Welcome to the Scale with Strive podcast, the place where you come to listen to some of the world’s most influential leaders of the SaaS industry. 🚀
I am your host, Adam Richardson and on today’s episode, I am excited to welcome Dave Joshua, Founder at Scale Gen AI, a Consultancy which helps Generative AI startups and creators move beyond founder-led growth with lean, AI-powered Go-To-Market (GTM) strategies.
Dave has spent 20+ years leading GTM, marketing, sales, and revenue strategy for AI companies, including Stability AI and other generative AI pioneers. His expertise covers, amongst other things:

✅ AI-Native GTM – Integrating AI-driven sales, marketing, and customer success

✅ Enterprise Monetization – API, platform, and direct sales strategies

✅ D2C/B2C Growth – Scaling acquisition, prosumer/consumer segmentation, and retention

✅ Strategic Hiring – Building lean, high-impact GTM teams that leverage AI

✅ Exit Strategy – Positioning for IPO, acquisition, or sustainable growth

Today, we focus in on all things Gen AI and some of my key takeaways from our conversation were:
💡The growth of the Gen AI space in the last three years and where investment has concentrated.
💡 GTM Strategies for Gen AI start-ups - including Proof of Concept, identifying ICP, product simplification and Customer Acquisition Costs.
💡 The future of the Gen AI space.
Let’s Dive in!
