Is Kajabi Worth It in 2025? My Unfiltered Review for Consultants, Coaches & Creators - Episode 4

In this episode of The Content Beach, we’re talking all things Kajabi — the platform I use, love, and recommend to most of my clients. But let’s be clear: this is not a paid endorsement (yet 👀). I’m giving you the honest, slightly chaotic breakdown of why Kajabi works for coaches, consultants, and digital creators — and when it doesn’t.

You’ll hear how I use it to simplify my systems, how it compares to platforms like WordPress, Squarespace, and Wix, and why I believe Kajabi is one of the most powerful tools for content monetisation when used with intention.

 In This Episode:

• A completely unsponsored, real-world breakdown of Kajabi in 2025

• Advantages of using an all-in-one system vs. stacking random tools

• Why your email marketing, podcast, downloads, and course can live in one home

• What Kajabi can’t do well (especially for ecommerce or advanced community)

• The pricing breakdown — and how to decide if it’s worth the monthly cost

• My personal recommendations on plans, product types, and automation

• Why design limitations aren’t a dealbreaker (and how to work around them)

• Real talk on cost vs. time trade-offs when managing your platform solo

Features Covered:

• Website builder

• Landing pages + lead forms

• Email marketing + automations

• Podcast hosting (public & private)

• Courses, coaching, communities, newsletters

• Downloadables (free and paid products)

Kajabi Isn’t For You If:

• You're building a full ecommerce store with physical products

• You hate all-in-one systems and prefer stitching tools together

• You’re only looking at the cost, not the time saved

• You expect it to be a design playground like WordPress with Elementor

Key Takeaways:

Kajabi isn’t just a platform. It’s a clarity tool.
If you want to launch offers, build systems, and actually get seen, it gives you everything you need — without the Zapier headaches.

It’s not cheap, but it’s clean.
When used right, Kajabi can save you time, bandwidth, and tech overwhelm — especially if you’re a coach or consultant focused on delivery.

You still need strategy.
Kajabi won’t think for you. But if you’ve got the vision, it can carry the load beautifully.
