245: Is a $99 Community Platform Worth It, How to Use Claude the Right Way in Biz, When to Hire vs. Do It Yourself
Aug 19, 202632 min
In this episode of the Dietitian Success Podcast, I'm covering three topics that are all about working smarter in your business, whether that is making better financial decisions about the tools you invest in, getting more out of the AI tools you are already using, or figuring out what to hand off and when without feeling like you have to do everything at once or nothing at all. We talk about how to evaluate whether a platform like Skool is actually worth $99 a month, the one thing most people are missing when they use Claude that makes the output feel generic, and how to think about outsourcing as a stepwise process rather than an all-or-nothing decision. Inside, we cover: Why the question is never what does this cost but what does this enable me to do How to do the actual math on a $99 monthly platform and why the answer might surprise you Why the step you are skipping with Claude is a brand book and what that actually means Why I think social content actually works better when it comes from you directly rather than AI (but how to use AI still to help you save time and build creativity) How Claude is still genuinely useful even if it is not writing your captions Why you probably do not need to outsource bookkeeping in year one of your business How my own approach to bookkeeping and taxes has evolved over six years from a Google spreadsheet to a full accounting firm Why the decision of what to hand off tends to become obvious when the timing is actually right Why messy and iterative is a completely normal and healthy part of building a business Links: Check out the Entrepreneurship Tier of Dietitian Success Center: https://www.dietitiansuccesscenter.com/entrepreneurshipfordietitians Join the Dietitian Success Summit 2026: https://www.dietitiansuccesscenter.com/the-dietitian-success-summit-2026 Follow @dietitiansuccesscenter on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansuccesscenter/ Connect with @kristako.rd on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kristako.rd/ Free Starter Kit: https://www.dietitiansuccesscenter.com/

244: Why Always Being Available Is Hurting You, What Telehealth Companies Mean for Private Practice Dietitians, and What to Look for in a Business Coach
Aug 5, 202628 min
In this episode of the Dietitian Success Podcast, I'm tackling three topics that are coming up constantly right now for dietitian entrepreneurs at every stage of business. We talk about how to actually build boundaries into your practice before the burnout hits, what the rise of telehealth companies like Nourish and Faye actually means for private practice dietitians and how to differentiate yourself, and how to choose a business coach without getting pulled in by the most polished Instagram presence in the room. Inside, we cover: Why being always available is not professional and what it actually signals to potential clients How to decide your boundaries upfront and communicate them transparently so everyone is on the same page Why an open booking schedule can make you look less in demand rather than more accessible What telehealth companies like Nourish and Faye have done to the dietetics market and why I still believe private practice has a strong future Why the answer to competing with telehealth companies is never price and always brand Why niching further and building a more specialized practice is going to become increasingly important The two most common complaints I hear from dietitians who have worked with business coaches that did not feel right Why I was allergic to the term business coach for years and why I have made peace with it How to vet a business coach before you spend money, including the one platform I think does this better than any other Links: Check out the Entrepreneurship Tier of Dietitian Success Center: https://www.dietitiansuccesscenter.com/entrepreneurshipfordietitians Fay, Nourish, Berry Street and Beyond: https://dietitiansuccesscenter.com/fay-nourish-berry-street-beyond-dietitian-perspectives-on-working-for-telehealth-startups/ Join the Dietitian Success Summit 2026: https://www.dietitiansuccesscenter.com/the-dietitian-success-summit-2026 Follow @dietitiansuccesscenter on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansuccesscenter/ Connect with @kristako.rd on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kristako.rd/ Free Starter Kit: https://www.dietitiansuccesscenter.com/

243: Working ON vs. IN Your Business, Hustle Culture vs. the Soft Girl Era, and What $19,000 in Transaction Fees Taught Me About Growing a Business
Jul 29, 202633 min
In this episode of the Dietitian Success Podcast, I'm tackling three topics that are all connected by the same underlying theme: what it actually takes to build a business that grows, without burning yourself out in the process. We talk about how to carve out time to work on your business when your client schedule is already full, where I land on the hustle culture versus soft girl era debate and why I think both extremes are doing you a disservice, and a transparent look at a $19,000 line item on our corporate tax return and what it taught me about how to think about money in a growing business. Inside, we cover: Why nothing changes if nothing changes, and what that actually means for your schedule The people-pleasing habit that is keeping your calendar too open and your business too stagnant Why an overly open booking schedule can actually make you look less professional, not more accessible Where hustle culture gets it right and where it goes too far What the soft girl era gets right and where it becomes a convenient excuse Why I take issue with the phrase “giving yourself grace” and when I actually think it applies The real middle ground between grinding and coasting, and what it looked like when I was building DSC while working a nine-to-five with a three-hour daily commute $19,000 in transaction fees, why I am completely unbothered by it, and what my accountant said that reframed everything Why your job as a business owner is to grow revenue, not reduce expenses Links: Check out the Entrepreneurship Tier of Dietitian Success Center: https://www.dietitiansuccesscenter.com/entrepreneurshipfordietitians Join the Dietitian Success Summit 2026: https://www.dietitiansuccesscenter.com/the-dietitian-success-summit-2026 Follow @dietitiansuccesscenter on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansuccesscenter/ Connect with @kristako.rd on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kristako.rd/ Free Starter Kit: https://www.dietitiansuccesscenter.com/

242: Can One-on-One Sessions Be a Signature Program, How to Create Merch for Zero Upfront Cost and Why Indecision is Costing You $
Jun 24, 202636 min
In this episode of the Dietitian Success Podcast, I'm covering three topics for dietitians who are building or growing their businesses. We talk about what a signature program actually is and whether only offering one-on-one sessions can qualify, how to create physical products for your brand without spending money on inventory upfront, and what happens when you finish something in your business and then just cannot seem to pull the trigger on launching it. Inside, we cover: Why the concept of a signature program is widely misunderstood and what it actually requires Why one-on-one sessions absolutely can be a signature program and how to structure and position them that way How to name and market a signature program so it reads as a premium, client-specific offer Why you should lead with outcomes in your marketing, not the format or the features How to create merch and physical products for your brand using Printify, Canva, VistaPrint, and third-party printers How drop shipping works so you never have to touch or hold inventory The real reason most dietitians sit on finished work instead of launching it Why the indecision tax is costing you more than you realize, in mental load and in revenue The warm fuzzies folder strategy for rebuilding belief in your own work Why detaching from the outcome is the thing that actually lets you move forward Links: Check out the Entrepreneurship Tier of Dietitian Success Center: https://www.dietitiansuccesscenter.com/entrepreneurshipfordietitians Join the Dietitian Success Summit 2026: https://www.dietitiansuccesscenter.com/the-dietitian-success-summit-2026 Follow @dietitiansuccesscenter on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansuccesscenter/ Connect with @kristako.rd on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kristako.rd/ Free Starter Kit: https://www.dietitiansuccesscenter.com/

241: My Mid-Year Goal Check-In and the Goal Setting Framework That Actually Changed My Life
Jun 17, 202636 min
In this episode of the Dietitian Success Podcast, I am doing something a little different. Instead of tackling three separate business questions, I am sharing my personal goal setting framework in full, doing a mid-year check-in on my own 2026 goals, and talking about why I believe this process is one of the most transformational things you can do for your business and your life. This framework is the one I have refined over years of practice, used to go from a nine-to-five commuter to a full-time entrepreneur and Ironman finisher, and am now teaching in depth at the Dietitian Success Summit this September. Inside, we cover: Why destination goals alone almost never work and what to do instead The difference between destination goals and process-oriented goals, and why the distinction changes everything Why the point of a big audacious goal is not whether you achieve it but who you become on the way How to identify which domains of your life need attention right now: personal, wellness, professional, and financial How to set three to five process-oriented goals that are actually trackable and achievable Why tracking matters as much as setting, and the app I use to do it My five personal goals for 2026 and exactly where I am at on each one at the midpoint of the year Why being behind on your goals is not failure and how to think about it without attaching your self-worth to the outcome This framework will be taught in depth at the Dietitian Success Summit in September, and every attendee will receive the first ever Dietitian Success Planner, which is designed specifically around this process.

Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
