We are at a pivotal moment where AI and content generation are evolving rapidly. Almost everyone can now create content quickly and efficiently, leading to a highly competitive environment. 

The question then becomes, how do you differentiate yourself in this crowded space?

The answer lies in understanding a fundamental truth: AI, despite its many capabilities, cannot replicate human emotions. It cannot offer the warmth, empathy, and personal touch that come naturally to us. People crave these human elements, especially in fields like nutrition and healthcare, where personal connection and trust are paramount.

So, how can you elicit emotions, show genuine care, and be empathetic in your content? How can you create experiences that resonate deeply with your ideal customers and set you apart in this sea of content creators? 

In this episode, I’ll share 10 practical ways you can transform your content into engaging experiences. These strategies are designed to help you connect with your audience on a deeper level, drive practice growth, and ultimately create a loyal community around your brand. Whether you’re conducting live cooking demos, hosting virtual workshops, or simply leaving personalized voice notes, these methods will help you deliver content that is not only informative but also emotionally resonant.

Join me as I share insights from Today’s Dietitian Symposium in Salt Lake City where I learned valuable lessons about client urgency and how it can accelerate your sales funnel. Discover how presenting your core offer to ideal clients with urgent needs can transform your practice.

Key Points:

• Client Urgency: Clients with severe, immediate health issues are more likely to seek and commit to professional guidance quickly.
• Psychological Factors: Fear, anxiety, pain, desire for quick results, and perceived risk drive urgent clients to act swiftly.
• Impact on Sales Funnel: Targeting urgent clients shortens the sales cycle, increases conversion rates, enhances client engagement, and improves retention.
• Identifying Niches: Focus on specific urgent needs (e.g., IBD, pre-diabetes, post-surgery recovery) rather than broad niches.
• Fast-Response System: Implement systems like dedicated contact channels, automated responses, and priority scheduling to cater to urgent clients.
• Referring Doctors: Establish strong referral relationships with physicians to tap into a steady stream of pre-screened urgent clients.

Twice per month, I go live in our private FB group to hold a Q&A Office Hour and Strategy Call. Each event includes a conversation about a strategy for utilizing content for practice growth.

Today's recording focuses on Creating Captivating Opt-ins. You can visit our private Facebook group, Scale Your Nutrition Practice, for the complete recording. Simply apply by answering a few questions and you can join the active conversations happening here.

Opt-ins are foundational to driving practice growth as they are a top-of-funnel activity. Lousy opt-ins will yield lousy leads - as many marketers say, “garbage in, garbage out.” So the goal is right from the beginning to create an opt-in that attracts the right people, offers incredible value, and gets them wanting more.

We talk about what an opt-in is and its role in your marketing funnel, the elements of a captivating opt-in, tools to make creating and managing opt-in simple, and the customer journey from giving you their email address and receiving the opt-in, to being placed into the middle of your funnel activities.

Enjoy!

COVID left its impact on private practice health and wellness professionals thrusting us all into the digital space whether we wanted it or not. Some of us embraced it and some went kicking and screaming but here we are, 4 years later, and it appears that virtual services are here to stay.

Digital courses exploded during this time and while I think they are still relevant, they appear to be losing some of their appeal. Mostly because of the market saturation. 

It doesn’t mean we should move on to the next “thing” - whatever that is - but it does mean that we have to step up our game if we are to compete. It is essential that we not only stand out but also avoid the common pitfalls that many new course creators fall into.

Today we will talk about several predictable yet avoidable mistakes that could tank your digital course and what you can do to avoid them. I will introduce each problem by asking a question for you to consider.

We’ll cover:

• The ideal customer avatar
• Solutions for inadequate lead generation
• Eight questions to determine if your practice is ready for a digital course
