Do I have to provide coaching with the programs?

It is entirely up to the coach how they want to use the program. Some print them and use them during live coaching sessions to help guide the session. Some use them as a stand alone program and include some periodic coaching as well and still others will use them as self-run programs with no coaching involved. There is no right or wrong way and it is up to the coach to decide what they are comfortable with.

Can I get Samples of the Programs?

Each Sales Page has, towards the bottom, a set of images from the programs. These are screenshots of the program that are very clear- click on the thumbnails to enlarge. (You may need to enlarge the scale on your screen).

Do I need to customize my programs before my Membership Site is created?

No, you do not. You will load your customized programs AFTER the site is created so it is up to you when you would do that. The site does need to be created before any content can be switched out on it though.

Who are the professionals who contributed to the various programs?

3, 6, 9, 12 Month Programs

What is the 3, 6, 9, 12 Month Program?

The 12 month program is a beautiful, professional guide through the health coaching process. It is for qualified health professionals and includes forms, educational information for clients, goal setting and assessment tools. We hand them out to our clients as we approach each meeting. This 3-6-9-12 month program is very mainstream and basic. We are developing module inserts for special focus like diabetes, inflammation, women’s, men’s and children's issues, etc…they can be inserted as needed into the basic program. Listening is still the most important part of the health coaching session…this program gives the coach comfort, professionalism and tools and the client a wonderful base on which to grow and learn.

How is the 3, 6, 9, 12 Month Program different from your original 6 Month Program?

The 12 month program is 6 months longer (the most obvious). It is easily broken down into 3-6-9 and 12 month programs as well as interchanging modules. The biggest change is that it is a little more mainstream. We start out with goal setting, journaling and tracking progress, nutrition (my plate and portions), exercise…and we don’t really get into too much in the way of lifestyle changes outside nutrition and exercise until the 4th month. There were some requests for inflammation, sugar, addictions, stress,…..we took all the feedback into account and did our own 12 month program that is getting raves! This is more of a guide through coaching instead of handouts. It is easily adjustable too, so you can guide it. The best part! We are going to be able to slide specialties into it and focus on specialties like diabetes, food intolerance, addictions, women, men…etc.

I want to be able to choose when my clients are introduced to advanced nutrition principles, how do I do this with your program?

You have mainstream info to start with…and a supplemental advanced nutrition module you can give your people when you think they are ready. That can be at the beginning…or the end …or the middle, all clients are different and you are the one who knows when the right time is.

What is the difference between the IIN and The Health Coach Group Program?

Our program is beautiful, professional and ready to use the day you buy it. It is already organized in clean and easy to read PowerPoint slides. You look professional from day 1 and you don’t have to spend countless hours trying to put pages of handouts in a presentation format. At the time this program was designed, IIN had handouts that you could use for your clients. The 3-6-9-12 month program is an entire program that is modular. At the base it is very mainstream and the modules can be interchanged to fit the needs of your client. The Stock the Shelves has several other programs that are stand alone and good for group use as well as individual clients. The 12 Day Detox, 28 Day Slim, Sexy and Smart and the 28 Day Spiritual Program. The Physician Weight Loss Program, Healthy Habits is approved by a Physician and has a dietitian and personal trainer option to give you added credibility. This program is extremely professional with marketing, administration, videos, modules and workbooks. This program is strong enough to run an entire business on and supports ALL dietary theories. The Business Course – Building Abundance bridges the gap and gives you the plan that is necessary to get your business up and running. When you graduate, you are certainly ready to coach, but not necessarily ready to run your own business, this gets you ready. “Platinum Package” and “The Business”, Virtual Assistance is set up to create a business for you, complete with instructions. Ready-Set- Go!

I remember seeing and having the 3, and 9 month program in my list. It is no longer there. Has that changed to 12 months only?

The 12 Month program includes the 3, 6, 9, and 12 months programs. 3 Month Program - Months 1-3 6 Month Program - Months 1-6 9 Month Program - Months 1-9 12 Month Program - Months 1-12

Healthy Holidays

What Is Healthy Holidays? How Does It Work?

Healthy Holidays is a group program designed for Facebook that is especially helpful to your customers in getting through the holidays in better shape than what they came in. This program is intended to lead into a long-term health coaching relationship between you and your participant. We have this set up as a FREE program because it is more valuable as a relationship starter than as a short-term money maker. It is a great way to market your services. Everyone participates in their own way. They set goals and are accountable for their actions and progress at least once a week.

Goals should include…

 Nutrition (adding in at least one healthy food per week)  Exercise (a minimum of 30 minutes 6 days a week)  Gratitude (take the time to be grateful for at least 3 things in your life daily)  Giving (challenge yourself to give without expectation of reciprocation once daily)

What is included for you?

An advertisement for Facebook, Twitter or even Pinterest. An e-mail to welcome your clients and explain the program. We will walk you through setting up your Facebook Group. An instructional video is included and it will show you what buttons to push, tell you what to enter into the appropriate boxes as well as providing a cover graphic for your group. Example goals to give your clients comfort and a guide in setting their own goals. A goal setting sheet to guide your clients in the right direction when setting meaningful goals. (6) Motivational graphics to post weekly in your group. A calendar to help you track postings, topics, and activities in the group. Discussion questions to quickly build camaraderie, trust, and openness in your group. An opportunity to build your business by establishing trust in an intimate relationship.

What this does not include:

Meal plans Diets Weight loss This is set up as a group program, but may be used one on one.

Healthy Habits / 12 Week Physician Weight Loss

WHY Use Healthy Habits?

While the detoxes and short programs are good, they need to lead into a program that you can work with on an ongoing basis that will make a lifetime of change. This program will allow health coaches the comfort of working with your clients in partnership with a general practitioner, psychologist, personal trainer and a dietitian. Your client can feel well taken care of with 5 professional specialists behind their efforts. The program is affordable for your customer. You may want to sell the Bronze Program for $296, Silver for $747 and Gold – $1,647.

OVERVIEW

It is a 12-week weight loss program.
Includes 2 levels of programming content: facilitation guide for health coaches to administer the program and program being facilitated/ client materials.
Socratic method for teaching – worksheets/activities for clients to have “aha” moments
Possible meal planning upsell (extra).
Basic program delivery covered.
Should promote local coach as expert while leveraging time away from “hour-for-pay” model.
Include ability to customize for viewpoints on nutrition while still emphasizing bio-individual beliefs.

12 Day Detox

What do you Send Out & When?

We recommend sending out a prep email or notification and give them access to the prep materials ( module, workbook, video) when they purchase. Then on the first day, they begin to receive daily emails (or notifications) along with the module, workbook, and videos that are released to them daily.

Where can I find the Emails in Word Format?

The emails are in the administrative file of the Full Download in your members area.

When should the documents be sent out for the 12 Day Detox

If you use the 12 day detox as an individual program and mail the contents to the client as soon as they sign up using an auto-responder, when would you start to send the daily emails? Would you suggest somehow asking them when they want to start the detox–like have them email you with a start date they select? Send the first email when they purchase and sign up. Send the rest of the emails daily. You want to set the start date for when you are most available to participate.

Do you suggest setting up a new Facebook group for each new group 12-day you offer?

It depends on a lot of factors. If you release the daily materials in the group…then you have to start over. Sometimes it is nice to have a bigger group and offer old members free go-backs (and renewed opportunity to upsell).

If I want to rearrange sections or add other sections to 12-day (and make it a 14-day for instance), are the editing rules the same?

Yes, the same editing rules apply.

How often so you suggest checking FB and emails for questions/comments during these cleanses? It seems you could get easily bombarded with questions.

It depends on the amount of communication. It isn’t reasonable to do it more than a couple times a day…it could swallow up your entire day. It is also not as easy to miss something if you have a routine…like 7 am – 12 am and 8 pm….might be good.

What's the difference between the Christian version and the normal version of the 12 day detox?

They are quite similar with the exception that the Christian version has some scripture and religious quotes/motivations included in the program.

Is there a sales page for the 12 day detox spanish version?

You will need to do the translation. It's my understanding that WordPress or DIVI may have something that will help you with it.

28 Day Spiritual Cleanse

What is the 28 Day Spiritual Cleanse?

The Clutter Cleanse

I bought the clutter cleanse. In the daily emails it says "Read more" and when I clicked on it the link took me to infusionsoft and said "page not found". Please help.

You will want to link the "read more" directly to the Clutter Cleanse blog posts you create. Those are found in the Marketing Folder of the Clutter Cleanse section. (OR - If you'd prefer not to put them as blog posts, you can simply include the suggested blog post in the daily emails.)

How long does the Clutter Cleanse last?

It's set at 14 days but some coaches have increase it to 28 days just to give their clients more time on rooms that might take a little longer. It just depends on how you want to run it! Some like the 14 days and some prefer longer.

If I have Healthie and The Clutter Cleanse, will they load it on the Healthie platform?

No, The Clutter Cleanse is not meant to be used in a membership platform, instead it is used through a Facebook Group (or a forum). To run the Clutter Cleanse, you simply need to set up the emails, create the blog posts using the provided content, and then run the program in the group setting on Facebook. No membership site needed!
