40 Marketing Strategies to Grow Your Nutrition Business
In this episode of How to Build a Profitable Nutrition Business, Chris is joined by his wife and marketing strategist Stacey Hughes to share over 40 marketing strategies that helped them grow their dietetic business into a thriving seven-figure operation. From humble beginnings with no time for marketing and three kids under three, they dive into how referrer relationships, like weekly meetings with GPs and chronic disease nurses, became the backbone of their growth. They also discuss the creative tools they used to stay top of mind—like branded recipe magazines, co-branded resources, conference speaking gigs, and even old-school postcards that delivered an impressive ROI. Whether it was building online calculators for eating disorder referrals or dropping off sushi platters to start conversations, their approach combined consistency, creativity, and community.
They also explore what worked when targeting the public, from SEO-optimised blogs and Facebook ads to cooking demos, webinars, and health challenges that boosted engagement and email signups. Stacey highlights how automation tools and AI have made marketing more accessible than ever, and why building visibility through regular content—like Lives, podcasts, and newsletters—remains crucial. They wrap up by sharing what they’d do differently today, from leveraging Google Ads to deeper nurturing of existing clients. This episode is a goldmine for any health professional wanting practical, real-world strategies that don’t require a full-time marketing team.
