SOFTWARES

These are the softwares you will need to run your membership business.

NAMECHEAP.COM

This is the best place to purchase the domain name for your company. All the places you can buy domains are about the same prices. The reason we use Name Cheap is because it is super simple to use.

It is by far the our favorite. Other companies interface is not as friendly and require some understanding of tech. NameCheap also plays really nice with Google Workspace, WordPress, Kajabi, and everything else needed for your business.

LEARN MORE

GOOGLE WORKSPACE

The first purchase you need to make is a Google Workspace Account. It cost $12 per month the last time we checked. It comes with UNLIMITED Google Drive Storage which you will need.

You get a business YouTube Channel. Most importantly you get to create your own professional email address.

It will look like this [email protected]

LEARN MORE

SITEGROUND HOSTING

At this point we have tried all of the hosting companies. There are only two that we really love. SiteGround is awesome because of their customer support.

We have never had an issue that was not addressed immediately. Their user interface is top notch and so simple to use.

Their cloud hosting plans are a game changer for website speed and reliability.

LEARN MORE

KAJABI

Kajabi is where you will host your membership and some of your website pages. We use Kajabi because out of all the LMS platforms available they have the simplest to use interface. They also can handle the thousands of members you will have.

Kajabi is also priced better than all the others for what you get. You will not need all the bells and whistles that come with the other platforms. Kajabi does one things really well and that is memberships.

ACTIVE CAMPAIGN

Other than your actual product itself your CRM (Customer Relationship Management) Software is THE MOST IMPORTANT piece of your business.

This is how most of the communication is done with your customers, it is how you email them, it is what you use to set up automations and workflows, it is how you segment and tag customers and potential customers.

We have tried all of them and NO OTHER CRM compares to the power of ActiveCampaign.

It is worth every penny you spend on it and will give you the ability to scale to 7 and 8 figure levels without changing softwares.

LEARN MORE

THRIVECART

I am just going to answer the question everyone asks...

"Why do I need a cart software when Kajabi can take payments?"

I love Kajabi but they are great at one thing... Memberships.

ThriveCart is a one time payment purchase for the best cart software there is. It handles everything in your checkout process and does it really well. It also integrates perfectly with Kajabi.

Kajabi does not do evergreen countdown timers for sales. ThriveCart does. This is EXTREMELY important in the sales funnel process.

LEARN MORE

ZAPIER

There are two options for the software that connects all your workflows together. They are Zapier and Pabbly Connect.

Zapier is significantly easier to use than Pabbly Connect. If you are not tech savvy at all use Zapier.

 

Pabbly is a one time purchase. Zapier is a membership. We use Zapier for everything.

Pabbly will get the job done but it is more difficult to use.

LEARN MORE

PABBLY CONNECT

 

Pabbly Connect does the exact same thing as Zapier but you only make one lifetime payment to use the software. 

We have worked out a great deal for this software for you. The link below will give you access to it. 

If you have any tech skills at all we reccomend Pabbly Connect.

We have also made a course inside TCC U to show you how to use it for what is needed in your membership site.

LEARN MORE

CANVA PRO

Since you are a teacher I am sure you know what Canva is. For those of you that do not. It is the most user friendly image, video, gif, logo, and anything else you can think up creation and editing software ever made!

We love Canva! You will too!

You will need a paid plan to get access to the tools you will need it for with ad creation and what not.

 

LEARN MORE

CAMTASIA

When you make your onboarding videos for your members, blog post videos, and videos for anything else we love to use Camtasia.

Camtasia is a video editing software that anyone can use. There is no tech savviness required :)

It is super simple to use!

Camtasia is owned by TechSmith and they have many products. Just make sure to choose Camtasia on the site.

LEARN MORE

DROPBOX

Google Drive is nice and you get a bunch of storage with your Google Workspace Account.

However, Dropbox is my go to. I have stored all of my business files in my Dropbox account since day 1.

I do this for two reasons.

1.) Dropbox is far easier to use than Google Drive when it comes to organizing, accessing, and downloading your files.

2.) Dropbox is integrates with far more softwares. I have had some serious issues with Google Drive on many occasions. I have never had an issue with Dropbox.

I always have everything backed up in two places. Dropbox and Google Drive.

 

LEARN MORE

CLICKFUNNELS 1.0

ClickFunnels 1.0 is used on all of our sites. We love it because it is so simple to use and build landing pages in minutes.

You can add countdown timers to your sales pages to create scarcity which Kajabi cannot do.

You will see ClickFunnels built pages on MathTeacherCoach.com and iTeachly.com

This software is a big reason we were able to scale to 7 figures so quickly.

Please note there are two different versions of the ClickFunnels software. We used version 1.0 for our two sites. 

Now ClickFunnels has a software very similar to Kajabi called ClickFunnels 2.0. It has FAR more features than Kajabi but it is slightly more difficult to use. 

LEARN MORE

DEADLINE FUNNEL

Deadline Funnel makes it so you can create scarcity in the sales you run. 

You can give your potential customers real deadlines to join you membership without manually doing everything your self.

Once you have a lot of members it would be impossible to do this yourself. 

This is a way to automate the whole sales process. Doing this at the begining of your membership creation will take away a lot of headaches later on. 

We will do much more training on sales and marketing later on in the course.

TAILWIND APP

Tailwind is a powerful social media post scheduling software that can post to Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest. We have tried them all and this is by far our favorite. We have been using Tailwind since the company was founded.

MICROSOFT 365

When it comes to creating your products there is no comparison between Google and Microsoft. 

MS Word and PowerPoint are FAR superior to Google Docs and Slides. 

If you create your products with the correct fonts and formatting then any file will open perfectly in Google products as well. The button below will give you a 30% Discount on your MS365 Subscription.

TIDIO

I went almost a year into my first membership site before I added Live Chat to my sites. Boy was that a mistake!

This is the most instant relevant feedback you can get from your customers because they are on your site live looking for answers. 

I learned a lot about what teachers were looking for, what they didn't like, issues with my website I didn't know about, and much more!

This feedback is crucial in the beginning days of your website because you don't know what you don't know (they will tell you) and you want to make sure everything is working properly (they will also tell you). 

I use Tidio Live Chat. It's is FREE to start and their software is the simplest to use on the market.

DESCRIPT

 

If you create stories and reels this software is AMAZING! You can overlay captions with bouncing text and amazing color in seconds. 

It's built in AI overdub software and ease of use help me put out content in seconds where it used to take me hours! 

I highly recommend Descript if you do any kind of video marketing in your business.  

We also use this to edit our weekly live coaching calls. It cut the process from hours to minutes per call.

Click the button below to learn more about how you can scale your marketing creative creation 10 times faster with Descript!

MANYCHAT 

This software allows us to run contests on Facebook and Instagram. We use it to have leads put a word in the comments of posts and then automatically be sent a DM with information on how to join our email list. 

This is a must have if you run ads on the Meta platforms!

BOOKS AND EDUCATION

These are the books that changed my life forever!

READY FIRE AIM

MICHAEL MASTERSON

As a Math Teacher and Football Coach I always had an OCD type issue of wanting to make sure every little detail of everything was perfect. This is not always good in business. 

Don't get me wrong, I am still that way and it has brought me a lot of success. 

However, sometimes you just have to put stuff out and see what sticks. This book taught me about how to take things to market ready or not!

100 Million Dollar Offers

Alex Hormozi

I have read, listened to, and watched this book at least 20 times in the past two years. Every time I read it I get a new epiphany that I implement into my business. This was the best $0.99 I have ever spent in my entire life!

Alex was a personal trainer that figured out how to make hundreds of millions of dollars at a really young age. He is an extremely giving person and the sole reason I decided to give away Teacher Career Changer University for free. 

I believe I can help change the world of education and teachers lives forever. I want to give back to the people who help raise our future doctors, lawyers, nurses, and even presidents of the United States. Teachers change the world one child at a time.

I took notes in the book as I listened to the audiobook. That way I could go back and implement my notes into my businesses.

This book really helped me scale my business because it kept me on track with my financial goals. It gave me systems to use that work!

THE 12 WEEK YEAR

Brian P. Moran & Michael Lennington

When I first started my teacher membership journey I was struggling to scale as quickly as I wanted to. This book changed the game for me.

I was setting goals for the year and working towards those goals at just that pace.

This book taught me how to get a whole years worth of work done in 12 week intervals. We all procrastinate and do things at the last minute. We also say things like that pressure brings out my best work.

What is you were always working and accomplishing at that level? That is how this book changed my life. My business grew by 10X the year I read and implemented this book.

RICH DAD POOR DAD

Robert T. Kiosaki

This book was recommended to me over a decade ago and it is really what got me started thinking about my career outside of education. 

I never ever wanted to leave teaching. I absolutely loved teaching and coaching. I just wanted to find a way to make more money so I could continue to do the thing I loved because I did not make enough only teaching. 

This book was really hard for me to read because I did not have the "rich dad" type mentor. I only grew up with the mindsets of the "poor dad" in this book. 

This book started my journey into self-employment. It is one of the major reasons I have had such success.

CASH FLOW QUADRANT

THE 4-HOUR WORK WEEK

Timothy Ferriss

I read this book on an airplane to a vacation that I could not afford with my wife at the time. I remember it like it was yesterday. I was so stressed out about paying for the trip that I couldn't actually enjoy it. 

That pretty much sums up every vacation I ever took when I was a teacher. This book gave me the nudge I needed to actually make a change. I was not about working 4 hours a week. I was about being able to if I wanted to or had to. 

This is probably the first book you should read on this list. It will really change your view on life and what is possible.
