Meet your Coach

Josh Claflin is a veteran brand and marketing professional with over 25 years of experience. Throughout his career of working in the trenches with entrepreneurs and well-known brands, he has launched, worked with, and built over a hundred businesses in various industries, such as technology, healthcare, fitness, outdoors, hospitality, ministry, finance, and law—witnessing both successes and failures. Josh is a rare breed of creative/designer and marketer; he knows exactly what it takes to create a dynamic brand and marketing program that helps your business stand out in the marketplace. He firmly believes that businesses should not waste their time and money on things that hold them back or hinder their success.

Josh was the first person I met with when I first started my company 11 years ago. I can't put in words how valuable he has been to me and my team over the years. He helped us initially name our products (including him coming up with the name Momentum Weight Loss System, which we eventually sold the trademark to Weight Watchers for $250,000) and helped us land a partnership with the 4th largest US insurance company. He flat-out over-delivers in every way! Without Josh my company would be a shadow of itself. To call him brilliant, valuable and a tremendous resource would be an understatement.

Jonathan RocheCEO, Breakthrough Health

After creating a website for our new fitness business, my husband and I did not feel our messaging was clear. When looking into marketing guidance, it was important to find someone who would not only streamline our message, but give us long term strategies. Josh gave us a simple framework to focus on our customers' pain points and how we solve them, which allowed us to reconstruct our website and gain clarity on steps to take as we move forward with new clients.

Nicole GendelOwner, Sense Movement

Josh has a good understanding of how and why people buy products. Armed with that knowledge, he can help you create a more direct and simplified approach to increase conversion rates.

What guarantees do you offer?

If, for any reason, you’re not satisfied with my coaching after completing the module, I will refund 100% of your money. However, please keep in mind that we require a 45-day completion timeframe.  Any refunds will be voided if you don’t complete the required tasks.

Should I take an online course instead?

Online courses can be a great learning tool. However, they are typically self-paced and lack the personal guidance necessary to determine whether your ideas are viable. As someone who has built and launched hundreds of businesses, I offer my expertise and experience to ensure that your venture starts out on the right track.

What makes your coaching different?

I have personally witnessed the challenges, avoidable mistakes, and obstacles faced by entrepreneurs and new business owners over the last 25 years. That’s why I offer a successful branding and marketing coaching program that will assist you in focusing, saving time, and succeeding in the marketplace.

What if my idea doesn't work?

The cost of this module is pennies compared to the thousands you may lose or gain by venturing down the path of developing a product.

How long does this module take to complete?

During our first coaching session, I will provide you with the necessary tasks to complete. We will also set a date for review and follow-up. Kindly share your findings with me within 20 days. If you require additional time or if unforeseen circumstances arise, I will do my best to work with you and accommodate your needs. However, please note that if you exceed the 45-day completion timeframe or fail to complete the assigned tasks, all refunds will be voided.

How will product-market fit help me?

The product-market fit coaching module lays the groundwork for your business. It is the most important step before investing, developing, and bringing an idea to market. It is also the first step to a more extensive brand development project encompassing positioning, buyer journey, messaging, and creativity. Initiating these marketing activities without a strong product-market fit can lead to a less successful brand and—potential business failure. I have witnessed many business failures (and successes) over the past 25 years, so I aim to assist you in avoiding common mistakes.

Why do I need a brand and marketing coach?

Starting a business can be a daunting task. Unfortunately, statistics show that over 95% of businesses fail within the first year of operation. Most of these failures occur because the idea for the product or service does not fit into any market where the demand is high enough to create a profitable business. That’s where I come in. I help you by coaching you through the product-market fit module. I will take the time to understand your vision and guide you on what you need to succeed—or go back to the drawing board.

Who do you coach?

Coaching can help you achieve success if you are open to learning, willing to put in the necessary effort, and are receptive to feedback. My coaching services cater to results-driven entrepreneurs, startups, business owners and entry-level marketing professionals in a variety of industries, including technology, fitness, healthcare, health and wellness, e-commerce, law, finance, ministry and outdoor activities.
