once-a-year emergency. AI Tip: Utilize ChatGPT to refactor lengthy methods, rename ambiguous variables, or break down complex classes into more manageable components. It's a quick way to make your code easier to read, test, and maintain. Optimize Your Tools: Streamline and Standardize Your Workspace If you want to level up your development workflow truly, decluttering extends beyond the codebase. Your workspace setup—browser tabs, IDE extensions, terminal scripts—can either streamline your productivity or sabotage it. Rob's key practices: Limit browser tabs to 10 or fewer Disable unused plugins and extensions Stick to a consistent folder structure Use shell scripts, makefiles, or Git aliases to speed up routine tasks Michael reinforces the idea with his “kitchen sink” app concept—a reusable codebase that acts as both a portfolio and a best-practices toolkit. Silence the Noise: Declutter Your Developer Brain Clutter isn't just digital—it's cognitive. Rob and Michael emphasize how context-switching kills focus and creativity. To combat this, they recommend: Turning off nonessential notifications (on phone, desktop, and wearables) Using time boxing (e.g., Pomodoro technique) Auditing your calendar weekly Creating interruption-free zones for deep work Pro Tip: Play white noise or ambient focus tracks to drown out distractions and stay locked in. These habits allow you to protect your most important asset as a developer—your attention. Make Decluttering a Weekly Habit and Watch Your Workflow Level Up Don't wait for a meltdown to clean house. Rob and Michael suggest building decluttering directly into your dev rhythm—especially at the end of each sprint or workweek. Their weekly checklist: Archive stale Git branches Delete unused files and TODOs Refactor one file for clarity Restart your system Review your inbox and calendar Even a 15-minute Friday cleanup session can give you a cleaner slate and a sharper mind going into Monday. Bonus: Fewer Tools, More Flow Tool overload is another form of workflow clutter. Michael recommends consolidating everything into one platform—whether it's GitHub, Jira, or Notion. “Let the business be disorganized,” he says. “You bring the order.” Rob echoes this with a challenge: Take one week to migrate everything from your old tools into your primary stack. You'll save time and reduce friction moving forward. Final Thoughts: Use AI to Clean, Simplify, and Level Up Decluttering isn't just about tidiness—it's about creating space to do your best work. And with AI now in your toolkit, you can automate, refactor, and optimize like never before.

Guest: Matthew Freed Guest Bio: I've spent the last 20 years in sales and sales leadership, and I still find it incredibly rewarding. Most of that time has been in manufacturing and distribution, where I've had the opportunity to lead high-performing teams and work closely with customers. I currently lead a team across the Midwest and am passionate about building lasting culture, driving results, and simplifying the complicated. A big part of my leadership style is helping sellers achieve their goals while supporting them in becoming the best versions of themselves. I believe consistent habits lead to consistent outcomes, and I aim to lead with energy, clarity, and accountability. I enjoy helping people grow in their careers while building meaningful, long-term relationships with customers and colleagues. Outside of work, I still love to compete—whether it's on the basketball court or just a backyard game with friends. Most importantly, I enjoy time with my wife and our two daughters. Key Points: Career Journey & Sales Background His dad was in sales and eventually owned a business, which influenced him early. Matthew started with cold calling and door-to-door efforts, learning what real sales was versus the perception. Naturally gravitated toward leadership roles on teams; wanted to shift from individual sales to team success. Moved cities and took a risk to lead a sales team at a manufacturing company, eventually growing in responsibility and geography. He was introduced to Millcraft by a supplier contact and joined over 8 years ago; currently leads sales efforts after transitioning from operational responsibilities. Sales Philosophy & Simplifying Complexity Believes the sales team is his "customers" and supports them by removing obstacles and improving processes. Matthew uses what he calls a "Simplify the Complicated" Approach: · Sales fundamentals (know, like, trust) are still the core, despite evolving technology. · Use data and analytics to validate feelings and drive decisions. · Focus on what matters: simplify systems/processes to let sellers focus on selling. Challenges in Sales Leadership Reps often react emotionally, inventing stories about prospects. Ask clarifying questions, do a fact-finding mission, and use both data and instinct (e.g., the "sleep on it" approach). Helps reps stay grounded by focusing on facts and controllables rather than assumptions. CRM/ERP Adoption Success Successfully implemented a new ERP system that includes a CRM. Tailored the system to serve salespeople and their customers. Positioned CRM is used as a way to better serve customers and make smarter decisions. Gained buy-in by connecting usage to outcomes (e.g., customer satisfaction). Has most of his team (12 people) consistently using the CRM. Team Composition & Hiring A mix of new and long-tenured reps (some with 30–40+ years of experience). Has a team size of 12 sellers. What He Looks for in Hires is resourcefulness, values competitiveness, entrepreneurial spirit, and inquisitiveness. Matthew's screening methods are assignments before interviews, looking for how much effort candidates put into research, a sports background is a strong signal (discipline, competition), and relying heavily on referrals. Team Wins & New Business Growth - 150+ New Accounts Opened Focused efforts in specific industry segments (e.g., beverage, signage, apparel, nonprofits). Leverages repeatable success models: if one nonprofit buys certain items, others likely will too. Emphasizes selling similar things to similar customers vs. reinventing every sale. Segment-focused selling allows for scalable, repeatable growth strategies. Leadership Style & Values Clearly outlines what reps should expect from him and vice versa. Believes in accountability, honesty, and mutual respect. Sees his role as equipping and clearing the path for his team's success. Encourages feedback and builds relationships rooted in trust.

Because sometimes even a decluttered home can feel like… too much.
In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with Dr. A. Jordan Wright, psychologist who brings both professional insight and lived experience to the conversation—having been diagnosed with ADHD in college. Together, we explore the often-overlooked stories of kids who manage to compensate for ADHD symptoms well into adolescence or adulthood, only to receive a diagnosis later in life.We also dive into why early educational settings are crucial for embedding executive functioning supports and how these skills can be proactively taught rather than reactively addressed. Our guest offers a compelling argument for why executive functioning should be considered the new social-emotional learning—essential, foundational, and deeply tied to lifelong success.We also spend a good portion of the episode discussing best practices for assessing executive functioning in a way that is robust and sensitive to diverse learning needs—moving to deeper understanding.Topics Covered:✅ Being diagnosed with ADHD in college and why high-performing kids with ADHD are often missed✅ The case for embedding executive functioning support into early education✅ Executive functioning as the new SEL: What educators need to know✅ Best practices for executive functioning assessment, including surveys, non-standardized methods, and optimal functioning measures. Dr. A. Jordan Wright is the Chief Clinical Officer at Parallel Learning and leading clinical psychologist who specializes in psychological assessment (including learning disabilities and ADHD) and therapy. Dr. Jordan received his Ph.D. from Columbia University. He is on faculty at New York University, where he leads the Clinical/Counseling Psychology PhD program, training doctoral students in psychological assessment and counseling, and he founded and runs the Center for Counseling and Community Wellbeing, the low-fee community mental health training clinic at NYU.Dr. Jordan has authored multiple widely-used books on psychological assessment, including Conducting Psychological Assessment: A Guide for Practitioners (2nd ed.; Wiley, 2020); Essentials of Psychological Tele-Assessment (with Susie Raiford; Wiley, 2021); Essentials of Psychological Assessment Supervision (Wiley, 2019); and, with Gary Groth-Marnat, the sixth edition of the Handbook of Psychological Assessment (Wiley, 2016), the most widely used text in graduate training on assessment. His most recent book is Essentials of Culture in Psychological Assessment (Wiley, 2024), which focuses on areas of diversity, culture, privilege, and oppression in how we evaluate and understand individuals.You can learn more about Parallel Learning's comprehensive services for providers on their website here: https://www.parallellearning.com/You can find Dr. Jordan's free White Papers from Parallel Learning on executive functioning assessment, self-care for clinicians, telehealth best practices, plus much more here: https://www.parallellearning.com/white-papersIf you're a clinician looking for new career opportunities, you can take a look at Parallel Learning's “Careers” page here: https://www.parallellearning.com/careersIn this episode, I mentioned “The School Leader's Guide to Executive Functioning Support”, a 7-day course to help school leaders launch their executive functioning implementation plan.

Hey there, friends! In this episode, I'm diving deep into a critical question: Are you giving up right before your breakthrough? I share a powerful story about the "Three Feet From Gold" narrative, which perfectly illustrates how close we often are to success when we're tempted to quit. Resistance isn't a stop sign - it's actually a signal that you're on the right path and growth is imminent. Drawing from my personal experiences and work with clients in Simplify, I explore how our mindset plays a crucial role in achieving goals. Many of us interpret challenges as reasons to give up, when in reality, they're opportunities for expansion. I use a relatable TikTok example of a 30-day health challenge to demonstrate how transformation takes time and commitment. The key message? Stay persistent. Your breakthrough might be just around the corner. Whether you're working on a business goal, personal development, or any significant challenge, remember: don't surrender when things get tough. You're likely much closer to your goal than you realize. Want more? Check out my free mini-course at simplifywithAmandaB.com/mini-course to supercharge your productivity. Keep pushing forward!

Send us a textThe landscape of cloud security is rapidly evolving as AWS flexes its muscles with a suite of new native security offerings unveiled at AWS re:Inforce. From enhanced threat correlation capabilities in AWS Security Hub to seamless Transit Gateway integration for Network Firewall, these announcements signal Amazon's strategic expansion into territory traditionally dominated by third-party security vendors.We dive deep into the HPE-Juniper acquisition that finally received regulatory approval, but with interesting conditions – including the requirement to license parts of the coveted Mist AI technology. This could potentially open doors for competitors to leverage the same technology that made Juniper so attractive to HPE in the first place, creating a fascinating dynamic in the networking market.The most compelling theme emerging from AWS re:Inforce centers around Amazon's continued investment in native security tooling. New offerings like AWS Shield Network Security Director and IAM Access Analyzer directly challenge third-party CSPM providers, while improvements to existing services reduce the friction and complexity of implementing robust security controls. For organizations already invested in the AWS ecosystem, these integrated solutions offer compelling advantages – but they also raise important questions about vendor lock-in and multi-cloud strategies.Security vendors without a strong moat or differentiated value proposition should be concerned. As cloud service providers continue to enhance their native security capabilities, the pressure on third-party tools will only intensify. This trend follows closely on the heels of Google's acquisition of Wiz, suggesting that cloud security is becoming an increasingly strategic battleground for the major providers.For security professionals navigating these waters, the proliferation of overlapping security services presents both opportunities and challenges. While AWS continues to simplify implementation, the growing catalog of similar-sounding services can create confusion about which tools to use in which scenarios. As we discuss on the podcast, this appears to reflect AWS's organizational structure as much as customer needs – shipping the org chart rather than truly differentiated services.What's your security strategy in this evolving landscape? Are you embracing native cloud security tools or maintaining investments in third-party solutions? The answers may vary widely depending on your organization's cloud adoption strategy, but one thing is clear – the security vendor ecosystem is transforming before our eyes.Purchase Chris and Tim's new book on AWS Cloud Networking: https://www.amazon.com/Certified-Advanced-Networking-Certification-certification/dp/1835080839/ Check out the Fortnightly Cloud Networking Newshttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1fkBWCGwXDUX9OfZ9_MvSVup8tJJzJeqrauaE6VPT2b0/Visit our website and subscribe: https://www.cables2clouds.com/Follow us on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/cables2clouds.comFollow us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@cables2clouds/Follow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cables2cloudsMerch Store: https://store.cables2clouds.com/Join the Discord Study group: https://artofneteng.com/iaatj

Have you ever felt guilty about stepping back from your business commitments, even when you know you're making the right choice for yourself or your family? How do you handle that tension between professional obligations and personal needs? In this heartfelt episode of Simplify to Scale, I open up about a period of personal and professional upheaval following my dad's health crisis and passing. I share how these life events interrupted my routines and forced me to step back from my business, including my long-standing podcast and other commitments. This experience offered unexpected lessons in letting go of guilt, confronting changes, and redefining what matters most, both in business and life. I reflect on the difficult but necessary process of pausing commitments and how it has sparked important conversations with clients and peers. Many entrepreneurs are feeling drawn to make changes in their businesses, whether that's stepping back from a program, reimagining team structures, or shifting away from social media. I talk about the very real feelings of guilt and fear that come with these decisions, while highlighting the importance of giving ourselves permission to evolve and pursue what feels aligned.
