Selling COURSES and MEMBERSHIPS using Zoho products.

Selling COURSES and MEMBERSHIPS using Zoho products.



Hi guys,

Courses and Memberships using ZOHO products.

Has anyone been able to make this work?

I want to know if anyone has found a combination that works for them.

I am a course creator, I also sell ebooks and other related info products.

I have been trying to create a course site with membership options for a while.

TWO BIG challenges. Stripe and Paypal are not available in my country.

This challenge alone rules out most hosted platforms like Thinkific.

Payment gateways available in my country are: 2Checkout, other solutions that 
work well with woocommerce(Cybersource, Flutterwave, DPO, etc...) and Mobile Money

I have created my own site with  WordPress, an LMS, and Woccomerce, I don't like the number of plugins 
I have to use and how
everything can easily be messed up by one plugin update.

Plus integrations have been a challenge. It's a Frankenstein bandaid solution.

I have wasted lots of time on this and decided that fiddling with tech is a bad use of my time.

I want to focus on creating courses, marketing them, and attending to my students.

I love the simplicity and diversity of Zoho Products.

I am wondering what is the right combination to get the results.

I like Zoho Showtime but it has no lesson hierarchy, content drip or prerequisite options.

I like Zoho subscriptions but I don't know how to create a convenient and easy to access
 Student portal or member dashboard.

I recently got access to Zoho classes but it seems a pain to just get started.

I like the possibility of integrating with Zoho CRM, Desk, SMS, Email Campaigns, Books, etc...

Sorry for the long post, I hope someone can assist me with ideas of what combination to use so that I focus on what
am good at, not tech headaches.

In summary, what I need:

Course selling platform
Subscription platform for memberships
Integrated accounting or billing portal
CRM to track individual customers details
Desk for Customer inquiries
Email for campaigns and signups
SMS and WhatsApp for extra reminders and other notifications.

                                                              A better clarity so you can create other users to start using Zoho Mail. You can directly Add Users from the Control Panel to your Organization. You can invite users with the existing email address. If the person (user) already uses ZohoCRM, then you can import users from Zoho CRM. You can also import them using a .csv file. (if you are planning to add them in Bulk)  In this topic, We will be discussing on how to Add and Invite users only.  The Import options are self explanatory. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

                                                                                                              Hi, I'm wondering if it's possible to set up an email campaign to display a different image for each contact using a custom field for the image url. I tried inserting custom html: <img src='$[UD:APP_IMAGE_URL||]$'/> but the editor seemed to reject this and did not actually add anything to the email template. Has anyone got any ideas? cheers, Jeremy

Literally every other project management system out there can support this and it is very much needed to just acknowledge a comment instead of completely
