Justin Stratton took the leap from Iowa to become a coach in New York City! Known as “The Awesomeness Coach”, Justin works with creative leaders across multiple industries while injecting fun into his coaching practice.
BECOMING A COACH
Justin comes from a background in performance arts, marketing, personal branding, social media and business building. It was the experience of helping a fitness company dramatically increase its business that convinced Justin that he wanted to coach people for a living.
BIGGEST OBSTACLE
Educating people about what coaching is all about (some people don’t “get” the whole concept!)
GETTING NEW COACHING CLIENTS
Justin uses social media and referrals to get most of his clients.
BEST COACHING RESOURCES
Justin enjoys listening to audiobooks, and uses the Audible app to do that.
MOST IMPACTFUL BOOKS
“Sell Your Thoughts” by Matt Church
“Energy Leadership: Transforming Your Workplace and Your Life From the Core” by Bruce Schneider
CURRENT COACHING PROJECT
Justin is taking part in a coaching cooperative where a number of coaches, each with different skills, will refer business to one another.
