From Our Clients

AICR

We brought in the Nutrition on Demand team to help us with a rebranding project for one of our programs. Shelley and her team planned and implemented a comprehensive process that included targeted data gathering, key informant interviews, and information analysis to inform our rebrand goals and marketing needs. The amount and quality of the data exceeded our expectations, giving us valuable information useful beyond the rebrand. Their creative approach and suggestions helped our team come to a clear consensus for a powerful rebrand outcome. The NOD team came to the table with enthusiasm, high energy and professionalism. We could not be more pleased with their approach, their work style and the project outcome. We would definitely use their services again!

Shelley Maniscalco and her team of professionals have supported the Food Marketing Institute’s (FMI) health and wellness program of work for more than three years. The scope of projects range from research designing and writing best practice guides for implementing a family meals program in food retail, to revaluating and redesigning our family meals consumer website, to designing strategies and a stakeholder engagement plan to elevate the importance of family meals in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. All projects taken on by Nutrition on Demand are executed with the highest standards of quality and are delivered on time and on budget.

We have contracted Nutrition on Demand to represent the Food Marketing Institute (FMI) to key external stakeholders. For the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics’ Food & Nutrition Conference & Exposition, the team helped us to brainstorm and plan our exhibit booth to promote National Family Meal Month to dietetic professionals. Shelley and her team of registered dietitians also helped us staff the booth. Due to their exceptional outreach skills, we received almost 400 contacts for our program. Nutrition on Demand is an excellent resource for any organization looking to enhance their nutrition and health strategies and programs.

The funny thing about listening to the Dietary Advisory Committee deliberations for a day and a half is that it gives one perspective—particularly when one has been at it for (ahem) close to 20 years! I’ve found that being in the room is a different experience...

What EVERYONE should know about the Dietary Guidelines for Americans…

As someone who has been an avid student of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) from the outside, and then on the inside while working with the USDA Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion for 7 years, I was disturbed and disappointed to read the WaPo article...

Why I love OrangeTheory (and think you probably would too)!

by Shelley Maniscalco | May 3, 2019 | Blog, Fitness

I have consistently been doing the OTF workout since January 2019 (and by consistently, I mean 8 times per month—because that’s what I pay for). Unlike other “gym” workouts I have tried in the past, I have found that I don’t dread going or feel like I have to drag my...
