Kari\u2019s Law went into effect only four days after this panel on February 16, 2020, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skyswitch.com\/skyswitch-announces-upgrade-to-support-karis-law-e911-requirements\/\">we announced a necessary SkySwitch upgrade<\/a> in support of new E911 requirements.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/skyswitch.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/IMG_4141-3-scaled-ol695chs19e6tnofay423ya7aq0zfl4j9u1667lwug.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10311\" title=\"IMG_4141-3\" srcset=\"https:\/\/skyswitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/IMG_4141-3-scaled-ol695chs19e6tnofay423ya7aq0zfl4j9u1667lwug.jpg 500w, https:\/\/skyswitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/IMG_4141-3-scaled-ol695chs19e6tnofay423ya7aq0zfl4j9u1667lwug-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/skyswitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/IMG_4141-3-scaled-ol695chs19e6tnofay423ya7aq0zfl4j9u1667lwug-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Left to right: Harlan Hamlin of SkySwitch, Justin Nelson of Voyant, Kevin Selkowitz of Netsapiens and Mary A.

Interestingly, SkySwitch resellers in the audience were actively participating and offering their own words of advice to those who were new to reselling telecom. Moments like those truly showcased how strong the #SkySwitchCommunity is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Friday, 2\/14<\/b> &#8211; ITEXPO day 4 wrapped up with another great day of networking in the expo hall. Along with this, our CMO, Andy Abramson, participated on a panel on \u201cModern Marketing for MSPs.\u201d His panel explained how to boost your current marketing strategy by utilizing current marketing, advertising and public relations trends and resources. If you were circulating the #TECHSUPERSHOW, you probably also had the chance to see Andy moderating multiple sessions throughout the conference.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/skyswitch.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/IMG_4237-scaled-olnf8x4q384c3s0yqt91scfiv8us3xbuww9m5cz91k.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10312\" title=\"IMG_4237\" srcset=\"https:\/\/skyswitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/IMG_4237-scaled-olnf8x4q384c3s0yqt91scfiv8us3xbuww9m5cz91k.jpg 500w, https:\/\/skyswitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/IMG_4237-scaled-olnf8x4q384c3s0yqt91scfiv8us3xbuww9m5cz91k-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/skyswitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/IMG_4237-scaled-olnf8x4q384c3s0yqt91scfiv8us3xbuww9m5cz91k-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Modern Marketing for MSPs panel at ITEXPO with Maddy Martin, Head of Growth Education at Smith.ai and Andy Abramson, CMO at SkySwitch.
