Litzman is widely recognized for his leadership at Brandwise and his enduring relationships within the gift, home, and toy sectors. His return to MarketTime, initially to lead the Customer Advisory Board, highlighted his unique ability to foster open communication and build strong partnerships with customers.
“I am honored and excited to step into the role of CEO at MarketTime,” Litzman said. “Having recently re-engaged with the company and its valued customers through the Customer Advisory Board, I’ve seen firsthand the incredible potential we have to deliver impactful solutions. My focus will be on strengthening our commitment to our customers, leveraging their insights to drive product innovation, and ensuring MarketTime continues to be the premier B2B commerce platform for their needs. We are dedicated to building on our strong foundation and working closely with our customers to achieve mutual success.”
MarketTime’s strong and experienced leadership team, including Terri Harwood (COO), Jonathan Striker (CFO), and Pete Mueller (CTO), remains deeply committed to the company’s mission and to supporting the continued success of its customers. Their collective leadership, combined with Litzman’s guidance, ensures stability and continued progress as MarketTime enters this new phase.
