As a Compatibility Consultant, guiding your clients through the initial steps in helping and working with them is crucial for their understanding and trust. From collecting samples to interpreting results, every step should be clear and informative. This article outlines the process and provides tips on how to educate and inform your clients effectively.
The Initial Steps with a Client
- Sample Collection: The journey begins with collecting a hair or saliva sample from the client. Ensure the sample is collected hygienically and securely. Explain to your client why this sample is essential for the analysis.
- Sending Samples and Paperwork: Once the sample is collected, send it along with the relevant paperwork to our Compatibility Centre for analysis. Make sure all details are correctly filled out to avoid any delays.
- Analysis and Report Generation: At the Compatibility Centre, the sample is analysed to identify the foods and products that are incompatible with the client, causing discomfort, and those that promote health and wellbeing. A detailed report is then generated.
When and How to Recommend the Compatibility Program
Recommending the Compatibility Program to your clients requires sensitivity and understanding of their unique needs. Here’s how you can approach it:
- Identify the Right Moment: Introduce the Compatibility Program during a consultation when discussing the client’s health concerns. Highlight how identifying compatible and incompatible foods and products can enhance their wellbeing.
- Personalised Recommendation: Tailor your recommendation based on the client’s specific issues. For instance, if a client suffers from digestive problems, explain how the program can identify foods that may be causing discomfort.
- Explain the Benefits: Emphasise the benefits of the Compatibility Program, such as personalised health insights, improved wellbeing, and prevention of illness. Use real-life examples or success stories to illustrate the program’s effectiveness.
Answering Common Client Questions
Clients are likely to have questions about the Compatibility Program. Here are some common questions and how to answer them:
- How does the Compatibility Program work?
The program involves analysing a hair or saliva sample to identify foods and products that are either compatible or incompatible with your body. This helps us create a personalised health plan for you.
- Is the sample collection process safe?
Yes, the process is completely safe and non-invasive.

Typically, it takes about 2-3 weeks for the analysis to be completed and the report to be generated. We will notify you as soon as the results are ready.

Educating and Informing Your Clients
Effective communication is key to ensuring your clients understand the Compatibility Program and its benefits. Here are some tips:
- Simplify the Process: Break down the steps into simple, easy-to-understand terms. Use visual aids or diagrams if necessary.
- Provide Educational Materials: Offer brochures, videos, or links to resources that explain the program in detail. This helps clients feel more informed and confident.

Interpreting Results and Developing a Care Plan
Once the report is ready, it’s time to interpret the results and develop a care plan. Here’s how:
- Review the Report: Go through the report with your client, explaining each section in detail. Highlight the incompatible and compatible foods/products.
