Increase Geographic Footprint with Shoppers Through Telehealth and Client Engagement Software
Since early 2021, the team of dietitians at Big Y® - Your Family Market has been leveraging Healthie’s telehealth and client engagement software to reach more shoppers throughout their geographic footprint, successfully increasing the impact of their modest-sized dietitian team.
The team’s reasons for choosing Healthie were simple: the platform was ready to launch quickly to meet the changing demands of Big Y® shoppers that resulted from the pandemic. It also delivers a streamlined experience for users and providers which includes scheduling, marketing, registration, surveying and customer follow-up all in one place.
At Big Y®, customers can take advantage of a variety of virtual programming options under the be well™ with Big Y® Nutrition Program to meet their needs. From individual, 15-minute Discovery Sessions that are intended to address general nutrition questions to virtual store tours, presentations, support groups and cook-alongs for both children and adults. The dietitian team has also been able to tap into an additional revenue stream by partnering with up to three sponsors for monthly Virtual Nutrition Events.
Utilizing the Healthie platform has allowed us to grow our nutrition offerings and reach more people in the communities we serve with meaningful group and one-on-one interaction. While in-person events are beneficial, virtual programming has allowed us to expand our geographical reach well beyond the handful of store locations we were able to service before. Healthie provides robust, easy-to-use and secure solutions that help streamline Virtual Nutrition Programs for retail dietitians and consumers alike.
