Building a Luxury, Nationwide Meal Delivery Service with Julie Nguyen, Co-Founder and CEO of Methodology

“I believe that the way we eat is one of the things that affects our overall health and quality of life more than anything else,” shares Julie Nguyen, the co-founder and CEO of Methodology, a luxury meal delivery service that’s all about clean eating and sustainability. Julie shares how her own struggles with health led her to realize the power of food as medicine, sparking the idea for Methodology—a business that blends wellness with convenience.What makes Methodology stand out in the crowded meal prep world? It’s the Michelin-Star quality meals that are designed to be both nutritious and genuinely enjoyable. Julie talks about how they’ve nailed this balance, from the top-tier ingredients they use to the beautifully designed, reusable packaging that reflects their commitment to sustainability. But how do you grow a business like this without sacrificing what matters most? Julie credits mentorship and community support as the key to scaling her business while staying true to her values. Her story is a reminder that when you build something with passion and purpose, you can create not just a successful business, but one that makes a real difference in people’s lives.Quotes“We still rely primarily on social media and influencers to grow and the reason why it really works for us is because our product truly is differentiated. There are hundreds of meal prep services in America, but they are all playing in that $15 price range. And we are $10 to $15 more expensive than that. The reason why only we are doing it and the others aren’t is because if you are going to charge that price, you need to deliver that level of value, which is very hard to do.” (16:44 | Julie Nguyen)“I named the business ‘Methodology’ because I believe that the way we eat is one of the things that affects our overall health and quality of life more than anything else.” (19:49 | Julie Nguyen)“Give yourself way more time than you think you’ll need to achieve your goals. When we don’t give ourselves enough time, we approach our problems with a desperation that leads to making decisions that deliver short-term results rather than long-term results.” (42:32 | Julie Nguyen)“We know how to do every job at our business extremely well. We are so in the weeds, like anyone who directly reports to us, I could take over their job and do it at least as well as they could.” (43:35 | Julie Nguyen) Connect with Julie Nguyen:http://www.instagram.com/joolieshmooliehttps://www.gomethodology.com/Waitlist for Dear FoundHer...
