SALES AND MARKETING PLATFORM –

VS
ConvertKit doesn’t offer helpdesk features, membership sites, built-in ecommerce, affiliate management, scheduling tools, or video hosting — all crucial to your success.
Your business isn’t basic, so why choose basic software to market it? ConvertKit can wind up costing you more than you bargained for
Save Money and Sell More Products
Using One Single Platform
Both Kartra and ConvertKit can send emails to help you generate leads. Where they differ is in features and functionality, which can take your marketing efforts to the next level.
Even ConvertKit’s most expensive plan lacks important features for running your online business. This results in users paying additional monthly fees for third-party software options to make up for ConvertKit’s shortcomings.
Meanwhile, Kartra takes care of emails, landing pages, customer support, affiliates, premium video, membership sites, checkouts, and more.
Kartra clients save money due to its EXTENSIVE features list that allows users to cancel other marketing tool subscriptions. That savings can add up to hundreds of dollars per month, a fact that’s music to the ears of creators, entrepreneurs, and small business owners.
Kartra vs ConvertKit
ConvertKit was built for creators who want an email marketing tool.
Kartra was built for marketers who want to run their entire online business from one central location.
ConvertKit will allow you to share your interests through blogs and mailings. Yet they fall behind when it comes to their limited A/B testing, limited template choices, lack of customizable fields, and a lack of test emails for autoresponders. When you add all of these limitations to their list of lacking features, you’ll wonder why you chose ConvertKit in the first place.
Kartra, on the other hand, is a user favorite for sales and marketing software. Landing pages and sales funnels are what Kartra does best. It’s the biggest reason so many people have made the switch to Kartra.
Kartra’s advanced features, like its seamless drag-and-drop page builder, done-for-you campaigns, split testing capabilities, lead tagging, branching logic, in-depth analytics, membership site creation, video hosting, helpdesk, surveys and quizzes, self-schedule calendars, digital product sales, checkout and payment capabilities — all play a role in making Kartra the most powerful option to choose for growing your online business.
Kartra Let's You:
-
Effortlessly build stunning landing pages that showcase your business in a professional manner from the start.
-
Reward your advocates, partners, and evangelists by utilizing affiliate management to automatically pay commissions each time you make a sale due to their referrals.
-
Build entire sales campaigns in record time using professionally designed done-for-you sales funnel templates created by world-class marketers and entrepreneurs.
-
Promote using Kartra’s video marketing features to get more leads, increase engagement, and maximize your sales.
-
Create a membership site to sell digital products 24/7 where loyal customers pay to access your premium content.
Limited Customization Will Limit
Your Business Growth
ConverKit has limited customization and triggers, especially for unengaged and cold subscribers.
Meanwhile, Kartra has numerous triggers, customizations, and automations to convert new prospects into customers, upsell buyers, and win-back cold subscribers.
You can give every subscriber a personalized experience with its “if-then” rules feature.
You can send your message at exactly the right time to the right subscriber using behavior-based triggers.
You can maximize every autoresponder and campaign you send with Kartra’s powerful A/B split-test feature.
Not only that, but Kartra is also far superior when it comes to both landing pages and sales funnels.
Using Behavioral Adaptive Marketing, Kartra can automatically customize any page’s content based on a subscriber’s behaviors in your list and funnels.
While ConvertKit can create landing pages, they simply aren’t on the same level as Kartra.
Create Stunning Pages and Proven Funnels
in Kartra With Just a Few Clicks
You can create landing pages, sales funnels, and email automations with ConvertKit. But their templates are basic and allow for minimal customization.
When your ConvertKit landing pages go up against competitors with larger budgets — your pages will suddenly seem inferior.
With Kartra, you’ll never experience that problem.
That’s because Kartra has more landing page templates, sales funnel templates, and email templates to choose from.
They give your business the professional look you need in a competitive marketplace.
Kartra’s templates are stunning and designed to convert. They were created for entrepreneurs who want to market their products easily.
Everything that a marketer wants to build is just a few clicks away.
When you choose one of Kartra's 26 DFY sales funnel templates, Kartra immediately creates all of the assets and connects everything for you. The automations, tagging, segmenting, checkout, and membership areas are all built for you.
Simply edit the content in your membership program, pages, and emails to suit your needs and you’re good to go!
You Need Software Designed to Automatically
Communicate With Customers
Before AND After a Sale
ConvertKit proudly states that you can sell products through their platform without building a website...which is true.
But you’ll still need software and tools to give customers the products they paid for.
You’ll need additional software that integrates with ConvertKit so your products and/or access are sent out to your customers automatically.
Once your business starts growing, you’ll also need tools that help you provide efficient customer support to your growing audience.
And that's just the start.
Can ConverKit's Limited Features
Help Your Business Scale?
At $79/mo for 3,000 subscribers, ConverKit looks like a good deal compared to Kartra.
But when you consider the additional software you’ll need to operate ConverKit, you won't be paying just $79.
You'll most likely need to purchase 2 or 3 more software options, integrate them to work together, then hope it all functions in unison as intended.
With Kartra, you’ll get everything you need to market your products. No need to duct tape third-party software options together. No need to integrate. No need to worry.
You’ll get ALL of Kartra's features for just $99/mo. Talk about a bargain!

Trusted By Marketers Worldwide
There are a lot of things to like about Kartra, specifically the absolute all-in-one platform they have. It goes far beyond just designing a website/landing page or sending an email. They cover all the bases - from websites, landing pages, email marketing/automation with sequences and tagging, funnels, simple e-commerce, digital downloads, membership sites, help desk, scheduling, forms, affiliates and now an agency solution. If you'd like to consolidate the many platforms you use, Kartra can handle 95% of everything you throw at it. Their support group on Facebook is second to none. They truly care about their people and it shows; it's like a family.

We have been doing our funnels from different platforms (Kajabi for Landing pages - as our courses are at Kajabi, Deadline Funnel, Convertkit and Webinarjam). Last January, I convinced my client to migrate our funnels to Kartra and we have seen significant changes on our conversions.
Here is a recent webinar we launched with a combination of Webinarjam and Kartra ONLY.
Webinar landing page optin rate is at 35% (huge WIN).
We are converting 10% on our OTO as the Checkout page embed is really incredible as it reduces the clicks the audience need to do.
Now, we are going to turn this into an evergreen webinar via EverWebinar and scale up the ads spent.
This would never have been possible without Kartra. Thank you so much, Kartra
Hector Yague!
Haha I am bringing all my clients to Kartra very soon!

It does everything I need, it is a basket of tools. I love baskets of tools, they make me more effective. Kartra does so much that I had to grow into the app. As time has passed and I have understood my client better Kartra has become more effective for me. I am a hair coach and have spent the last two years learning how to care for my tribe online. I purchased Kartra even before I understood all its functionalities, that is how much I can see the opportunities Kartra provides. Maybe I don't know enough, however, I feel Kartra is the absolute best app basket around. Every time I look at other apps I just keep coming back to Kartra.

Kartra is awesome for coaches/course creators/consultants and those with a need for a membership platform. The payoff once everything is set up is that it's mostly hands-off and runs itself. It's super easy to attach your payment processor(s) and create different payment options for your products. Setting up each area is accompanied by online, easy to understand instruction that even self-professed non-techies can conquer.

I had my first Kartra sale yesterday! I released my new lead magnet a couple weeks ago and this week I mentioned it a few extra times to my list (while migrating off of Convertkit and over to Kartra) plus did some extra shares on Instagram.
The lead magnet freebie has a one time 15 minute offer (tripwire basically) on the thank you page and someone bought! I can’t claim a $30,000 sale here...it was around fifty bucks. But I sure am feeling proud and excited about it! Thank you Kartra team!

Kartra is the best all-in-one solution for digital marketers. Having option forms, landing pages, automations, tagging, email sequences, products, membership areas and more all in one system means they talk to each other without external integrations. This saves me the headache of keeping track of so many web apps.
