Nutritionists and dietitians · Email marketing

The client who dropped out in week three is still worth writing to.

Email marketing for a dietitian is the check-in that keeps a client on the plan, the renewal conversation before a programme ends, and the note that wakes a lapsed client. GullySales sets those sequences up with consent, keeps the wording careful rather than promotional, and reports completions and renewals.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What email marketing means

Email marketing is sending planned messages to a list of past and prospective customers who have agreed to hear from you. It suits offers, updates and staying in touch with someone who is not ready to buy yet. GullySales writes and schedules these emails and tracks who opens, clicks and enquires.

For nutritionists and dietitians

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “The third week is where the programme is won”

    Logging stops, the novelty fades and the client goes quiet. A message on the day the logging stops, rather than at the next scheduled call, is what keeps them enrolled.

  • “A renewal asked on the last day is asked too late”

    By then the client has already decided. Start that conversation a fortnight before the programme ends, with what has changed and what the next stage would cover.

  • “Corporate wellness lists need permission at the talk”

    Fifty people hear you at an office and none become clients because nobody collected an address. A sign-up at the session, with a clear reason to join, is the whole difference.

What we do

What we deliver for nutritionists and dietitians.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. A check-in schedule through the programme

    Dated messages at the points clients struggle, covering the second week slump, eating out, travel and the festival that lands mid-programme.

    Result: More clients reach the end of what they paid for.

  2. A nudge when logging stops

    An alert when a client stops recording meals, and a short message from you asking what got in the way rather than repeating the rules.

    Result: The dropout is caught in the week it starts.

  3. A renewal conversation booked before the end

    A note a fortnight before the programme closes, summarising what changed and offering the next stage with a date attached.

    Result: Renewals are discussed while the client is still engaged.

  4. A reactivation note for lapsed clients

    A message to people who stopped part way or finished long ago, sent at a point in their year that matters, with no offer attached.

    Result: Old clients come back without being chased.

  5. A consented sign-up for corporate sessions

    A sign-up form used at every office talk, with a stated reason to join and permission recorded against each address.

    Result: A session leaves you with a list you may write to.

  6. Reporting on completions and renewals

    Opens, replies, completions, renewals and reactivations from each sequence, compared with the baseline recorded before work began.

    Result: The mail is judged on clients who stay.

How the result is measured

  • Open rate
  • Click rate
  • Enquiries from email

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

What must be in place first

What a nutritionist needs in place before emailing clients.

A client list kept private
Health information is sensitive. Keep addresses in one secure record, never a shared spreadsheet, and never copy several clients into one mail where they can see each other.
Consent for each kind of mail
Under India's data protection law you should be able to show who agreed to be contacted, and for what. Record separately whether a client agreed to plan reminders, check-ins or general updates, with the date.
A sender that is the dietitian
Mail from your own name at your own domain with your qualification in the footer. Clients reply to a person, not a brand.
Segments by programme and stage
Keep clients mid-programme, clients who finished and corporate session attendees apart. Each group needs different words and different permission.
Careful wording, no medical claims
Write about habits and plans, not cures or outcomes. Rules on health claims differ by profession and change, so check with your own council before sending anything promotional.
A reply path you can keep
Replies from clients who are struggling with the plan must reach you or an assistant who can answer. Silence in the third week loses the client.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

How the email marketing work runs

  1. 1

    Understand your list

    We review who is on the list, how they got there, and how long it has been since they last heard from you.

  2. 2

    Audit past sends

    We check open and click rates from past emails to see what has and has not worked.

  3. 3

    Segment and plan

    The list is split into meaningful groups and a sending calendar is agreed.

  4. 4

    Implement content and automation

    Emails are written, scheduled and, where useful, set to trigger automatically based on behaviour.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track performance and adjust subject lines, timing and content based on what the list responds to.

Why us

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.

  • Marketing and sales, as one job

    Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

  • The person on the first call does the work

    No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.

  • A baseline before anything starts

    Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.

  • The fee in writing, split three ways

    Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.

  • No guarantees we cannot keep

    The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.

  • One office, and we say so

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Is email better than WhatsApp for check-ins?
WhatsApp for the daily nudge, because the food photographs are already there. Email for the things worth keeping: the plan, the handbook, the review summary and the renewal note. Each is good at something different.
Can we write to clients who finished months ago?
If they agreed to hear from you, yes, and keep it useful rather than promotional. A note at a point that matters to them, such as before a festival season or a year after they finished, reads as care. Weekly mail reads as spam.
Should plan documents be attached to the mail?
Send them as a password-protected PDF or a link, since diet plans relate to a client's health. Keep the mail body free of medical detail and tell the client how you will share the password, for example on WhatsApp.
Can we use a newsletter of recipes?
A short note with a recipe is fine for people who agreed to receive it, but it is not a substitute for check-ins with those on a plan. Keep general newsletters apart from plan mail, and avoid claims about what a food will do for a condition.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped after we have read your brief and spoken to you, and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
It depends on the trade, the channel and what is already in place. After we have read your brief and spoken to you, we say what we would expect to move first and how it will be measured against the baseline. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
Your brief, and a conversation. After that, access to whatever this work touches, such as your website, your accounts or your enquiry record, and time with the people who handle your enquiries.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
