You have many options about how you will offer your nutrition-related services.

Some experts offer in-person, one-on-one coaching for their clients.
Others offer the same service online. Still, others offer some type of hybrid program where the clients receive a portion of their coaching in-person and other aspects online via email, Skype, Zoom video, text and/or PDF documents.

Some nutrition and food experts are combining their efforts and offering personal fitness chef services or creating a meal prep business in addition to nutrition coaching. 

In most cases, people hire you for food or nutrition services for 2 reasons.  First, they know they need to improve their nutritional habits.  Second, they are short on time and want services that save them time.  They are willing to pay top dollar for anything that saves them time.  

Of course, many coaches work with entire families.  

Why is it a great idea to help an entire family?

1. You improve your efficiency by working with more clients at a single location.
2. They get better results due to a group effort.
3. You get more people to refer you new clients.
4. Your rate for a family of 4 is higher than a single person.
5. It makes a great case study (social media) story for your business.

You may be wondering how you would run a food/chef/meal prep business.
