About Optimising Nutrition

Optimising Nutrition is a thriving nutrition coaching community on Mighty Networks, dedicated to helping members achieve their health and wellness goals. With over 13,000 active members, the community sees hundreds of daily posts - questions about meal plans, progress updates, recipe shares, and support requests.

The community's mission is to provide science-based nutrition guidance in a supportive environment. But with rapid growth came a challenge: keeping up with moderation, content creation, and member engagement was becoming a full-time job on top of an already full-time job.

The Challenge

Before StickyHive, managing the community was overwhelming:

Sunday Scroll of Doom: Every Sunday was spent manually scrolling through hundreds of posts, looking for spam, guideline violations, and off-topic content. It took 8-10 hours just to get caught up.
Content Creation Burnout: After spending all that time moderating, there was no energy left to create engaging content. Coming up with fresh post ideas felt impossible.
Weekly Digest Nightmare: Curating the best posts, writing summaries, and formatting the weekly email digest took 3-4 hours every Friday.
Missed Violations: Despite the effort, about 20% of problematic posts slipped through. They'd surface later and require damage control.
No Personal Life: Weekends weren't really weekends anymore. There was always anxiety about what might be happening in the community.

"I was spending my entire Sunday - sometimes 10 hours - just scrolling through posts. I'd look for spam, check for guideline violations, flag off-topic content. I was exhausted before the week even started. I love this community, but I was burning out fast."

- Marty K., Community Manager

The Solution: StickyHive

After implementing StickyHive, everything changed:

AI-Powered Moderation: The Guardian Suite now flags potential violations automatically. Instead of scrolling through everything, Marty reviews only flagged content - and the AI catches things that manual review missed.
Native Post Scheduling: Content is now scheduled weeks in advance, directly to Mighty Networks. No more Zapier workarounds or manual posting.
AI Content Ideas: When content ideas run dry, the Creator Suite generates relevant suggestions based on the community's interests and trending topics.
Automated Digests: The AI curates top posts, writes summaries, and formats the weekly digest. What took 4 hours now takes 30 minutes of review.
Peace of Mind: Real-time alerts mean nothing slips through the cracks. Weekends are actually weekends again.
