Such a wealth of knowledge! 🧠

This is one of the most insightful podcasts that I have ever come across! Elias does such a great job of sharing his wisdom and I love how he leads meaningful conversations with guests who bring so much experience to the table. Highly recommend checking this show out - you won’t be disappointed!

Well done and insightful

I'm a new listener and have really enjoyed listening to the Best in Saas on my daily hike. Elias is incredibly intuitive in how he engages his stellar guests. He makes it look easy but I know it is anything but easy to pull it off so consistently. I am in sales and coach sales people and founders. I've learned a a bunch already especially from the episodes that touch upon sales and startup situations that I have yet to encounter myself but surely will. Keep it up Elias!
