Joshua Kiernan CEO & Founder | Mosh JD
Growth Strategies for Disrupting Legacy HR Tech
In this episode of Marketing In The Now, host David Reske, CEO of Nowspeed Marketing, talks with Joshua Kiernan, CEO and Founder of Mosh JD, about the evolution of a startup from the “build it and they will come” phase to a sophisticated growth engine. Joshua details his mission to solve the problem of inaccurate and scattered job descriptions, which serve as critical data points for hiring and compensation. He shares transparent lessons on the necessity of “marketing hard” from the beginning and the importance of refining an Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) through frameworks like the Halo Strategy. Joshua also explains how he leveraged AI as an education tool to rapidly master technical SEO and web development, eventually pivoting from a DIY approach to a scalable, partner-led growth model.
