Can Kajabi Really Replace My Website, Email App and Course Platform?
If you’re a coach juggling too many platforms: WordPress for your website, ConvertKit for your emails, Teachable for your courses, Calendly for bookings, Zapier for automations …you’re not alone.
Most coaching businesses are stitched together with a dozen tools and a lot of duct tape.
And you may be wondering: “Can Kajabi really replace all of this?”
Short answer: Yes.
Long answer: Yes, with the right strategy, setup and design.
Let’s break it down.
What Kajabi Can Replace in Your Coaching Business
Kajabi isn’t just a course platform. It’s an all-in-one business hub built specifically for people who teach, coach, and create transformation.
Here’s what Kajabi can replace (with just one login):
| Tool You Use Now | Replaced by Kajabi? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| WordPress, Squarespace, Showit | ✅ Website builder | Fully hosted website with custom domains |
| ConvertKit, Mailchimp | ✅ Email marketing | Automations, sequences, segmentation |
| Teachable, Thinkific | ✅ Courses + digital products | Host, sell, and deliver |
| Calendly | ✅ Booking pages | With workarounds or Zapier integration |
| Stripe / PayPal | ✅ Payments | Built-in checkout pages |
| Linktree / Leadpages | ✅ Landing pages | Lead magnets, opt-ins, and waitlists |
| Zapier automations | ✅ Some automations | Built-in workflows, tags, conditional logic |
| Vimeo / YouTube embeds | ✅ Video hosting | Unlimited video with Wistia integration |
So yes, Kajabi can replace 6–10+ platforms. That means fewer tools, fewer fees and far less tech overwhelm.
“But Kajabi Costs More Monthly…”
Yes, Kajabi plans start around €120–€160/month.
But when you break it down, you’re probably already spending that (or more) across:
Website hosting
Email platform
Course platform
Booking tool
Automation platform
Landing page builder
Payment processing tools
And don’t forget the time cost of managing all these systems separately.
Coaches come to me saying, “I just want one platform where I can run everything and feel proud to send people to.” Kajabi is that - when it’s set up with strategy and design in mind.
The Key: Kajabi Alone Isn’t Enough
Here’s where most coaches get stuck:
They sign up for Kajabi thinking it’ll solve everything, but end up overwhelmed with:
Clunky templates
Generic-looking sites
Unclear navigation or offers
Pages that don’t convert
Branding that doesn’t reflect their coaching style
Kajabi gives you the tools. What makes it work is smart design, clear messaging, and a strategy that guides your ideal clients through the experience.
That’s where I come in.
Kajabi Works Best When You Pair It With:
✅ Brand Strategy : So your voice, values, and vibe are clear and consistent
✅ Custom Design : So your Kajabi site reflects your professionalism, not a default template
✅ Conversion-Focused Layouts : So every page (home, about, program, lead magnet) is built with purpose
✅ Offer Clarity : So people know exactly what they’re saying yes to
✅ Email Automations : So you can nurture your list on autopilot
When it’s all aligned, Kajabi becomes the engine behind your coaching business — not just another tool you have to manage.
