The right tools for the job.
Don't worry. I get it.
One of the biggest obstacles to aspiring INFOpreneurs looking to sell what’s in their head is the technology involved.
I hear it a lot…”I’m not techy enough…I don't know where to start...and on and on...”
I get it.
But there’s literally NO reason to let fear of technology stop you from accomplishing your goals.
Especially when we’re living in a time when every single tool we need is at our fingertips and easy to use!
Here are the tools you need to launch your online business!
Kajabi - Website, Membership, Email, Pages
Kajabi is the foundation of your online business. With this one tool you can build a website, online course, landing pages, email, and everything else you need to run a successful online business. Don't try and cobble your tech stack together. You'll end up with more work at a higher cost. Take my word for it and go with Kajabi from the start!
SAMCART - Shopping Cart
Samcart is my choice for the most important part of my business: cart and payments. This software is what I trust to take payments, manage orders, and handle subscriptions. It also has a great page builder for sales pages and some basic product delivery options. It also integrates natively with Kajabi, Convertkit, and many other software platforms.
SamCart has great support, rock-solid tech, and advanced features that make it AMAZING to use like dunning (payment recovery), capturing abandoned cart emails for followup (literally adds money back into your account…), payment plans, order bumps, upsells and upsell funnels, product delivery, native integration with Kajabi and Convertkit, FB pixel tracking, and more…gosh I love it.
I recommend you watch Brian Moran's FREE One Page Funnel webinar and purchase that offer. Not only do you get Samcart but also the best training on how to get your online business off the ground that I've ever seen.
ConvertKit - Email
ConvertKit can take your email game to a WHOLE NEW LEVEL as an easy to use yet super powerful email tool. You can collect leads, build automated sequences to nurture them, and segment your list to serve your customers. The bonus is that ConvertKit is also very budget friendly!
This has been my choice for email since the beginning and I've never found a better option. Highly recommended!
ThriveCart - Checkout/Cart
ThriveCart is an incredibly useful tool to have in your online business belt! It's a checkout/shopping cart and affiliate management tool that allows you to create high converting sales pages in minutes. Plus, it's a one time fee versus an ongoing one. You can sell anything with ThriveCart including: physical/digital products, coaching, subscriptions, and more!
Clickfunnels - Landing Pages
If you’re not using Kajabi then you’ll need a basic landing page and funnel builder. For this I recommend Click Funnels. There are a lot of options but Clickfunnels is the industry leader for a reason. It’s kind of a jack of all trades master of none product that has everything an online entrepreneur needs. I like to use CF to test new ideas and workflows. Because it does a little of everything it’s perfect for this.
Easy Webinar - Webinars
I’ve run my webinars with Easywebinar since the beginning and it’s been great. There’s a definite learning curve and it’s not pretty (it’s honestly butt ugly...haha) but it’s the most powerful and cost-effective solution on the market IMHO. They offer great tagging features so you can segment users and integrate flawlessly with ConvertKit and many other platforms for customer follow-up.
ZOOM - Meetings
For online meetings or coaching calls, ZOOM is the cream of the crop. It’s easy to use - works really well - and it’s affordable to host meetings! There’s even a free option to start. I use it for all of my one on one and group coaching sessions.
