YogaBusinessGrowthWhere do you begin starting a digital yoga business? Well, you don’t need fancy equipment like a $3,000 camera to start with, but you do need software! Lucky for you I love testing #allthesoftwares and I’ve compiled a list of the ones I think are best to set up an online yoga biz.
The 3 essential software types you need to set up an online yoga business are: video meeting software to teach classes online, a payment processor/ cart provider to take payments from your yoga students and an email service provider so you can market your classes/coaching sessions. Here are my recommendations.
Free 14 day trial. Get 20% off for life* if you sign up for a paid plan through my link. A Solo subscription includes 1 event (webinar) per month and starts at $19/m. You also get 3 meeting rooms, 3 booking links and you can add custom branding and more.
Convertkit is THE best price-quality email service provider for features like automations. A Creator account with automations and free migration starts from $9/m for up to 300 subscribers. Anndd I have a sign-up bonus if you sign up through my link!
If you offer digital downloads, subscriptions or coaching, it’s worth looking into SendOwl. I’ve used it for years – it’s so user friendly plus integrates with Stripe and Paypal, and you can offer Pay What You Can to your students. Get $30 in Sendowl credits when you sign up through my link.
Your yoga website has 2 important functions: to give information about you and what you do, and to get people to take action. Whether that action is to sign up for your email list, book a private yoga class, buy a yoga course or something else… You don’t need an elaborate website, but you do want it to function well and be very clear on what your visitor’s next best step is.
Never had any downtime since I started using Cloudways over 6 years ago. The hosting provider preferred by developers automatically gives more bandwidth if you’re experiencing a viral spike.
I’ve tried Divi, Thrive Architect and others and this is by far the best price/quality website builder to set up on top of your wordpress.org site.
