Recommendation on business platforms

Technology and Tools
1

I have a company that provides resources to the manufacturing industry, providing free content in the form of podcasts, blog, and newsletter. I also sell some in person workshops and trainings, merch, and sell sponsorships and ads. I would like to also have a membership area that has full extended versions of the podcasts and some ebooks and online courses. Is there one platform that can host all of it?

I have looked at Kajabi, not sure it fits my needs.

Sure! So, if you want to set up a cool all-in-one eCommerce site with a built-in Learning Management System (LMS), you can totally use WordPress. Just start by creating a WordPress site and add WooCommerce for your online store. Then, pick a WordPress LMS plugin that fits the features you need for your courses.

Just a heads up, though: you’ll need some solid WordPress skills to make sure everything runs smoothly together!

Honestly, I thought Kajabi was the best fit given your requirements. Anyway there are other options; but you might find you need to integrate some third parties for in-person ticket sales (i.e. EventBrite). You could look at Podia and Circle.

If you’re looking for a simple solution. You can try this using Wordpress plugins

  1. Member press for membership Management ( You can also gate contents based on membership level )
  2. Learndash for content distribution
  3. Any payment gateway for E-commerce

We used to do a lot of this for coaches for few years

Comprehensive solution:

  1. Build or customise a existing LMS platform to host your contents
  2. Handle tiered customisable membership tiers
  3. Use Stripe for PG on E-commerce

Both has advantages and if you’re just testing the waters would recommend WP option. If it’s for a established business, custom solution is preferable.

We have experience handling both, feel free to DM if you need any help.
