Hammond tells MSPs to pick a vertical and one problem

Hammond tells MSPs to pick a vertical and one problem

N-able Head Nerd Stefanie Hammond lays out a 10-step growth playbook for MSPs that have built spare capacity, starting with one industry and one problem and a 100-account target list. She argues MSPs have a sales problem more than a lead problem, and points to her go-to-market accelerator program, with classes starting in November.

  • 01Hammond's playbook starts with a written revenue and client-count target, then one industry and one problem, then a 100-account list split 20, 30 and 50, before any campaign spend.
  • 02Hammond says MSPs have a sales problem more than a lead problem: find where proposals stall and whether the right decision makers are in the room before paying for more leads.
  • 03The Dream 100 name traces to a case Chet Holmes International describes: 167 of 2,200 newspaper advertisers bought 95% of the ads, and the first close took five months of mail and calls.

Google Just Put AI Chips in Orbit. The Real Story Is the Power Bill on the Ground.

Google Just Put AI Chips in Orbit. The Real Story Is the Power Bill on the Ground.

Google launched a prototype satellite carrying four Trillium TPUs to test whether the chips can survive launch and operate under orbital radiation and heat constraints, driven by power limits on the ground. It is not a data center but a survival test for durability, radiation resistance, and heat dissipation, signaling that energy availability—not chips or models—is becoming the limiting factor for AI infrastructure growth.

  • 01Project Suncatcher's first satellite is a survival test for hardware durability, not operational compute capacity for actual workloads
  • 02Orbital solar can deliver up to 8x more power, and Google research suggests launch costs could drop below $200/kg by the mid-2030s, bringing space build costs closer to some Earth equivalents.
