Hire Thinkific Expert — your academy, your brand

Thinkific: stronger white-label, no transaction fees, better B2B features. Teachable: simpler checkout, faster to start. Choose Thinkific when brand control and scale economics matter; Teachable when you want the fastest path to first sale.

Yes — group management, bulk enrollment, manager reporting, and SSO make it genuinely capable for B2B. This is Thinkific's clearest advantage over simpler platforms, and I build the B2B motion deliberately.

Multi-currency pricing, international payment support, and localized student experiences are all workable. I configure the specifics for your target markets during setup.

For standard academies, no. For custom enrollments, advanced reporting, or deep CRM integration, the API is the unlock — I scope its use honestly rather than by default.

Single-brand academies ship in three to six weeks; multi-course institutions with B2B features and integrations run six to twelve weeks.

I work two ways. Fixed-scope builds and migrations are quoted as a project after a short discovery call, so you know the number before we start. Ongoing work, integrations and optimisation run on a monthly retainer. I am a senior solo consultant, not an agency reselling junior hours, so you pay for the decisions and the build, not account management. If your budget is modest, I will tell you honestly whether you need to hire a Thinkific expert at all or can self-serve with a few hours of guidance.

Yes, this is one of the most common reasons people hire a Thinkific expert. I import users and enrolments, re-upload and re-attach video, rebuild products, coupons and bundles, and crucially build a 301 redirect map so your old course and sales URLs pass their ranking to the new ones. Course progress does not always carry across platforms, so I am upfront about what transfers cleanly and what we recreate. We rehearse on a staging environment before cutover.

Kajabi is an all-in-one that bundles email, funnels, website and a CRM, which is convenient but pricier and more opinionated. Thinkific is a specialist course and academy platform with stronger white-labelling, no transaction fees on paid plans, and better B2B group features, but it expects you to bring your own email and marketing stack. If courses are the core of your business and you already have, or want to choose, your own tools, Thinkific usually wins on control and long-run cost.

Yes. Thinkific is not fully Liquid-templated like Shopify, but it does allow custom HTML, CSS and JavaScript through code blocks and site-wide head and footer snippets. I use that to build custom dashboards, conditional pricing, bespoke sales pages and precise analytics tracking. The discipline is keeping custom code small, isolated and documented so platform updates do not break it and your team can still manage the site without me.

Often that is the better value. Plenty of people hire a Thinkific expert expecting a rebuild and leave with a fixed version of what they had. I review your product and pricing structure, drip and completion logic, integrations, tracking and theme code, then give you a prioritised list of what is costing you revenue or completions. Many issues, like misconfigured drip schedules or broken certificate logic, are quick wins once correctly diagnosed.

TCommerce, Thinkific's native payments, can calculate and collect sales tax and VAT at checkout, which removes a lot of manual work for international sellers. If you run your own Stripe gateway instead, tax handling becomes your responsibility and I will usually recommend Stripe Tax or a dedicated tool. During setup I configure multi-currency pricing and the right tax approach for where your buyers actually are, so you are compliant without over-engineering it.
