Group Programmes
Fast Track

Create and launch your group nutrition programme in just four months.

Are you finding it challenging to generate a consistent income from 1-2-1 client work? Does your practice feel a bit feast or famine? Would you like to get off this revenue rollercoaster?

Online nutrition courses and group programmes can offer an additional revenue stream for Nutrition Professionals. Whilst 1-2-1 clinic work is rewarding, it can also be intense and draining, and offering group programmes can be a way to bring in more income with a ‘lighter touch’ service. Group programmes can also allow you to support a wider range of clients who may not yet be ready for a personalised nutrition programme or have a more limited budget.

What our Zest4life members say...

Liz_Bortoli.jpeg

"I love group programmes, I think it’s incredibly powerful to have people come together and share, learn and take that journey together. They helped build my confidence when I first began as a practitioner, and they’ve been a platform to get 1-2-1 work as well. I’ve now got new clients booked in to start with me after the summer holidays, so I’m using it as paid marketing!"

LIZ BORTOLI

Debbie Fitzpatrick.png

"Before I launched my first online nutrition course, I watched Zest4life's training on how to market the courses on my social media and email platforms, which led to about 30 people on my first programme.  I've run eight groups now and every one has been full with 30 clients, I even have a waiting list and some clients do them more than once! Groups are light touch, which is a really nice change from 1-2-1s."

DEBBIE FITZPATRICK

Debbie Gallimore new.jpg

"I've been collaborating successfully with a personal trainer for seven years to offer fitness and nutrition programmes. It has really raised my profile in my local area, plus I typically get 1 or 2 clients from every online programme that we do into my 1-2-1 funnel, which is fantastic from a business perspective.”

“I joined Zest4life five years ago when I graduated from CNELM as I didn't know where to start with marketing my business, how to set up a website, etc. I wanted support as I knew I would be working by myself being a self-employed Nutritional Therapist.

 

Over the last three years I have run several successful online group programmes. I found the Zest done-for-you food plans and marketing materials extremely useful when constructing a 3-week detox programme. I was slightly blown away by the clients' results and feedback. They absolutely loved it, with one client describing it as 'life-changing!'.

 

Offering online group programmes has had a real impact on my practice. It has massively increased my audience and doubled the number of people I now work with. I find running groups really uplifting as the group supports each other and even when one person is stuck, the rest of the group are sharing their successes. Plus it has doubled my revenue!"

NICKY DENVIR

"I would really encourage anyone who is thinking of offering a group programme to listen to Helen's great webinars on running an online group and just do it. All participants have been amazed by the quality of the content, and it makes life for us so much easier - so a very big thank you Zest. Feedback even after the first week of following the food plan has been really positive."

SARAH DAVIDSON

"I am certain my business would not be where it is today without the support and guidance that I have received ever since joining Zest4life.

I now have easy access to really top class resources which I regularly use with my clients. Most of all, being part of this team means I quickly gained confidence to know I am doing the best thing for my clients."

CAROLINE O'NEILL

Debra Mitchell.JPG

"I've just finished running a very successful 14-day detox. The materials were brilliant to use and the done-for-you email and Facebook posts were great for giving me ideas of what to post regularly. The feedback has been amazing. I have run programmes in the past but I found the content and materials provided made it so easy and professional looking."

Work with our 

Nutrition Business Mentors

Alex Allen Sq.jpg

In addition to the five-week online live training course you will also have eight sessions with your very own personal Business Mentor. Working with your Nutrition Business Mentor twice a month will give you clarity and focus, together with accountability and feedback on where to focus your energy and attention to generate results. We have a highly skilled team of Business Mentors who all run their own nutrition practices and have a proven track record of running successful group programmes. 

 

They will get to know you, and be someone you can trust and turn to when you need to make decisions, offering constructive feedback to keep you moving forward on your journey to launching your group programme.

Those who are determined to elevate their performance in any field get a coach or mentor. A mentor’s role is to enable another person to grow and develop personally and professionally so they reach their goals. With a mentor you get focused on what you really want and create a clear pathway to ensure you get there, working through any barriers that stand in your way. Critically your mentor gets to know you well and holds you accountable to ensure you get it done. This is often the missing link when running your own business.

 

We believe that business mentoring is key for Nutrition Professionals if they wish to grow their business. As a business owner, not only are you responsible for seeing clients in clinic, but also growing and developing your business to its full potential. Imagine being able to earn the revenue you want to, achieve that elusive work life balance and really enjoy running your own practice.

"My mentor coached me through those unknown unknowns so that I now have a solid foundation upon which to really develop my NT business. She gave me reassurance that I was always on the right lines, providing a scaffold from which I could develop my thoughts and ideas and was relentlessly optimistic to pull me through when I was feeling overwhelmed."

“One of the main attractions of Zest4life is the support you get from the mentors and your fellow members who are always there to offer advice. Starting your own business can be exciting yet sometimes overwhelming when you start to list out all the things you need to do to initially get yourself up and running. Their guidance and motivation is invaluable."

They can structure and plan their week to ensure they can fit in the programme requirements.

    As part of the Level UP Group Mentoring Programme you will receive personalised feedback on your business project templates from an experienced business mentor and live coaching in the Live Group Mentoring sessions. You will also benefit from two 30 minute 1-2-1 mentoring sessions with a nutrition business expert during the Level UP Programme. If you are seeking personal 1-2-1 mentoring, our signature Business Growth Programme is designed for this: https://www.zest4lifebusiness.com/mentoring-programmes
  • Is the Zest4life Nutrition Resource Centre included in Level UP?
    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 the Level UP Programme.
  • I'm not based in the UK. Is Level UP suitable for me?
    Level UP has been developed to be relevant to Nutrition Professionals in lots of different countries. We have Nutrition Business Mentors based in the UK, Ireland, France and South Africa who all contribute their knowledge and expertise to the training. We have many Zest4life 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 Level UP intakes throughout the year?
    In 2025 there are two intakes planned- starting Tuesday 11th March and September (date TBC).
  • I'm just starting out. Am I ready?
    Level UP 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?
    We understand that as an experienced practitioner, you might already have many systems in place, but the Level Up Mentoring Programme is designed to challenge and refine even established practices. For example, many practitioners believe they have an effective website or discovery call process, but when we delve deeper, areas like client messaging, programme pricing, call-to-action clarity, or conversion rates often reveal room for improvement. The Level UP programme provides expert insights, structured accountability, and peer support to ensure you’re not just doing well but achieving your full potential. If you're open to refining your approach and tackling key areas of your business with fresh perspective, we’re confident you’ll find it highly valuable. If you’re at the stage where your systems are working super effectively and you are thinking about expanding your services by creating group programmes, courses, corporate wellness, a membership; or employing associates 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.zest4life.com/progression
  • 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. With Level UP one of the things you get is clear blueprint to follow so 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. You will also get value feedback on your business ideas from an expert mentor who has built a successful fully booked practice, and be working to clear deadlines so that you make measurable progress within a defined timescale.
