Top-of-the-line speakers dishing out so many "a-ha!" moments! Did you hear about the Kajabi "Impact Summit"? It was an amazing event held in Irvine, CA from April 5-7, 2019. It included the top authors, speakers, and entrepreneurs all on one stage teaching how to grow your online business. 

As a Kajabi Ambassador, it was a no-brainer that I'd attend and, boy, am I glad I did. It was an amazing experience I'll never forget!! Now that I'm back, I'm writing all about it - to share the information I gleaned and to encourage you to attend next year!

Lots of exciting new features and improvements for Kajabi this year! Did you hear about the Kajabi "Impact Summit"? It was an amazing event held in Irvine, CA from April 5-7, 2019. It included the top authors, speakers, and entrepreneurs all on one stage teaching how to grow your online business.

As the Kajabi Impact Summit began on Friday, April 5, 2019, the co-founder...

I'm in a lot of business- and entrepreneurial-related Facebook groups. If I had a dime for every time someone asked, "What's the best platform for selling courses, products, or memberships?", I'd be a rich, rich woman, yo. My answer is always "KAJABI" .

There are lots of options and I've studied them all. I've used some of them and some I haven't bothered because I could tell they'd be a waste of my valuable time. I was a data and budget analyst for many years so trust me when I tell you: my decision to use Kajabi was well-thought out. 

It's been a game-changer for my business and I know it can be for yours too: everything you need to run your digital business all in one place, on the same platform, for one price (let allll those other logins and costs go ... site hosting, video hosting, webinar hosting, email service, funnel service, and more). We all want to minimize and simplify, right? That's Kajabi.

And now's the time to take the plunge, especially if money is on your...

As we've talked about before, using Pinterest to build your blog audience - and therefore market your Kajabi products and services - is CRUCIAL, especially for female creatives. 'Cuz guess who hangs out on Pinterest? Yep. YOUR PEOPLE.

So when people visit your Kajabi blog via Google, social media posts, etc., you want to make it super easy for them to Pin your articles. I personally use a Chrome extension that allows me to easily Pin from any website - but I'm an online marketer. I doubt most users of Pinterest do that. 

Ideally, you the blogger enable a "Pin It" button on all your blog images so anyone can Pin away! As with many things on your Kajabi blog, you'll find, well, "there's no plugin for that!" Guess who found another solution? Ya' girl Erika, that's who! 

Here's how to enable a Pinterest "Pin It" button on your Kajabi blog. Iin fact, it'll work on your whole site, yee haw!

1. Go to Pinterest widget builder.

2. Set up your button the way...

Since I started as a virtual assistant many years ago, I've always offered packages of my VA hours ... until recently. Effective 02-15-19, I'm not doing them anymore and this is why.

This doesn't mean I'm not a VA anymore! It just means that I've found a much better way to serve my clients: Kajabi VIP Days. I've had options for Kajabi VIP Half-Day and Full Day in my business for years now and they're so much better for my clients than hourly packages! So I've decided to focus only on VIP days from now on. 

The Ups and Downs of Hourly Packages

How My Kajabi VA Hourly Packages Worked

What I mean by hourly packages is that clients purchase a block of my VA time - say 1, 5, 10, or 20...

Ever since the "GDPR Panic" of May 2018, we've all been getting our sites in compliance, right? One thing you may still need to add to your Kajabi website is a cookie consent banner. Basically, it let's all your visitors know that your site does use cookies and what your policies are regarding them. 

Here's a #KajabiQuickTip for an easy way to add a cookie consent banner to your Kajabi site.

1. Go to CookieConsent.Insites.com. It's open source and free. (We love free!)

2. Click the Download button.

3. Configure your cookie consent banner. Don't worry if you don't get it right the first time. You can keep going back and configuring it until it looks the way you want it to on your site. Just remember to Copy Code each time you change something. 

4. Once configured, click the Copy Code button.

5. In Kajabi, go to Settings, Site Details, scroll down to Page Scripts, and paste the Cookie Consent code. If you already have...

It was a huge decision. I analyzed, then I lost sleep, then I over-analyzed, asked friends, did more research, and finally I made the decision. In late 2016, I made the switch to running my entire online business with Kajabi. I say without hesitation that it's been the BEST decision I've made for my biz since I started it in 2006. 

There are probably 20 reasons why this is true but I've gathered 8 of the best and made a list for you. Maybe you're considering making the big switch as well and you're just not sure. I hope my list will help with your decision!

Creative entrepreneurs and coaches can really benefit from buying a feminine stock photo membership. Images for your blog, website, social media, and products are so important to get right and help to establish your branding.

Why Do I Need a Feminine Stock Photo Membership Anyway?

There are lots and lots of stock photo sites out there, which have a huge variety of images. Some of my favorites are Unsplash, Pixabay, and Pexels. I use those sites to source free images for use in general blogging, social media posts, client's sites, etc.

But for this website, I really want to appeal to my target demographic: creative entrepreneurial women. Therefore, I need 2 things that I can't get on the types of sites mentioned above.

First, I need quick and easy access to feminine, creative, office- and technology-related images; not just flat lays but some with women in them too. Second, I need "brand builder" sets of photos, which have a consistent look...

One of the most valuable pieces of the course and membership platform Kajabi is its blogging feature. If you want to improve the SEO of your Kajabi site (i.e., get it to rank higher in search engines so customers find you), blogging at least weekly and using your key words is crucial. Once you get your Kajabi blog set up, adding the ability to leave comments is also important; it increases a sense of community and is a great way to be responsive and interactive with your readers.

On your Kajabi blog, there are 2 main ways to enable Comments, i.e., to give readers the ability to leave comments on your blog posts.

1. Facebook comments
2. Disqus comments

As you see at the bottom of this post, for my ErikaFriday.com blog, I've chosen to use Facebook comments. In the "tips" at the end of this article, you'll see some of my objections to Disqus and why I don't usually use it.

However, on another site I just started, I chose to use Disqus comments instead of Facebook...
