Live Webinars In Kajabi (Step by Step)

Webinars (when done right) can be a powerful tool for your online business.
You offer a free live training to your audience, they come and enjoy solid teaching, interaction, and walk away having learned something powerful. You also get to pitch your product or coaching at the end, offering the chance for your people to go deeper with you.
But how do you pull off a webinar - technically speaking?!
The good news? With Kajabi you can do easily and for free. And today I'm going to show you how, every step of the way.
And finally - If you’re interested in trying out Kajabi for free for an entire month, hit the link below for a 28 day free trial and take their 28 day challenge. Full disclosure it’s an affiliate link, so if you end up using Kajabi it will support me as well. If not, no hard feelings.

Hey Graham, any idea why the live chat wouldn't work inside the Webinar Room? I've built the pipeline and have scheduled a KZbin live in a week's time as a livestream. The video is embedded correctly and is showing the correct thumbnail. Everything else is working fine, just like it did the last time I did one of these! Only problem is, the live chat next to the video player is showing as a 'broken' symbol (pixelated sad face thingy) even though live chat is turned on in both KZbin and Kajabi. Any advice welcome as I have 5 days to figure it out! Many thanks 😀

[@ThrivingAfterThirty]

Did you ever figure what was wrong?

[@MyFrenchStory]

You are the best! Thank you so much!! SUBSCRIBED!!!!

[@DevinCarroll]

Ok...starting to feel like I'm stalking you a little. :-) Another great video!

[@GrahamCochrane]

Hahaha. Glad the videos are helping.

[@SuzanneAllardDesign]

Hi Graham, thanks for this. I want to do a live, paid painting course using Kajabi, this is more for using the webinar as a marketing tool. I want to actually sell spots in a live class. Can you point me anywhere? Does Kajabi have this feature?

[@GrahamCochrane]

Yes, you can simply make it a paid webinar. Instead of a free opt in, they pay to sign up and then are directed to the private Kajabi Webinar room. Or to a zoom room.

[@SuzanneAllardDesign]

@@GrahamCochrane thanks so much! I have ecamm live and am trying to figure out how to keep things simple and just use that and either Kajabi or Teachable and avoid Zoom altogether. It sounds like you think that's possible?

[@lucymuiruri1862]

Excellent, I was stuck. I am unstuck now

[@marypolancodesigns]

SUCH a great presentation! Do you happen to know if there is a time limit for my webinar doing it this way?

[@andrewyze4652]

I love your style, Grant. Value upfront. I like to call that "FREE GAME".

[@karolinak-a7790]

Hi, this was a really helpful video. Nevertheless, I have heard that KZbin LIVE is giving many problems during LIVE trainings (especially since COVID). Have you experienced any problems/bugs yourself; or are you using it regularly and not experienced any trouble at all? Thanks in advance for your time in responding to my qs.

[@GrahamCochrane]

I've had zero issues with KZbin Live personally

[@locksmithingsecrets]

Great video, thanks! Do you know how to share screen on KZbin live without any software? I’m using a chromebook

[@GrahamCochrane]

Use a free site called StreamYard

[@TheMixAcademy]

Have I told you lately that I love you? I'm up super late getting last minute things done before the stream tomorrow and blanked on the video id. You're the best.

[@SuperChargeYourself]

LOVE this! I already use Kajabi, and love it. Also, do you have a video on PAID LIVE workshop?

[@chrisbrain75]

Great video, and super helpful. Except for one thing. You mentioned that whilst in KZbin you can share your screen and share slides, but you do not show how to do this. I tried this out as a pilot and I could not see any screen sharing facility in KZbin. Maybe I missed something important in setting this up? Perhaps you could respond with advise Graham? Cheers.

[@GrahamCochrane]

Chris you’re right. They got rid of this feature in recent years. I use a free program called StreamYard to do this.

[@gabrielharo2464]

I used your affiliate link. Thanks for the knowledge. Why do you use KZbin vs Zoom?

[@GrahamCochrane]

Thanks for the support! I use both Zoom and KZbin Live. Zoom has a limit on how many people can attend. I pay for up to 500 people on a Zoom webinar - but KZbin allows me to have thousands on live for free.

[@Bhadrasena]

How do you track and segment those who registerd, from those who actually attended and those who bought?

[@GrahamCochrane]

Kajabi does this automatically. You can filter your people buy those who registered and didn't buy, and those that registered and DID buy. If you want to know who attended, then you'll have to setup an automation that tags anyone who clicks on the webinar link in the emails.

[@innerglowyogastudiobykiyom3548]

I am binge watching your videos and learning a lot. I want to build a bilingual website with products and services both in Japanese and English, and I was wondering if you have dealt with the question before.... I also just signed up with Kajabi with their 14-day trial before I watched your video. Is it too late to use your affiliate link?

[@GrahamCochrane]

Hi! So I haven't done bilingual content myself so I can't speak into that much. You might be able to cancel your account and re-sign up with my link using a different email address.

[@yenesisleadership]

great video it is very helpful for non techs like myself, how do you add emails before the event? you did not mention that. thanks

[@GrahamCochrane]

When editing the Pipeline you can add as many emails before the event as you like. Super easy.

[@arthritisadventure]

this video was very helpful! But how do you share your screen on youtube live?

[@TMarieMurphy]

Is there a way to add an email address to the registration page? This pipeline just has a register button, but doesn't ask for email and name.

[@GrahamCochrane]

Yea. When they click that button it opens up a form for their name and email.

[@thomaspowner7552]

With the live webinar via KZbin webinar can you have a guest speaker and can we show our webcams?

[@GrahamCochrane]

You can if you use a tool like StreamYard. It's free.

[@JoshuaCarvalho1]

this is awesome! thanks!

[@domenicavallejo5254]

hi cochrane, great video!! I have a question, can I share a screen if I use KZbin live?

[@GrahamCochrane]

Yes - you used to be able to do it natively in KZbin. Now you have to use some external platform like StreamYard or OBS. Both of which are free.

[@jofprongs]

thanks nice i loved the whole thing! how do you share slides?

[@bioboostbente]

This video is great. Thank you for sharing;) I have it all set up in Kajabi now, but just wondering if there is a way to save chat as a txt file from livestream for later? Also wondering if people watching the live stream in Kajabi on a Webinar-room page, do they have to be logged into KZbin to be able to use chat???

[@inspiringyounglearnersbeth163]

Super helpful video, two questions... how do you share your screen through youtube live and how do you have your webinar attendees comment without having to sign into youtube? When we tried to figure it out, it takes them away from the kajabi live and into youtube. Thanks!

[@carlynbushman3057]

Super helpful!!!! Thank you!!!! What is your suggestion for integrating slides during my live presentation? I am going to sign up for Kajabi!!! Already working with another client who is using it! Thanks!

[@GrahamCochrane]

So glad! So KZbin took this screen share function natively away but you can use another free tool like StreamYard to share both your screen and your web cam (or either one) on your KZbin Live stream - which of course is showing up inside your Kajabi webinar.

[@carlynbushman3057]

@@GrahamCochrane Thanks so much for this! I have been working with StreamYard. Would you use this instead of Zoom?

[@TheBarkanMethodofHotYoga]

Hi...I have a pro Zoom account but not the Webinar function. I also have a Kajabi account, and just about to start a KZbin channel. Since I don't have the Zoom Webinar function should I get it, or just use KZbin in the way you describe? Thanks for your help!!

[@successfulchildren]

This is helpful, Graham, thanks! Did you once incorporate Streamyard in your live training on KZbin? If so, how?

[@managementscience-byproxi2394]

Hi Graham, it seems like this video on live webinars in Kajabi did not come back to discuss using Zoom Webinar with Kajabi for a Live Webinar.... but, my overall questions is to ask what your recommendation to use with Kajabi pipelines/offers, in order to deliver a paid, live, online training course to 10 or less people? KZbin Live seems good for unidirectional webinars with live chat, but if I want more of a live, virtual classroom environment, not sure if Zoom webinar, Zoom meeting, or other platform is best to pair up with Kajabi. I would appreciate your recommendations, Jeff.

[@managementscience-byproxi2394]

Actually, in the Legacy Pipelines, the Live Event pipeline looks workable for a paid, online training course. That said, interesting in any recommendations you may have. Thanks!

[@GrahamCochrane]

I've used Zoom for paid live webinars. The zoom webinar pipeline basically allows you to sell a virtual ticket to the training and have an email that delivers the zoom link to people who registered. That's it really.

[@roijackers86]

So sorry to find out, that after setting everything up in Kajabi and waiting for 24 hours to be accepted in KZbin live, you CAN'T actually share your screen... Also the chat option isn't working anymore when you embed. Love your videos, but this was a complete waste of time...

[@christinenguyen123]

so useful, thanks :)

[@FriendsofFathers2012]

Graham, awesome information. I will do this.

[@GrahamCochrane]

Awesome!

[@SandyFatMan]

What are key designs we need before we get a Kajabi account. I want to make the most of my time right when I get it and being prepared with background planning is ideal. It would be helpful to know what to pre-design, plan or write. Thumbnails? Emails? How much preparation should we do??

[@GrahamCochrane]

Good question. You don't NEED to prepare anything when signing up with Kajabi. But I would have already decided WHO you will be serving and WHAT your first 10+ pieces of content will be.

[@martyclement]

This was exactly what I needed for today Graham. Thank you for all the information you've given us on our journeys! I hope I can help other the way you've helped me.

[@WilliamFigueroa]

Hey Graham, this is great. How do you prevent people from sharing that video link within the youtube embed? Is there a way to use wistia and zoom? I know wistia does a bunch of work for this exact precaution and would love to know.

[@GrahamCochrane]

Nothing - but no one really will. And if they do, that's great - more people to hear my offer! If you go the Zoom route then there's no way people can share so that can be a great way to go.

[@leemohler4821]

Great video! How do you use slides in webinar?

[@GrahamCochrane]

You'll just need a free tool like StreamYard to allow you to share your screen in addition to your webcam.

[@ameralshwaf]

thank you for sharing this amazing information

[@GrahamCochrane]

My pleasure

[@russrobson]

The step-by step was super helpful... we almost paid for webinarjam for a year before we realized we could do it all in our Kajabio app. We are getting closer to feeling like our Kajabi app is being utilized to its fullest! Thanks GC

[@GrahamCochrane]

Glad it was helpful!

[@larissave9819]

Will it automatically record and save the KZbin live? I want to set up and send a replay!

[@lisarogers8918]

Hi, Can I assume that positing a YOU TUBE LIVE would also work on a post within a kajabi community?

[@TomlinDemetriusC]

Hi Graham. Thanks for the great info. If I wanted to create a live paid workshop, is Kajabi good for that too? I would be teaching Christians how to eat a more plant-based diet. During my workshop, I would need to do food demonstrations and lectures. Thank you.

[@Patmahan__]

You’re amazing .. and this is excellent. But I’ve been on 2 live calls read everything i can and no one can tell me how to simply sell ... a one time live webinar ...lol. I don’t have a product Im selling .. I just need a landing page .. a checkout and a link to the webinar and when it starts. And I’m losing my mind lol. The guy in the live session w kajabi yesterday said that’s not possible ... how can that not be possible. If ANYONE can help I’d love you forever

[@GrahamCochrane]

Haha. You're not losing your mind. We do this all the time. Sell tickets to live webinars. You basically create the pipeline but then for the registration page, turn the CTA button into a BUY NOW button and link to a checkout page for the offer. Create an automation that's triggered when they pay that registers them for the live event in your pipeline and you're all set!

[@Patmahan__]

@@GrahamCochrane ok awesome. I was able to do that but it changes my pricing to join for free and I cant change it it seems .. my paypal information is gone. ****. Found it. Ok I’m good you’re the man 🤣🤣🙌

[@rpsilvas76]

Can I use this for Weekly Q&A's and My Monthly Trainings for my Membership Site on Kajabi? Is there a limit on the amount of people that can attend? Thank you

[@FaisalSyedOfficial]

Hi Graham, In the youtube live webinar, how can I present my screen?

[@GrahamCochrane]

You used to be able to do it natively - now I use a free program called StreamYard to do that.

[@angelamazzi9513]

SO helpful- I had no idea you could run webinars from kajabi- was not considering it worth it if I had to purchase another platform.

[@alexandraplastira8334]

Hi! Helpful video ! thanks a lot! I have one question... is there a way to hide the number of participants on the live webinar on kajabi via youtube?

[@Tisha.SaludIntegrativa]

Awesome info, like always! I did such a live webinar for my first course in Kajabi on July7th and I wish I had known I could do it like this! I just used Events and paid for an upgrade on Zoom to 250 attendees. Still, I have 100+ students enrolled so I deem it a success, but for the next launch in September I’ll sure build it like this!! Thank you!

[@GrahamCochrane]

Congrats on the 100+ students!

[@shelbyjohncoaching]

So I don't have the legacy pipline tab in my Kajabi? I guess maybe I am not paying for that level of the platform? I Usually do my challenges live in Facebook using Zoom but I feel like so many are leaving FB you miss out.

[@GirlTribeNation]

Thanks Graham, I've got this all set up, but I can't share my screen. How do you share your screen to show slides to do this?

[@GrahamCochrane]

Yeah, KZbin got rid of that functionality natively. I use a free program called StreamYard for this now.

[@GirlTribeNation]

@@GrahamCochrane thanks I got it all set up and am up running with this! I appreciate the response.

[@ceogoddess2543]

I just found out if you open a new KZbin channel, it takes 24 hours to set up and wait for the option to stream live. It counts down from 24 hours so set that up early so on the day of your event, you can simply just go live. Hope this helps someone.

[@mariamsaifanphotography7706]

This was incredibly helpful! Signing up for Kajabi now. Also, how do we share our Canva slides on our KZbin live?

[@martylewis9538]

Can you do a similar thing but for an existing membership site? Want to make it simple for people to join a weekly q and a. Thanks also for the affiliate link 👍

[@Bo-jv5fz]

This seems so muvh easier then webinar jam and click funnels. But what if you want to charge for webinar

[@RonSullivanHitting]

Your channel has really been a blessing for building my first course on Kajabi! I got the first hero status (1K) 4 days into my free trial. I found you after I got the free trial offer and I wish you had got the credit for my purchase, because this channel is perfect! Thanks for everything you do Graham

[@GrahamCochrane]

Congrats on your quick success!

[@anthonylawton5363]

Graham, re youtube approach - how do you get to differentiate people that sign up but don't attend, from those that do attend - so can automate different follow up email sequences? Thanks great video

[@dufflyn]

if i want to incorporate a live webinar weekly as part of a course that students already registered for, do i need to do the full ovo protocol?

Hey, maybe its time for an update! Currently I operate 2 membership sites, employ 2 people full time and 6 people part time through two businesses, recently got my 100k pin (and a cool jacket!) from Kajabi and the business has made over 700 000 dollars since then (I use Kajabi to land consulting gigs that I invoice separately). All in all: Lifechanger. Thanks Graham!

[@soundproofyourstudio]

This is really amazing. I am using your Kajabi training and planning my second big launch. I’m thinking about using the Jeff Walker Launch formula with three live trainings and then an open cart. It seems against the prevailing one webinar model. Not sure if people have thoughts on that. Thanks!!!

[@mahailiabaron1544]

[@carlynbushman3057]

Another question - best way to create a kajabi cusom domain. If I have my website/domain through GoDaddy - I would prefer the Kajabi back-end reflects the same thing. Thanks!

[@GrahamCochrane]

Kajabi settings is the place to do that - assuming you want to move your entire website over to Kajabi. If you DON'T want to do that but simply want to you use your domain name for your kajabi back end for products, landing pages, etc, then you'll want to create a SUBDOMAIN in GoDaddy like access.grahamcochrane.com or members.grahamcochrane.com. That can then be connected to your Kajabi account.

[@narraecrowley3556]

OMG so right about the webinars that scoop you in but give no value. No problem with the objective but they tell you at the beginning that there is NO sale at the end but spend the whole time telling you how much they earn and their students. The TOPIC, if you blink, you miss it because it is so brief.haha. Another hour I'll never get back. Your content however is great and absolutely receive value so thank you

[@GrahamCochrane]

Thanks!

can we use pre-recorded videos for this webinar?

do I need to create an offer if i want to charge for the webinar?

[@LuisMartinArt]

Super excited to get on this! Thank you!

[@MorSag]

Thanks, Graham. Very good and clear training! If I want to allow my membership customers access all archived live-webinars, can I somehow embed the KZbin live recording as a "lesson" in a product they are subscribed to? Without downloading from KZbin and uploading to Kajabi - natively embed KZbin movie (which is not accessible publicly)?

[@GrahamCochrane]

Yes you totally can do that.

[@mindfulmoneyllc1627]

This has indeed been very helpful. Thanks!

[@consumedcoaching]

My chat is not coming through. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

[@heatherized6928]

Curious what you would recommend if you want to do a webinar that is both pre recorded and live? I would like to have the training component pre-recorded but allow for live QA with Zoom. Is there a way to put the video in a product and have it released at a specific date and time? Then have them join zoom for QA?

[@GrahamCochrane]

Yes - if you want to do live and pre-recorded during the webinar then you will need something like StreamYard to switch between the two

[@CapitalGainsPodcast]

Needed this video. Appreciate you!!

[@LodestarSolutions]

A video on charging for webinars would be beneficial

[@WhatToSellOnAmazon]

Hey man, love your work! Signed up with your affiliate link long ago and have since upgraded from Basic to Growth plan. I use Streamyard when I go live particularly because it allows me to easily bring in guests. Streamyard links with KZbin for your livestream so will it work with webinars in Kajabi the same way?

[@allyfigiel1496]

[@MattBakerJazz]

Great video Graham.. I'm very interested to learn about the pre-recorded webinars in Kajabi - specifically the Evergreen ones. Does Kajabi actually do Evergreen webinars in their true sense? That being - when the customer sees a facebook ad for the product, and the ad says "register your spot now", they click, and it goes to the webinar page saying the webinar will start in (example) 7 minutes - no matter what time of day.. Ie, the webinar will always begin for them within about 10mins.. Just like the way the software "EverWebinar" does. Thanks !!

[@GrahamCochrane]

Yep. Will cover that in a video soon.
