Claim the Spotlight! Dietitians on YouTube & Podcasts!
By Melissa Dobbins | September 22, 2015 | 5 Comments
Were you at FNCE in Nashville? If so, you may have attended my session: Claim the Spotlight! Beyond Traditional Media: Videos, Podcasts & Self-Publishing. I presented with Julie Beyer and we had so much fun inspiring our audience to get their voices out there! You may have heard about the “Queen Karaoke” we did at the end!
The media landscape is evolving, providing YOU, the RDN, with new opportunities you can use to highlight your expertise while promoting RDNs as THE nutrition experts. Videos, podcasts, and self-published books are three exciting alternatives to traditional media that allow you to embrace your inner “celebrity” and gain valuable exposure.
Check out the video “starter kit” and some RDN YouTube Channels and Podcasts here!

My pleasure, Elizabeth! I’m so glad you found it helpful! I have other free content, videos and downloadable pieces that can help dietitians boost their communication skills under the “How To” series for dietitians category on my blog. Let me know if you have any questions and best of luck to you! I hope you have great success with your videos!
