10 - Noah Palansky and Avi Stoller on Revolutionary Marketing, Innovation, Partnerships, AI & More

The Dean Douglas Show

Noah Palansky (LinkedIn) and Avi Stoller (LinkedIn) are two of the three cofounders of TAIV (pronounced "tave") a Winnipeg-based tech start-up company that is revolutionizing the way traditional TV advertising is displayed inside businesses. If you're a business owner (small, medium, or large) that has TVs playing for your customers then this product is perfect for you. TAIV allows businesses to advertise what THEY want during commercial breaks at a fraction of the cost...and that's an understatement. In this episode, we talk about entrepreneurship, marketing, the importance of relationships, personal hardships that both Noah/Avi have faced in the past to get to where they're at, and much more. Here's a brief bio of each: Noah worked in marketing for a software company that helped people with intellectual disabilities. He shares what he found to be the best Return On Investment (ROI) which was not doing the traditional forms of marketing but something else. Noah also had the unfortunate experience of losing his mom to a rare form of cancer while he was only a teenager. This tragic event inspired him to take action and actually make a difference by starting to fundraise money for cancer research. At 14, he started a foundation called Kids Count which aims to provide kids affected by cancer who want to take action by offering them training, tools, and support. To date (and this podcast was recorded in 2019) they've helped roughly 30 kids raise over $800,000 and their goal is to hit $1,000,000. You can also reach out to Noah on LinkedIn to learn more and get involved. Avi wanted to be a doctor out of high school and ventured into a biochemistry degree. After a turn of events (which is better told by him in this episode), he was able to dig himself out of a low place and eventually ended up partnering with Noah where he is currently the Director of Business Development at TAIV. I want to take a moment to thank both Avi and Noah for sharing their stories (both the highs and lows). If you enjoyed the show, please rate and leave a review.
