Insightful COO Ryan Fyfe recently sat down with the host of The SaaS Podcast, Omer Khan, to talk about his decade-plus journey in the tech world.
In a wide-ranging interview, Ryan went way back to discuss his entrepreneurial roots, recalling the early days of his previous company Humanity.com, as well as delving into Insightful’s rapid rise.
Here are just some of the things you’ll learn when you tune in…
- The struggles of securing paying customers as a startup (even when people say they love your product)
- The importance of co-founder relationships (and how to exit a dysfunctional partnership)
- The strategies behind growing his previous company to over $12M ARR, 150 employees, and 40,000 customers
- Insightful’s origins, future plans, and what Ryan is doing differently as a company leader second time around
- How Insightful takes a different approach to employee monitoring and time tracking
Plus, much more…
