> If you want to put 1 small-sat in orbit, you don't use Starship

Why not? Unless you need a custom orbit that nobody else is interested in then Starship will be by far the cheapest way to put a small satellite in orbit, as part of a ride-share mission.

Who do I talk to at SpaceX RIGHT NOW to launch my small sat?
Sales? Accounts receivable?
Give me a phone number. Electron and NanoRacks have phone numbers (email, actually.) I can contact them and get info on dates and costs. SpaceX will give me info on Falcon launches but not Starship launches (and they pick the orbit.)
rideshare@spacex.com

I just googled SpaceX rideshare, it was the very first result.

Rideshare doesn't give quotes for starship.
No shit. Does Rocket Lab give quotes for Neutron?
