“I finally took it off my to-do list!” How Vibing Social streamlined to scale
How CJ Streamlined, Switched Platforms, and Scaled
When CJ, founder of Vibing Social, realised her DIY Facebook Ads course profits were being eaten away by Teachable’s 8% transaction fees plus monthly subscription costs, she knew it was time for a smarter tech solution.
After spending a year streamlining her services and systems, CJ’s vision was clear: scale her business with ease and simplicity, without the constant tech headaches holding her back.
The Challenge
What was standing in the way of a simpler, more scalable business.
High platform fees cutting into course profits
Needed a smooth migration to ThriveCart, transferring multiply course with video lessons and worksheets without disrupting existing students
Two distinct audiences (DIY training clients and ads management clients) were poorly segmented within MailerLite, causing messaging confusion.
Wanted to launch a waitlist for her premium ads management services but lacked the technical setup which was limiting her growth
With client work at capacity, CJ had zero bandwidth to handle tech tasks in-house, creating a bottleneck to scaling.
The Solution
We mapped out a plan to bring Olga’s membership to life:
A 45-minute strategy call to map out a clear 3-week implementation plan
Full platform migration from Teachable to ThriveCart Learn with no disruption to existing students
The Results
Within just one month of implementation:
Eliminated Teachable's 8% transaction fee plus monthly subscription, saving approximately £350/month (£4,200 annually).
Reduced checkout steps from 6 to 3, improving customer experience and potentially increasing conversion rates.
Properly segmented email lists and automated tagging reduced CJ's weekly marketing admin time.
Freed up hours previously spent on tech troubleshooting, allowing CJ to take on additional premium clients.
Kirsty was incredible – super speedy, excellent attention to detail
“I started working with Kirsty and the KS-VA team at the beginning of the year to migrate my digital products from teachable to thrivecart.
She was incredible – super speedy, excellent attention to detail and it felt so comforting knowing a big task was being ticked off the list while I focused on growing my business in other ways.
The work was so amazing that I have continued working with the team to assist with other areas of my business. I couldn’t recommend KS-VA more highly.
Communication is excellent, they are very efficient and knowledgeable and most importantly – I now have the space to focus on parts of the business I love, not the fiddly to-do tasks. That’s all taken care of 🙂
