AS FEATURED IN

If you know you’re one of the best coaches at what you do…

If you know your product, service, and coaching really works…

If you’ve built the foundations of a coaching business, have stalled, and don’t know how to keep growing…

And when you try to market yourself, build systems, and get MORE clients… you get totally lost and confused about what “works”

Or maybe you feel like you have to give your services away for cheap… because you want to help people so much or you think that’s how you “stand out” in the industry

The world needs coaches, REAL coaches, now more than ever… but most coaches are challenged to get their business to that “next level”

Why? Because they don’t know what “level” they’re at and can’t focus or execute on what matters most for their business - so they spend time on the wrong things and plateau

The Strong Coach Academy builds the best coaches in the world with businesses to match

Specifically designed to meet them at the “level” their business is at, it gives them only what they need to build and grow

THE ACADEMY has EVERYTHING you need to build and grow your coaching business - starting this week

Exactly like there are “human stages of development” we all get to the go through in life, there are essential “business stages of development” a coaching business has to go through…

…skip a stage or fail to give the business what it needs in that specific stage and you’ll create a business that stagnates and is challenged to grow smoothly and effectively

We call these the “5 Stages of Business Development”

$0-5k/mo: get 10 clients, fast - create a proof of concept; craft simple, clear, compelling messaging that attracts your ideal clients; and a conversational ethical sales system that works
$5-15k/mo: automate your growth - master your offer, create marketing assets like landing pages and websites, start marketing, and automate this side of the business for easy growth
$15-30k/mo: create support - build a support team around you where you need it most. A second coach? A setter? A VA? Where do you most need support to set you up for Phase 4…
$30-50k/mo: find your flow - work only in your unique zone of genius. A marketing wizard? Good, spend your time there. Master coach? Awesome, COACH! Love the finances and sales? Badass, spend your time and energy there
$50k+/mo: amplify your impact - add GAS to the fire by bringing in paid advertising, etc, and turn the crank to watch what happens

If you’re like most coaches, you’re in stage 2 and are trying to do what’s in stages 3, 4, or 5 OR you completely missed stage 1 and don’t have a clear, compelling message for effective marketing

Identifying where you are with complete honesty is the first step…

…getting the right coaching, resources, and support for your business' individual needs is essential

AND THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT THE ACADEMY DOES

What Coaches Are Saying

MEET YOUR COACHES

Mike Bledsoe, The CEO of The Strong Coach

Mike has close to two decades of experience inside the health, fitness, and coaching business industry; and an abundance of successes to his name. A Navy Vet, Mike left to enter college and make a name for himself as a coach. He opened the first-ever CrossFit Box in Memphis and slept inside the gym for 8 months because he wasn’t making enough money to rent an apartment

In 2012, he began the Barbell Shrugged podcast with Doug and Chris - and as they say, the rest is history. Over time, Mike built Shrugged, Barbell Business, Training Camp for the Soul, and multiple other coaching businesses into leaders inside the industry. After working and connecting with thought leaders and world-class coaches and teachers inside the industry, Mike noticed a gap in the market where the industry was letting down coaches all over the world…

...and in 2018, on a sabbatical, he began The Strong Coach. Since then, hundreds of coaches lives have been changed thanks to The Strong Coach, and some of TSC Graduates, like Leo Savage, Mike Salemi, Josh Hash, Lindsay Crowell and more, are leading the industry today.

With a mantra of “as soon as it’s not fun, stop” - you’ll find Mike traveling the world, biohacking, and laughing his ass off when he’s around the people he loves.

Dr. Matt Shiver, The COO/CMO of The Strong Coach

Matt graduated from Duke's Physical Therapy Program in 2019 and quickly realized that the medical system was not set up for optimizing health.

He developed the skill for creating systems & marketing strategies that led to more leads, increased sales, and generating passive income.

Inside The Strong Coach he heads up marketing strategies, runs our Facebook Ads, and helps the business generate income as the team sleeps.

Outside of the Strong Coach, he loves to travel with his dog Lily and explore the world.

Jarrod Davis (a.k.a The Captain)

Jarrod (a.k.a The Captain) is larger than life (*seriously, he’s a giant in stature, heart and love). For as long as he can remember he’s been called to be a coach - and he’s experienced coaching everything from air squats and pushups to high ticket offers. He’s been in the coaching game for 12+ years and has built and supported coaches to expand their thinking and their lives. After taking over a small gym in 2016 and expanding it to over $40k a month, he found himself wanting to level up and support coaches to do that same.

Inside The Strong Coach he has the perfect container to do just that, serve coaches looking for Freedom. When he’s not coaching you’ll find his shredding bowls with his skateboard and spending time with his kids + family and enjoying life to its fullest

BenJoy Walker

BenJoy is like a rare animal… incredibly hard to find as he’s created a life where he has total freedom to live wherever his heart calls him. A professional actor in a past life (*ask him to sing and dance “Pony” by Genuine for you…), BenJoy soon realised that he wasn’t living his dream - he was living someone else's. And so he dropped everything and began coaching Steel Mace in NYC and joined the Steel Mace Flow Education Team to teach certifications

After graduating from The Strong Coach, BenJoy realized it was the most inspirational work he’d ever done, found his true passion and made the commitment to lead as many coaches as he could to do the same

In his spare time you’ll find BenJoy summiting mountains, swimming in glacial rivers and leading a charge to #AbolishTimezones and Coach Anywhere in the World with ease - all whilst keep the fun level at a 13/10

World-Class Coaches Leading Coaches to Become Industry Leaders…
…Just One Of The Many Things That Makes THE STRONG COACH Different To Everything And Everyone Else You’ve Ever Seen…

...Our Coaches are real people & career coaches with decades of experience in the coaching world plus Psycho-Emotional Training to support you with psychological blocks, energy cultivation, and more

The Academy isn’t just about information, it’s about integration as well. The level of coaching provided by The Strong Coach is unfounded as you’ll be supported to work through your life + business challenges and increase your focus, vision, confidence, and accountability

How Would You Like These Results?

I wanted to grow my coaching business but had absolutely no idea how. I had this notion that all of the certs would have made me successful. So I was frustrated about that not being the case. I felt lost. [Working with The Strong Coach] I started to actually see the processes of the business line up and began to actually get paid for helping people. [Now] I wake up every day on a mission and I get to live my perfect day.

Blake Conner

The Wholesome Habit Project

Not knowing where to prioritize was the biggest frustration…[Now] I’m launching a new product in a quarter of the time and it’s already selling before it’s even out.

Mike Salemi

World Champion Trainer, Coach and Creator of the Kettlebell Lifestyle

I had researched a lot of suggestions on how to become an online coach and was in information overload. This program supported me in creating the steps to make my goals a reality and now I am a full time health & nutrition coach creating the life I want for my daughter and myself.

Guys, Will I Really Make Money , Grow My Business & Create Freedom In My Life?

(UH... OF COURSE - IT'S WHAT WE'RE WORLD-CLASS AT)

I felt exhausted, drained, and defeated. I didn’t have enough time for myself. I was overworking myself...My job was my life and my monthly sales average was 5-6k in training packages. Now my life looks different and my monthly average is 12k in sales.

Mikenna Kossaw

Fitness Manager, Master Trainer

I’ve Tried This Sort Of Coaching Before, Why Will The Academy Be Any Different?

“I knew The Strong Coach material was working for me when I was able to convert people who had turned down my previous offers. Now I am confident that I will convert the sale before getting on the call and I have been able to gradually increase my prices with fewer objections.”

Your Biggest Questions Answered

HEY COACH, IT'S MIKE...

I remember being in your position back when I owned CrossFit Memphis…

When I first asked Doug to help me out we slept in a tiny crawl space above the office that barely have enough room to sit up in

I was struggling for cash for fuel and food.

I was working my arse off to barely survive...

So if you're feeling new, nervous, scared or have any doubts whatsoever - I completely understand...

I’ve been there.

Any intelligent person will question a decision like this - and what you'll discover is that you have nothing to lose with this decision you're about to make

I’ve felt this way so many times before in my life. And every time I’ve said “yes” in these moments - my business and life expanded

I didn’t have the money to attend Eben Pagan’s event over a decade ago. In fact, I had to borrow cash! But it’s the choice that changed my life

If you have any questions, below you'll find a deep dive into those questions you might, or should be asking

Whether you're a coach who’s set the foundation for their business and growth has stalled in the $5-$10k/mo mark, or you’re an experienced coach reading this who is trying to grow their gym or online business - I know you've been taught a ton of old, archaic strategies in the industry “claiming” doing these specific activities will get you real results…

…if that were true, wouldn’t every coach that does them have a successful coaching business?

Exactly..

The Academy is not that.

We intentionally designed it to be an implementation rocketship program that gives you everything you need to impact people's lives, build your dream coaching business, and live your dream life

Hell, it’s exactly how I did it for myself..

This is NOT a course.

This is step-by-step coaching and a guided set of proven systems and tools specifically designed to build out everything needed for a successful, long-term coaching business.

I put my name, my heart, and my soul behind the Strong Coach Method and this Community we’re building together…

…and as you've seen, you know we will do all we can to support you to get out of your own way, so you can have everything YOU want

It’s not easy putting aside the feeling of fear. I get that. I really do…

Hell, I ended business’, marriage, and life as I knew it because I was being called to more

I know the feeling of fear well...

You know our intention to deeply support you and help you become the coach you are meant to become

All you have to do?

Take action. Step up. Make a decision and take the first step towards creating a successful coaching business, impact people's lives, and live a life you’re excited to wake up to every day

You've seen and heard from coaches exactly like you who got incredible results in less than 8 weeks - and some inside just a few days.

You’ve seen and heard about coaches who made a commitment when they had no idea HOW it would work, HOW they’d pay for it, or HOW any of it was possible...

...and you saw them talk about getting MORE than just new clients, extra business, or more money.

You saw them believe in themselves and create a whole new business and life...

A better one.

One that reflected their dreams.

No matter how things are there is always a next level for you...

We know you are capable of this, and we’d love to support you in building a successful business that helps lead this broken industry

The truth is that never before in history has there been a time such as this where people NEED you this badly to help them through their pain and into a new place of promise

This is YOUR time. This is the time of THE COACH.

And while we may rave about The Curiosity Game or Vision Casting… they’re just tools.

What is this really about?

It’s about you.

You’re why I created The Strong Coach

People need your help… People are out there waiting for you to coach them

You may doubt this. You may doubt me, whether this program will work for you, or whether you have what it takes to succeed (*hell, I know I did).

Yet the honest truth is these doubts are a normal part of life... they strengthen when your inner-voice and heart is calling you to step up.

If you know your doubt is holding you back from being the world-class coach you know you can be and creating freedom in your life - you need to ask yourself this question:

"Am I willing to let my doubt or fear be the reason I don’t create the freedom I want?”

Really ask yourself...

“Am I willing to let my fear be the reason I don’t achieve my goals, dreams and am successful?”

You know exactly why I'm asking you this question - it’s a question you ask your own clients...

Once you ask yourself this, there's no going back.

So, my friend, since you took on the 5 day challenge I will hold you to a high standard and respectfully challenge you.

I challenge you to believe in yourself.

I challenge you to be stronger than your doubt.

I challenge you to be stronger than your fears.

I challenge you to be stronger than your money blocks or stress around time.

I challenge you to step into being the world-class coach you are meant to be.

I challenge you to step courageously into your new reality.

I challenge you to start today and I promise to support you every step of the way.

All you have to do is take the first step - and join us right now.
