Maja Voje: AI Upends GTM — Where Humans Still Win | Glasp Talk #61
How is AI rewriting go-to-market playbooks—and where do humans still have the edge?
In the 61st episode of Glasp Talk, we sit down with Maja Voje, a bestselling author and one of the world’s leading go-to-market strategists. Maja has helped over 10,000 companies develop repeatable GTM systems, worked with giants like Tesla, IBM, and Microsoft, and authored the Amazon bestseller Go-To-Market Strategist. She also founded Growth Lab, where she builds AI-powered GTM systems and has trained over 8,500 professionals worldwide.
In this conversation, we cover:
- The three stages every startup must navigate: problem-solution fit, product-market fit, and GTM + scaling
- How AI is reshaping go-to-market motions—from inbound and outbound to paid, community, ABM, and PLG
- The new reality of Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and how startups can win traffic in the AI-first era
- Why distribution is now “the queen” and how audience-first strategies are reshaping startup growth
- Where human marketers still matter most: taste-making, stakeholder management, and trust-building
If you’re a founder, marketer, or growth leader navigating the AI era, this episode offers practical frameworks and hard-earned insights on building GTM strategies that actually work today.
