What Is Kajabi?
Kajabi is an all-in-one platform for creating, marketing, and selling online courses, coaching programs, and memberships. It includes a website builder, email marketing, sales pipelines, and basic webinar/event features.
Kajabi is loved by course creators for its polished course delivery experience. But when it comes to webinars — specifically webinar funnels designed to sell — it falls significantly short.
