Justin Sarris, MBA

President & Chief Consultant

Justin helps expert-led service businesses sharpen their messaging, so the right clients understand what sets them apart before the first conversation.

His résumé is very different from most marketing leaders’. He spent more than a decade in technical support, media systems, and live entertainment, often as the person translating between techs, creatives, clients, and business owners.

At 23, he was promoted into management at two separate companies, where he trained users on sophisticated audio-visual systems and managed 6- and 7-figure projects.

That experience informs his pragmatic approach to writing. He understands complex work well enough to explain it simply, and he knows the difference between sounding impressive and being understood.

Today, Justin leads every Dominion Messaging System (DMS) engagement and serves as a fractional CMO for ongoing clients, bringing in trusted specialists from our network to execute.

He lives in BC’s Okanagan Valley with his wife and two daughters and plays guitar in a local band.
