Kajabi helps people turn their knowledge into a sustainable online business by diversifying their revenue streams with digital products and services including (but not limited to) online courses, online communities, and coaching programs.

What is Kajabi used for?

Now that you know what Kajabi is, let’s talk about how Kajabi can help you achieve your bold business goals. We’ll break it down by the three areas Kajabi helps with: creation, management, and growth. Here we go!

Create

Kajabi equips you with a world-class product builder so you can package your knowledge and expertise into the digital product of your choosing. Our digital product selection includes:

• Online courses
• Coaching
• Podcasts
• Memberships
• Communities

For each digital product, there are customizable templates and intuitive design tools, so creating your signature product is quick and easy. Want to start from absolute scratch? We’ve got you covered there too.

Manage

Once you’ve built your product or products (you, go-getter!), you’ll need to be able to manage all of the details, including your payments, customers, and analytics. That’s why we supply you with:

• Payment gateway: Get paid on your own terms with the Kajabi payment gateway. This makes it easy to accept credit cards, debit cards, and Stripe and PayPal payments for your products.‍
• Customer Management: You’ll be able to strengthen your ties with customers and affiliates in a way that doesn’t eat up your time and energy. With this tool, tag contacts based on their behavior and then use that in your marketing, automations, and products. 
• ‍Analytics: Data alone isn’t enough to grow your business. We give you the right metrics, organized in web analytics dashboards you’ll actually use. Track your revenue, offers sold, and subscription metrics without comparing numbers from one tab to the next.

Grow

Now that you’ve built your digital product, you need to let the whole world know! Here are the tools that’ll help you grow your business:

• Website builder: Create beautiful websites that are fully integrated with everything in your business with our intuitive website builder.

• Landing page builder: With landing page templates, you can build all of the most common page types you’ll need: lead generation, capture, sales, and policy.

• Email marketing: Create marketing emails worth opening that can drive your business with our email marketing software. 

• Sales funnel: Our ready-made funnels are proven templates for various, automated funnels. This is especially useful for lead generation, sales, and webinar funnels.

Kajabi's Mission

Since our founder Kenny Rueter created Kajabi 12 years ago, we have been committed to building an economic model that works for creators, entrepreneurs, and experts of all types. 

We believe every creator should have the opportunity to own their own destiny so they can scale their impact, achieve financial independence, and realize their ambitions. We call it the direct-to-creator economy - where creators earn a living directly from the people who value their content. No longer will a middleman control their earnings.

How are we achieving this? By providing multiple paths to monetization through a full suite of digital products, we help knowledge creators build sustainable businesses immune to the limitations of social media and dependence on brand sponsorships.

But, our work isn’t done. We are always striving to make Kajabi faster and easier to use through improvements such as new content creation flows, streamlined automations, and user-friendly design and language.

Our solutions to your challenges will always align with our core mission:

Empower knowledge creators who are serious about their businesses to achieve success online.
