TEAM NEWBLOOD Dossier 1 is now complete…and hotlinked!









So there you have it!
The Dream Team of all dream teams. Anyone who wants to more closely engage with the community should start with one, two, or three of these folks.
Aw heck, go ahead and meet ‘em all while you’re at it!
And if anyone wonders why they weren’t included in this SuperGroup To End All SuperGroups…
I made my selections based on one single, solitary criteria…
Friendliness to New Faces
I don’t think anyone can argue with my selections based on that.

As part of the Funcave’s continuing series on the TEAM NEWBLOOD challenge, here is the final community resource on our list…
=== BEGIN TRANSMIT ===
NANCY WILLIAMS

Whereabouts: http://www.mobilizesmb.com and http://www.conference2007.sbsmigration.com/
Known Aliases: “The Heart & Soul,” Nance, TANW.
Summary: One of the sweetest people you will ever meet in your life. If you want to know where the best time is going to be at any given moment, go find Nancy. Her standing O in NOLA was long overdue, and literally brought tears to most eyes, including mine. She’s been an instrumental resource for vendors wanting to better engage with the SMB community. Those that take her sage advice reap immense rewards. Those that don’t…well, it’s not a pretty sight

As part of the Funcave’s continuing series on the TEAM NEWBLOOD challenge, here is the next community resource on our list…
=== BEGIN TRANSMIT ===
ROBIN DICKINSON & RACHEL GILLILAND

Whereabouts: http://www.levelplatforms.com and http://www.msppartners.com
Known Aliases: None, because they don’t need any. They aren’t afraid of your puny ass.
Summary: Rarely seen apart, Robin & Rachel remain one of the top super teams in SMB, thanks to their work for the counter-terrorism organization known as LPI, and LPI’s elite tactics consortium codenamed MSPPARTNERS. This duo has been able to infiltrate numerous official SMB functions and worked proactively to counteract disruptive forces before they became a primary hazard. Even when their intel regarding a potentially explosive situation is sketchy, or should, by all rights, have come under the purview and supervision of another organization entirely, they manage to keep us all safe from harm.

=== BEGIN TRANSMIT ===
AMY LUBY

Whereabouts: http://www.mobitech.biz and http://www.mobilizesmb.com
Known Aliases: Mastermind, altho certain intelligence points to the codename STORM
Summary: None of our agents assigned to deep cover in her organization has ever lasted more than a few days. Reportedly amassing a gigantic army in preparation for something known to us only as “WorldDom 20xx.” Approach with extreme caution. Frank, to the point, and awesome. Amy has literally saved my bacon more times than I can count, and waaaay more than I can ever repay. And I’d bet more than 80% of the community can say the same thing, based on the awesome information sharing initiatives she herself has driven. If I absolutely had to be the minion of a world-conqueror, she would be the one I would choose.
