→ What Does a Kajabi Tutor Actually Do?

Virginia Stockwell, Kajabi Tutor

A Kajabi tutor works with you directly to build and structure your Kajabi account while teaching you how it functions. Unlike platform support, virtual assistants, or agencies, a tutor focuses on both implementation and understanding.

This question usually comes up when someone feels stuck inside Kajabi and is trying to decide what type of help makes the most sense.

The Different Ways to Get Kajabi Help

Kajabi offers multiple support paths. The right choice depends on your business stage, technical confidence, and goals.

Kajabi Platform Support

Kajabi support answers technical questions through chat and email.

They help with:

  • Account issues

  • Feature explanations

  • Bug troubleshooting

  • Billing questions

They do not design your funnel, structure your offer, or build your strategy. They support the software, not your business model.

Virtual Assistant

A virtual assistant (VA) completes assigned tasks.

Examples include:

  • Uploading course content

  • Formatting pages

  • Scheduling emails

  • Basic design adjustments

A VA executes instructions. The strategy, structure, and direction must come from you.

If you are unsure what to build or how to structure it, a VA cannot solve that gap.

Full Agency

An agency typically delivers a finished project such as:

  • A website build

  • A sales funnel

  • A full course setup

Agencies often work independently and deliver the final product.

While this can save time, it may limit your understanding of how the system works. After completion, you may still rely on outside help for changes or updates.

Hiring a Kajabi Tutor

A Kajabi tutor works collaboratively with you.

This typically includes:

  • Structuring offers

  • Building sales funnels

  • Setting up checkout flows

  • Configuring email automation

  • Organizing products and access

The difference is involvement.

You build it together so you can understand how it works to be able to maintain and adjust it later.

A tutor bridges strategy and technical setup.

When Does a Kajabi Tutor Make Sense?

A tutor is usually the right choice when:

  • You want to understand your system

  • You need strategic input, not just task execution

  • You are restructuring offers or funnels

  • You want long-term independence

At this stage, the decision is less about outsourcing and more about choosing how involved you want to be in your own platform.

Where This Fits in the Process

This question typically arises after someone has attempted to build inside Kajabi and feels overwhelmed or uncertain about structure. The next decision most people face is whether they want execution-only help or collaborative strategic support.

FAQ

Is a Kajabi tutor the same as Kajabi support?
No. Kajabi support answers technical platform questions. A tutor helps structure and build your business system inside Kajabi.

Can a virtual assistant replace a Kajabi tutor?
Not usually. A VA completes tasks but does not provide strategic direction unless specifically trained in Kajabi strategy.

Are agencies better than tutors?
Agencies are better for full outsourcing. Tutors are better if you want to understand and manage your system long-term.

Do I need a tutor if I already know Kajabi basics?
Possibly. Tutors are often hired for restructuring funnels, improving automation, or optimizing checkout and offer flow.
