“We make it so that TV commercials are as effective as a Facebook ad,” is how Noah Palanksy describes the mission of his AI company Taiv. Having a drink at a bar one night, he watched as the TV played an ad for another bar down the street, and realized the potential for an establishment to promote itself on its own screen. Later, this idea evolved so that companies can now place their ads on the screens in bars, or anywhere where people congregate, to promote their business. From there, Taiv tracks where attending patrons then click, visit, or make purchases, after they leave the establishment. About a year and a half into bootstrapping their company, Noah and his co-founders were accepted into the prestigious Y Combinator program, which helps startups companies to successfully launch. All of the priceless information they learned there would soon be put to the test as they worked through the challenge of selling a socially driven concept, right as the world went into lockdown. On this episode, learn why it's so important to have hobbies, the difference between being cheap and treating every dollar like it's your last. Quotes: “To get enough funding to hire a few developers without giving up too much of the company is very challenging.”(8:50-8:59 | Noah) “Build something that people want, and actually figure out if you're providing value to people and don't just build a thing because it's cool.” (14:16-14:21 | Noah) “There's a million things you could spend money on and most of them are stupid.” (16:27-16:30 | Noah) “The hardest part of my job right now is balancing between trying to build new products and iterate, trying to make the thing we have better, and how to get users using the thing we already have.” (41:32-41:45 | Noah) “I think we're going through a transitionary period with advertising…so it's a good time to be doing something in this space.”(21:42-22:28 | Noah) Connect with Brendan Dell: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brendandell/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BrendanDell Instagram: @thebrendandellTikTok: @brendandell39 Buy a copy of Brendan's Book, The 12 Immutable Laws of High-Impact Messaging: https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780578210926 Connect with Noah Palansky :Website: taiv.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/taivbox/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/noahpalansky/ Check out Noah's top 3 recommended books:The Hard Thing About Hard Things by Ben Horowitz: https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780062273208 Never Split the Difference by Chris Voss: https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780062407801 Blitzscaling by Reid Hoffman and Chris Yeh: https://www.indiebound.org/book/9781524761417 Please don't forget to rate, comment, and subscribe to Billion Dollar Tech on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts!

Giving us up to date news from Las Vegas with 10 weeks to go before the start of the WSOP season, Seth Palansky answers questions on some of the possible scenarios for the WSOP this year, following the impact of the global measures to tackle the coronavirus. Then we bring you a strat-chat hand from the WSOP Main Event last year featuring Ensan and Su, 2 huge stacks clashing in an ICM intense spot.
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 towards 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 high's and low's). Shownotes: www.simpletounderstand.com

When it comes to IoT security, legal action is "a matter of when not if." That's according to Ijay Palansky, an attorney in Armstrong Teasdale's Litigation practice group, represented plaintiffs and class members who alleged in the infamous 2015 Jeep hacking class-action lawsuit that the 3G “infotainment” center in those cars were vulnerable to hacking. Threatpost talked to Palansky about impending IoT legal issues and what to expect.
