Discovery Calls
Training

Get more clients saying yes, without feeling pushy!

You became a Nutrition Professional to help people and it’s frustrating when some people don’t even understand what you do. Offering complementary short enquiry sessions, often referred to as "discovery calls", are a great way for your clients to discuss their health issues and "discover" how you can help them.

But how do YOU feel about discovery calls?

Lots of Nutrition Practitioners we speak to fear them as they don’t want to come across as being sales-y or pushy. You absolutely love what you do – maybe even feel that nutrition is your calling – but may feel so uncomfortable when it comes to the selling part that you know you are not helping enough people.

If you’re like a lot of Nutrition Professionals, the chances are you...

want to help more people to transform their health
are nervous about discovery calls, scared of seeming pushy and worried about people saying no
feel uncomfortable talking about the prices of your services. Perhaps you even end discovery calls saying "I will email you my programmes and pricing" just to get out of voicing your prices out loud?
are worried that "no-one wants to buy programmes at the moment" and "it’s not a good time, no-one has the money"
are tired of hearing potential clients say “I need to think about it” or “I can’t afford it”
or perhaps you feel like you have to deliver more and more to clients for free, to show them your worth?

It doesn't have to be like this!

Join our Discovery Calls Training for Nutrition Professionals to learn how to have authentic conversations that convert, warmly inviting your clients to work with you.

This three-week live Masterclass covers all the tech needed to set up and run successful discovery calls with a proven script. Plus you will gain clarity and confidence in your personal value so you can clearly articulate how you can support potential clients. Most importantly, the course will transform your feelings and beliefs about selling.

After these three weeks you will approach discovery calls in a completely new way, with a totally different mindset. Yes, it really is possible for this process to feel warm, caring and effortless without a trace of feeling pushy or sales-y!

How much does it cost?

The monthly membership costs £59 a month (inc VAT) and the price will remain the same for life. The price will increase the next time the doors are open, though your price will always remain the same. You can also choose to pay £295 for six months for the price of five months, so you get one month included for free.
How long do I need to commit for?

You can be a Zestie as long as you like! The minimum period is just one month. Your membership fee is paid monthly and you can stop your membership at any time. However if you leave you won't be able to rejoin until the next time we open for enrolment - usually every 6 months. If you take the six month option for £295 then your initial contract length is six months. When the six months ends you can choose to stay on for another six months at £295 or pay £59 per month, or leave. The choice is entirely up to you.
How much time does it take to work through all the Club membership training modules?

The programmes in our Training Academy are available for you to access in bite-sized chunks at any time, 24/7. If you can find just one hour each week to watch the lessons, together with 1-2 hours to put what you have learnt into practice, you will make steady progress. If you have more time you can work through the all modules at your own pace, you get access to all the training as soon as you join. We've seen newly qualified practitioners follow the pathway and be fully set up with their website, pricing structure, practice management systems and seeing their first clients within three months of qualifying. It really depends how much time you have to work on your business.
What if I don't have enough time to keep up with everything?

Unlike a course there is no such thing as “falling behind” when it comes to a membership so we would encourage you to see it as a treasure trove of resources you can dip into when you need to, rather than something you have to "keep up with". Not enough hours in the day is a big challenge for so many nutrition business owners so we aim to help you, by having greater clarity on what your next step is, and a laser focus on just one high impact thing at a time. Attending the welcome webinar and visioning session will help you with this. By following our six-stage pathway you will have less things to focus on, and so more time to focus on those things that really matter.
Will I receive 1-2-1 business mentoring?

There are fortnightly Group Coaching events in the Club, during which you are welcome to raise questions and receive personal support. The Club Facebook Group is there to support you too. If you are seeking personal 1-2-1 mentoring, our signature 12 month business mentoring programme is designed for this: https://www.zest4lifebusiness.com/mentoring-programmes
Is the Zest4life Health Coaching Course included within the Club membership?

Zest4life are also experts in Health Coaching Training for Nutrition Professionals. As a Zest4life Club member you will receive £100 discount on our BANT and NTOI accredited 6 week health coaching live training course, which runs twice a year, the next one starts in March.
Is the Zest4life Nutrition Resource Centre included in the Club membership?

Zest4life has one of the largest nutrition business libraries of resources in the world with over 500 pieces of ready-to-use marketing materials worth over £6500. Access to the complete Resource Centre is included within our signature 12 month Business Growth Programme. As a Club member you will receive a quarterly bundle of client resources every three months which typically includes one beautifully designed client e-book, one professionally written newsletter, nine seasonal recipes developed by our in-house team of nutritionists and a selection of curated seasonal images to use in your marketing.
I'm not based in the UK. Is the Club suitable for me?

The Club pathway has been developed to be relevant to Nutrition Professionals in lots of different countries. We have Nutrition Business Mentors based in the UK, Ireland, Spain and South Africa who all contribute their knowledge and expertise to the training in the Club. We already have lots of Club members from different locations including UK, Ireland, Spain, Switzerland, Greece, South Africa, Canada, Australia and the Middle East who are making a success of their business. Wherever you are based you will be made very welcome by our diverse community.
Do you have Club membership intakes throughout the year?

We currently open the Club membership for enrolment every 6 months. We only open enrolment for short periods so that the rest of the time we can be fully focused on our members and ensuring they have an amazing experience, rather than diluting our focus with sales and marketing activity. Having new members join only at certain times of year also helps ensure a safe space where everyone has time to get to know each other in between inductions.
I'm just starting out. Am I ready?

The membership is designed to support you from a standing start. No website? No clients? Just an idea? We'll support you to get those essential foundations in place you need to get your first few paying clients - and you'll be off!
I've been in business for years, will I get enough out of it?

Lots of Nutrition Professionals work their businesses as a side hustle. If you’ve been doing this for years, then the Club membership is ideal for helping you to build up to a full time income. If you’re at the stage where you have an established business and are thinking about creating online programmes, employing associates or setting up a membership to scale further then our personal business mentoring programmes maybe more suitable for helping you to build up to a six-figure income: https://www.zest4lifebusiness.com/nutrition-business-growth
I'm already overwhelmed, will this add to this?

What we see is that most nutrition business owners are overwhelmed because they have simply taken on too much. They are trying to juggle too many marketing strategies that are not yielding results or getting the attention of their ideal clients, following too many different business models, or being unclear on the most impactful next step for them. So, of course, it's a recipe for overwhelm and burnout. One of the things you get with this membership is a six-stage pathway designed specifically for Nutrition Professionals where you are clear on the next best step for you, and can start doing less activity that has a high impact, rather than lots of activity that either doesn't work for you or isn't right for your stage of business.
What if it turns out it's not for me?

We believe you'll get amazing value from being a member of the Nutrition Business Success Club. However, if you don’t feel you are getting value you can cancel your monthly membership at any time by emailing membersupport@zest4life.com. If you take the six month option for £295 then your initial contract length is six months. When the six months ends you can choose to stay on for another six months at £295 or pay £59 per month, or leave. The decision is completely up to you.
