Eli Portnoy is a serial B2B tech founder focused on solving business problems through customer insight. He’s the CEO of BackEngine, a SaaS platform that uses AI to analyze customer conversations and deliver real-time feedback to teams, such as marketing, product, and customer success.

Eli emphasizes the power of customer insight to drive B2B growth. As CEO of BackEngine, he leverages AI to transform customer conversations into real-time insights for teams like product and marketing. With over 15 years of experience as a serial founder, he’s dedicated to proving the ROI of feedback and integrating it at the core of his ventures.

Eli discusses the challenge of creating a new category, which requires education and mindset shifts. Selling new solutions is tough in a cost-cutting market. He also points out the challenge of explaining ROI — while the concept resonates with founders, quantifying it and convincing executives remains difficult. Additionally, scaling while staying focused is crucial, as there are numerous potential use cases to prioritize for growth.

Eli credits his progress to 5-6 trusted advisors who offer honest feedback. He values surrounding himself with truth-tellers, not just "yes" people, and encourages seeking help early. He believes, "Feedback is the greatest gift anyone can receive, and it applies to all areas of life."

Andrew Hartman, founder and CEO of TimeBoss, is a former COO who turned his personal battle with overwhelm into a solution for leaders and teams. Through group coaching, workshops, and one-on-one sessions, TimeBoss helps them achieve results without burnout.

Andrew highlights his TimeBoss method: treating time as a valuable asset, cutting multitasking, and using weekly planning, prioritizing, and time-blocking for deep work. His system adapts to any role—salespeople block peak hours, strategists guard creative time. Success comes from aligning time with stakeholders and framing yourself as a "conquering hero."

Andrew tackles key issues: Overwhelm is seen as usual but costly. Endless to-do lists spark stress and reactive behavior. Cognitive overload drives quick fixes, not creativity. Poor time management causes lost productivity and work-life imbalance. Relying on tools like ChatGPT won’t fix the problem; only a mindset shift will.

Andrew’s message targets small business owners, leaders, and teams that are overwhelmed and have poor time management skills. Andrew also acknowledges the broader impact—employees, spouses, and partners affected by overwork.
