THE HOLISTIC ENTREPRENEUR ASSOCIATION
PROFESSIONAL MEMBERSHIP
Ongoing business education, done-for-you marketing resources, step-by-step tech training, monthly group coaching calls, a supportive community, and much more… all to help you build your thriving wellness business.
And as a graduate of [your organization], you get three months completely free.
Every single day, thousands of people are signing up for wellness services to seek help for their pressing health challenges.
Let’s make sure they’re signing up for yours.
But Here’s The Big Issue
As a wellness professional, it is so easy to put all of your focus on strengthening your skillset as a practitioner and neglect the areas of business building and marketing.
But in order to be of service to those you are trying to help, they need to be able to find you and hire you. Creating successful business requires a plan for marketing yourself so that you can be seen.
4 Reasons Wellness Professionals Get Stuck With A Chronic Case of Hypo-Successism:
(and how to prevent them from happening to your wellness practice)
"I don't have enough clients."
When practitioners have trouble finding enough clients, it’s actually symptomatic of something deeper. The problem isn’t that they can’t find clients, it’s that they’re missing the mark on how they are positioning themselves as a practitioner. As a result of that, the messaging that they are using to try to attract clients is off, so it’s not resonating with people. As a further result of that, they likely haven’t identified the best marketing channels for their unique position in the market and likely aren’t executing on them in high enough volume. And, if they’re like many practitioners, they probably aren’t doing a great job of following up with the prospective clients they have come across.
How you can prevent this:
This can be prevented by correctly identifying your unique position in the marketplace, aligning your messaging and marketing methods appropriately, adjusting the volume and frequency of your marketing execution, and having an ongoing plan for keeping in touch with prospective clients so that they can be converted to paying clients.
"I'm not good at business, sales, or marketing."
Let me ask you this… if you were to visit another country without ever having learned the language, would it make sense to beat yourself up for not being able to perfectly and immediately understand what the native speakers around you are saying? Of course not. You haven’t learned the language yet!
This same logic holds true in business. When you don’t have a clear roadmap or a repeatable system for building your business and marketing yourself (or the education and support you need to execute these things competently and consistently), how can you blame yourself for not seeing the business growth you’d like?
When practitioners tell me they aren’t good at business, sales, or marketing, I let them know that they aren’t the problem – it’s the missing education, strategy, and ongoing execution that is.
How you can prevent this:
It’s not that you “aren’t good” or “won’t be good” at these things or that you can’t achieve success with them – it’s that you simply need to surround yourself with the right education and resources so that you can understand how they work and subsequently do them competently.
"I don't have enough time for marketing."
Studying client folders. Creating client plans. Answering client questions. Ordering supplements. Creating your website. Feeling like you should be posting on social media to promote your business but not totally sure how to do it effectively.
The list goes on and on (and on and on and on). When we’re wearing all the hats in our business, it can be easy to put marketing on the back burner (especially when we’re feeling intimidated by how to do it well in the first place!).
But the unfortunate truth is, if you don’t make marketing a priority, you don’t have a viable business. So what’s a health professional to do? Get strategic.
How you can prevent this:
You’ve got to step away from any wheels you are currently reinventing when it comes to launching, growing, and marketing a wellness business and plug into the knowledge and resources of those who’ve done it already. Take advantage of pre-assembled resources. Learn from successful practitioners to understand how they’ve leveraged the same 24 hours in a day we all have. Many hands make light work, and this holds true in building a business. Even if you’re a solo practitioner with no employees yet, you don’t have to build your business alone – nor should you.
"I'm spinning my wheels trying to get this thing off the ground."
Man, do I understand this. You reach the end of the work day and feel like you’ve been busy all day long but have barely scratched the surface of your to-do list. Or you reach the end of the month, look back, and feel that twinge of regret for not having made more progress. But the thing is, if you don’t have a clearly defined strategy and if you haven’t laid out clear, specific, measurable goals, it is far too easy to default into wheel spinning and fail to make the forward progress you want to see.
How to prevent this:
A clearly defined strategy in place that you’re following diligently, measurable goals that you’re working toward, week after week and month after month, and the support to keep you focused and accountable.
But the good news is…
Building a profitable health and wellness business doesn’t have to be so hard.
In fact, it’s easier than ever.
It simply takes learning the strategies that work and implementing them consistently. The HEA is here to support you in not just learning about business building strategies but consistently executing them with guided support, month after month so you can:
- Tap into systems that already works so that you don’t have to reinvent the wheel.
- Let go of the frustration and confusion around where to start when it comes to building your business and prepare for less stress and more forward, focused action.
- Swap the trial-and-error and guesswork for a clear, step-by-step approach to building your business in a smart and efficient way.
- Feel confident regarding what exactly you need to be working on when you sit down at your desk on a Monday morning, ready to take the next steps to move your business forward.
These outcomes are fully within reach for you and your wellness business (whether you’re starting from scratch or searching for boost for your current business).
… but, they do depend on getting the support you need to take focused, consistent, ongoing action.
The kind of support that leverages the most current marketing methods and business strategies while dodging all of those bright shiny objects that capture your attention but ultimately leave you spinning your wheels and rummaging around for another square of dark chocolate to help you make it through another frustrating day of trying to figure all of this out.
The kind of support that will help you write your to-do list for the day with confidence, knowing that the steps you’re taking are moving your business forward in a clear and focused direction toward your goals.
The kind of support that has prompted your fellow practitioners to say things like this:
If you want this kind of support, then I’d love to introduce you to the Holistic Entrepreneur Association Professional Membership.
Here’s What’s Waiting for You Inside the Professional Membership:
Masterclasses with Business Experts
Each month, we bring in business experts to teach you about a relevant and actionable strategy to move your business forward. The step-by-step Monthly Action Plans that accompany these masterclasses enable you to seamlessly implement the each of the concepts right into your business.

With a new Masterclass to dig into each and every month, you’re sure to make forward, focused, consistent progress in your business, month in and month out.
I just wanted to thank you for what you do. I feel more professional, streamlined and able to focus on what I’m truly passionate about because of what you’re doing! Thank you 🙂
Monthly Community Calls
Building a business takes dedication and ongoing action. During these live group video calls, we cover time-relevant topics for that month, such as regular financial reviews to help you stay on track with your bookkeeping, quarterly goal setting to keep you laser-focused and making progress, seasonal content and promotions planning, and guided walkthroughs for revisiting and upgrading your foundational marketing assets, such as your messaging, specific pages of your website, and more.
These live video calls are also a great opportunity to share your questions and current challenges and receive personal guidance and feedback.
Masterclasses with Practitioners,
Sharing How They Did It
Learn from successful practitioners who’ve crushed it in their business. Find out how they got started, how exactly they get clients, their favorite marketing methods, and the tools and strategies they use to run their businesses.
These practitioners bring you behind the curtain and give you an intimate look at what they did to achieve success.
I just watched the interviews in the Masterclass with successful practitioners. I thoroughly enjoyed them! I learned a lot and gleaned great ideas and direction from them. Thank you for having these and thank you for such an incredible membership website and all that you offer. I can’t say enough.
Tech Training Made Easy
The technical side of setting up your business can sometimes feel incredibly daunting and act as a frustrating bottleneck that stands between you and a smoothly running business. That’s why the HEA Professional membership also includes simple, easy-to-follow video tutorials that break down the complicated technical parts of marketing your business and walk you through every step of the process.
You’ll get:
- Tutorials for getting a website up and running quickly
- Detailed video instructions for how to set up your email service provider
- Video walkthroughs for how to design and order your own business cards through vetted and affordable professional printing services
Pre-Designed Marketing Materials
A primary way that we attract and communicate with our potential clients is through the visual aspects of our branding and marketing.
Things like our business cards, the flyers we hand out for our events, our website… all of these visual elements say something about who we are as a practitioner and as a brand – and yes, in case you didn’t realize it, you now have a brand!
The key to strong, professional, polished branding is consistency.
One of the easiest ways to ensure your branding is visually consistent is by using something called a branding board. In the Professional Membership, you’ll find five pre-designed branding boards that you can choose from, each with their own complete set of corresponding, pre-designed marketing materials.
The HEA is a wonderful organization that is designed to support Holistic Entrepreneurs with resources, tools, ideas, information, and more. My holisitic nutritional therapy practice in Redding, California has greatly benefited from this organization’s resources, and Jessica, the founder, is one of the most personable, friendly, supportive, and helpful individuals I’ve met online. You can see her true passion to help others in everything that she does. I am thanks for the inspiration, help, and support that Jessica and the HEA organization has given so freely. Elise Hawkins Nutritional Therapy is a more equipped, effective, and successful because of this association. Thanks HEA!!
Pre-Written Articles
If you have any doubt about whether or not you should be taking the time to send out a regular email newsletter to your audience, however big or small your audience may be right now, remember this:
From Experian: “For every dollar spent on email marketing, the average return is $44.25.”
So no, this is not a marketing action that you want to skip. We make it simple to do by providing you with monthly, pre-written, relevant, high-quality articles that you can use for your monthly newsletter.
Daily Curated Content for Your Social Media Platforms
Posting health-related articles and nutritious recipes on your social media accounts is a great way to keep your audience interested and engaged, but searching for them online can be time-consuming. We make this aspect of marketing your business easier by providing fresh, relevant, curated content you can easily choose from and share, that’s updated each and every day.
Plus, we provide a Social Media Essentials tutorial to help you understand how you should be using social media, how often you should be posting, and which platforms you should be using.
Jessica has created an incredible resource for budding holistic entrepreneurs. Upon graduating from the NTA, I had a lot of enthusiasm for starting my business, however I didn’t know where to start, especially with my website. Jessica has been incredible in making step-by-step videos to follow.
I am so happy with the way my website looks now, and I am so excited to utilize the social media and marketing resources available with the holistic entrepreneur site. Jessica is friendly and goes above and beyond consistently for her users. I can’t recommend HEA enough!
Pre-Designed Social Media Images
In addition to providing curated health-related articles and recipes that you can share on your social platforms, we also provide a monthly social media pack with ready-made social media images to download and brand as your own.
These images and their accompanying tips and quotes provide an eye-catching and powerful way to engage your followers and grow your social audience.

Meet the Founder
Hey there, I’m Jessica Pantermuehl.
(I know… it’s German. It’s pronounced PON-ter-meal.)
Just like you, I’ve been in the trenches as a wellness professional. Throughout the last decade, I’ve run my own practice as a functional nutritional therapy practitioner, served as the Head of Nutrition Counseling for an integrative medical center, and been a paid wellness speaker.
A few years ago, I shifted my practice to an online course business model to make more time for teaching marketing at the Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine and the Nutritional Therapy Association, and to dedicate myself to the Holistic Entrepreneur Association.
I started the Holistic Entrepreneur Association because I truly believe that holistic practitioners can change the world by helping people claim autonomy over their own health and that together, we can shift the paradigm of healthcare towards a prevention-based, integrative approach. But frankly, the major problem is that wellness professionals often don’t learn enough about how to actually run a successful wellness business. And to make that paradigm shift a reality, we need a lot of successful wellness professionals!
The HEA is here to do exactly that - for you, the functional, integrative, holistic professional. It’s here to provide business and marketing education, inspiration, and a step-by-step roadmap for launching, growing, and scaling your practice. It’s here to turn business confusion into clarity, uncertainty into forward progress, and fear into effective action so that together, we can shift the paradigm.
With love and support,
You Have Questions? We Have Answers.
What happens when my three free months are up?
If you’ve decided you’d like to continue your membership, then great! You don’t have to do anything. You’ll simply be enrolled in whichever plan you chose when you signed up (monthly or annual).
If you’d prefer to cancel your membership, no worries! Simply cancel before your free three months are up and you won’t be charged a cent. Simply head over to your member profile and select “Manage Your Membership”. From there, you’ll be able to cancel your membership (and you can also head over there anytime to see when your free three months are up).
Who is the Professional Membership best suited for?
There are three types of holistic professionals that are the best fit for the Professional Membership:
1. You’re just getting started and feeling overwhelmed with where to start, how to bring in your first client, and how to get your ducks in a row with organizing and building your business.
2. You’ve been in business for a bit, but aren’t seeing as many clients as you’d like. You’re craving direction and additional support for marketing your business and bringing in more clients.
3. You have a profitable business but would like additional marketing support, ongoing business education, and a community of fellow practitioners to bounce new ideas off of and to stay current with best practices in business and marketing.
Where does the membership take place?
You’ll have access to the membership and the materials in an online platform. Our community forum is conducted within a private Facebook group. Once you sign up for your membership, you can log in to the platform at any time from anywhere in the world. The membership platform works beautifully on mobile, tablet, and on your computer.
I'm not sure that I'm quite ready to start my business. Can I defer my 3 months of access?
You’re certainly welcome to defer! However, please note that you’ll be locking in whatever the current rates are at the time you activate your free three month trial.
Right now, it’s $20/month or $200/year to continue your membership after your free three months come to an end. It doesn’t matter if prices increase in the future – you’ll always be grandfathered into those rates if you keep your membership active, as those are the rates you locked in when you signed up for your free three months.
Can I cancel at any time?
Yes, you may cancel your membership at any time. There are no fees associated with canceling or any other weird hidden fees.
I have another question that wasn't listed here, who should I contact?
You’re welcome to reach out to our team directly at support@holisticentrepreneurassociation.com with any other questions. I can’t wait to welcome you into the Professional Membership community!
The HEA Professional Membership is the ongoing support you’ve been looking for to launch, grow, and scale your business.
