Hanging with the Megaport & Latitude.sh New York team. Spent time with one of our AI Compute customers based in Manhattan that has absolutely exploded recently. Incredible to see the pace at which some of these companies are scaling right now. Also caught up with an old friend along the way. Now on a flight to DC for ITW. See you there!

Is it your first time going to Cisco Live?! Here are 7 of my top tips: 1. Pack for comfort - If you have a cool neteng t-shirt, now is your time to shine! Most ppl will be in a t-shirt/jeans/polo combo. 2. Choose sessions wisely - It's easy to fill up your calendar with sessions, but don't forget to spend time exploring the World of Solutions. 3. Don't sleep on Meet the Engineer - My customers always tell me that MTE sessions were a highlight of their week, schedule them now! 4. Sign up for parties EARLY - Vendors & partners will hold happy hours that are SO fun, but many have capacity caps and can fill up quick. (like the @Megaport happy hour Monday night!) https://lnkd.in/ej3whzam 5. Backpack essentials - Portable charger, headphones, water bottle, notebook, QR code that directs to your LinkedIn page. 6. Never eat alone - Cisco Live is also about networking (the people kind). The easiest way to meet people is at meals! 7. HAVE FUN- It's a work conference but it's not thaaaat serious. Make sure you take some time to kick back and relax. Hope to see you there!! 🥳 P.S. if you’ve been to Cisco Live, what would you add??

How do you stop direct sales and channel from competing for the same deal? We’ve tripled our GTM team in the past year at Megaport. Here’s how Misha Cetrone + I handle rules of engagement Just two rules - Simple and Non-negotiable. Rule one: We are channel first. The partner or advisor relationship trumps the customer's headquarters address. Wherever the partner who made the intro is, that’s the sales territory it falls under. Rule two: We are neutral on payouts. The direct seller gets paid. The partner gets paid. Nobody should fight over a commission and everyone is incentivised. Here’s how it plays out practically We have a direct seller who owns Texas as their territory. They have a partner relationship in their territory in their book of business who introduces a new customer headquartered in New York. Does the TX rep take it or the NY rep? Texas. The partner owns the relationship, makes the intro and helps support the deal so the partners geography wins. Direct seller gets paid. Partner gets paid. The customer gets one team showing up to help them win. Nothing fancy which is the point. It's effective because it’s simple and clear. And it prioritizes the partners and the customer’s experience over our own. If your channel program needs a flowchart and a monthly call to remind people of ROE, you have channel conflict waiting to happen. Keep it simple. Prioritize the relationships.
