Just starting your nutrition business or struggling to get traction after months of trying? In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the five biggest mistakes that keep new nutritionists, dietitians, and health coaches stuck in "set-up mode" instead of actually signing clients and making money.
I share my own cringe-worthy early business blunders (including the months I spent perfecting my website while making zero income) and reveal why waiting for "perfect" before starting is costing you valuable time, experience, and revenue. You'll discover why your existing network is your fastest path to your first clients (not Instagram followers!), and why that £3,000 website might be the worst investment for your new business.
Through my "Experiment Method" framework, I'll show you how your first clients hold the golden key to finding your perfect niche—without the pressure of having everything figured out from day one. Whether you're overthinking your packages, trying to DIY everything without support, or ignoring the valuable connections you already have, this episode gives you the exact roadmap to avoid these pitfalls and sign your first three clients quickly.
Plus, I introduce my brand new program designed specifically for nutrition business beginners—The Business Bite—a bite-sized, actionable course and community that helps you build your MVP (minimal viable business) and sign your first three clients without the confusion and overwhelm I experienced. Learn how you can set up a simple, effective one-page website in less than 60 minutes, leverage my "Low-Hanging Fruit" strategy to find clients without social media, and gain the confidence to run your first sessions without overthinking everything.
