Helping Owners Build Healthier Businesses
I’m Josh Muller, Owner of Maple Creek Coaching
I’m Josh Muller, business coach, facilitator, and founder of BUILD My Business Masterminds. I help entrepreneurs and leadership teams build sustainable, scalable companies without burn out.
Before Maple Creek Coaching, I owned and eventually sold a construction company. I know firsthand the pressure, risk, and responsibility that come with leading a business, and I know there’s a healthier way to do it.
My Story
I didn’t start out as a coach. I started as a business owner, building a construction company from scratch, managing crews, chasing contracts, and learning (often the hard way) what it takes to build something sustainable.
Along the way, I discovered that the systems and frameworks I was using to run my business (operating rhythms, strategic planning, leadership development) were the same things other owners desperately needed but didn’t know how to implement.
After successfully selling my company, I realized my next chapter wasn’t about building another business for myself. It was about helping other owners build theirs without making the same mistakes I made, and without the burnout that so many entrepreneurs accept as normal.
Today, I live in Northeast Ohio with my wife and three kids. When I’m not coaching, you’ll find me hiking, backpacking, working out, or at a concert. These things aren’t just hobbies; they’re reminders that business is a means to a life, not the other way around.
What I Believe
Relationships First
I believe business is fundamentally about people. Every strategy, every system, every decision ultimately comes back to relationships with customers, team members, and yourself.
Custom Planning
Hustle culture isn’t the answer. I help owners create custom plans to fit their business and their team. This allows businesses to grow sustainably, without sacrificing health, relationships, or sanity.
Consistent Growth
Theory is great, but implementation is everything. I focus on practical systems and roles that work in the real world and lead to consistent growth.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes you different from other coaches?
Most coaches come in saying ‘I’m awesome, I’ve done everything, let me tell you how.’ My approach is different: I feel your pain. I’ve been where you are. I listen first, hold up the mirror, and help you own your own thoughts and your own business. Everything we do is custom. No courses, no cookie-cutter systems.
Do I need to be in Northeast Ohio to work with you?
No. While I’m based in Cuyahoga Falls and love working with local businesses, I work with clients across the country via video calls. BUILD events are local, but coaching and facilitation can happen anywhere.
What if I'm not sure coaching is right for me?
Start with a BUILD event or a free clarity session. There’s no pressure to sign anything. I’d rather you find the right fit than force something that doesn’t work.
How much does coaching cost?
What is it costing you not to do it? Coaching is cheaper than bad hiring decisions. It’s cheaper than wasting marketing spend when you’re unclear on who you are. Pricing varies by engagement, but I’m always transparent upfront.
