It's so refreshing to hear someone with real interest in the client, making their life simple, and connecting without any up-tight market-speak. Humour and stiring are lost arts that are fun to see in a promo. Very cool.
I am seriously considering Podia, thanks for the video. It was a bit fast, but I can always watch it again (and again). Besides, I believe your support is excellent?!!
Currently looking for offers in the field of online courses and seeing Podia and how you guys approach people is so natural and good, will set up a plan with you quite soon :) One of the big pros btw!
We have heard about Podia for a while now, today we decided we'll start building up a courses and this is just what we were looking for. A place to communicate with our customers, keep in touch with them and easy-to-use interface to sell our content.
I am a beauty therapist, I would like to create a course on how to manicure like a professional, see how it goes then hopefully do another one on how to run a successful salon
This looks very nice and maybe a solution to my issue with Squarespace, with having only 300mb max digital downloads it's killing my creativity :( I want to create FULL complete online courses that are more complete than I can do with any of my youtube videos :)
That sounds awesome! Where are you in the process of putting it together? Is there anything you're stuck on or trying to figure out in the course creation process?
Will you guys ever allow further customization/editing for designing sales pages? I am so ready to switch over to you from ClickFunnels, but the biggest strength of ClickFunnels for me is the amount of customization I have in terms of page design. For example, ClickFunnels templates can look terrible, so my staff are able to design high quality assets in Sketch or Adobe XD and then import these assets into ClickFunnels, which results in a super high quality sales / landing page.
@@PodiaTV I love any kind of cupcakes as long as they are quality. No whipped cream topping. That is cheating and taste weak. Only quality frosting that taste smooth. No sugar crystals just hanging around in there. That is sloppy.
If I create a digital download is it possible for me to add that link to my website so that when customers click on the digital product to purchase it redirects them to Podia for the download?
Yes. If you have a Podia account and create a digital download, you can create a sales page for your digital download on your Podia site and link to that. Feel free to hit up our support chat if you need someone to walk you through how to do that.
“Memberships” We only get ONE membership site per subscription. Could you consider expanding on this? We are looking to talk to different target market groups vis a vis the online courses to be made available.
What kind of community forum do you offer for members? This is where I see most course/membership sites fail. often they just try to copy facebook or only allow comments and this isn't effective and is difficult to navigate. A traditional forum model would be better, with proper topics, titles on posts, indications of where unread posts are hidden, at least basic text editing etc.
Its not quite clear how this works. Is this something I upload to my wordpress site? Or does it operate separately with a link from my site? Does it fit in with elementor? Do I still have to have a money management application like woocommerce?
Thank you for the overview. One question: Which of the features that you talked about are NOT included in the "Mover" Plan? And: What is the difference concerning payment possibilities between the MOVER and the SHAKER plan? Thank you in advance.
Technology is so far forward for me but I do like the idea, I'm a sole Trader who would live to expand my services through tutorials as I have clientele listings reaching 300+ . I'm not selling goods but a service in health & wellness, can Podia be a helpful tool for my business?
Looking into this platform. Let’s say I build everything out and can’t keep up with the payments. Does everything I built stay in the cloud or does it disappear; will I have to rebuild everything once I can continue payments?
Thank you Ben. I just subscribed to your channel here. I'm wondering if you might have some tips for me to consider. I'm trying to figure out which platform will work best for our needs. I'm setting up site for a friend who's award winning painter and teacher. I will be handling all the technical aspects of his community and course offerings. He has thousands of followers on socials. Many of his followers are asking for ways to pay him for lessons. We'd like to establish a single website for people to be monthly subscribers for both live and recorded lessons. It looks like Podia might be able to cover most if not all of our needs but I'm wondering about the community aspect. We'd like for subscribers to be able to communicate with us and each other. Do you have any tips I should consider or other videos you've done that could help me make an informed decision? Thanks again for your help.
If I create a video library, and allow access to paying subscribers, are the videos hosted and played within Podia itself? If not, then using a service like vimeo or youtube makes them non exclusive, and that defeats the aim of creating the membership in the first place. Looking forward to your answer as I am liking much of what I see as I examine Podia.
Thank you for the question. We use a video hosting service called Wistia so all of your video content is protected and not available through another service. So yes, essentially all of your videos would be hosted and played within Podia 😊
Podia Thank you. I asked the question on your website too. With the delays in response right now, I received a few answers from members of your team. I will get some material together, and no doubt by taking the 14 day trial when ready. Will watch more of your videos to be better prepared to make best use of the trial period.
@@encouragemeonline2350 Hey man. Cant u do that on Ytube ... by setting videos to "unlisted" (or is that "private")? Then ppl have to get the video "address" from you.
I ordered a course through Podia. When watching the chapters, you are forced to hit "Next" after every chapter, and then "Play" to start the next video. This is incredibly time consuming if the creator used short chapters. How can I just make it autoplay through everything?
Thank you for the feedback and sorry for not responding sooner. I'll pass your comment along to our support and development teams and see if there's a solution.
@@PodiaTVPlease DO NOT take away this feature. One of the reasons I signed up for podia was because I WANT my customers to have to push "next", regardless of how short the chapter. Otherwise, they will turn it on, go about some chores and not truly listen. Everyone's a multi-tasker in 2020.
I have not found it easy to get answers 24/7 from Podia and in fact it makes me want to ask where you physically are... Wanting to give you a try. I hope to get response on this...
Hello! 👋 Ben, here. I’d be happy to answer your questions if I can, or point you to one of our amazing support team members. How are you hoping to serve your customers with Podia?
Talked to our support team... here's their answer. Let me know if this helps or if you have any other questions. "If it’s a JS snippet type thing, they could: help.podia.com/en/articles/1715969-adding-third-party-apps-to-supercharge-your-podia-store"
That's a great idea. Not currently, but our support team has logged the suggestion. In the meanwhile, would it work to use the pin feature to strategically pin certain posts toward the top of the page?

Can't agree more!
i was just gonna say , this guys had my attention because he felt human !

OMG. had to click through to RUclips to comment on that last bit singing 'the wheels on the bus...' LOVE IT. more. more. more... hahaha.
Thanks, Ben! Though when I looked to me left, all I saw was a dog on my couch....
HAHAHAHA :)
Wow! This is SO HUGE! My goodness! I would ABSOLUTELY put my courses here instead of UDEMY. Man, I love this!
Yes, Podia is an awesome platform...I looked at many platforms before choosing Podia. Total game changer for me!
We have heard about Podia for a while now, today we decided we'll start building up a courses and this is just what we were looking for. A place to communicate with our customers, keep in touch with them and easy-to-use interface to sell our content.
Loving it! Will try. Also would love that includes Spanish soon :)
WOW Ben thank you so much for this very informative and AWESOME overview.
Wow! Great overview, thank you so much.
I'm excited to become part of the Podia platform .

Informative and funny! 😂
Glad you enjoyed it 😄
No casserole? 😭 How about a cupcake?
Thanks for the great quick overview. 💕
You're welcome! What kind of cupcakes are your favorite? I like 'em all as long as they're 60% cake and 40% frosting ;)

lol i like these funny puns :P this guys a genius
Amazing Video Ben! Thank you so much for posting.
Can Podia also allow course creators to do free courses as well?
Do you have some video to explain Step by step😭

Can my services be branded with my company Logo?

If I understand well, we create courses then we have to send emails to potential customers. Am I right?
Does it have annoying ads..?
Why do I need 2 products to be able to upsell

How is this better from click funnels or Shopify ?..
Looking into this platform. Let’s say I build everything out and can’t keep up with the payments. Does everything I built stay in the cloud or does it disappear; will I have to rebuild everything once I can continue payments?
Quick question, is it anyway to give certain students discounts or to waive course fees?
What is that background music called? Title and artist please.

how to create a live course?
Hello, is my website via Podia fully customizable ? For exemple adding infographic show, integrate youtube video in the copyright page etc ?
What about revenue sharing with Podia? I was looking for course with co-teachers. Thanks
hello, great video, thank you. Could you tell me if Podia landing/ web pages are membership protected?

this or teachable? I can't decide!
There is no "edit storefront" option. There is only "edit site"
Nice catch. Yes. We updated our terminology so storefront = site.

I'm more of a cookie guy, but to each their own 🍪
My site is international do you have a translate facility?
Does Podia have a mobile app ?
do you have bot feature or ability to embed own bot (landbot/quriobot) on our page?
