How 30+ entrepreneurs shared their journeys with Zenler's all-in-one platform - and what it reveals about the future of online business
The energy was infectious from the moment the first camera switched on. What started as a simple testimonial gathering for Zenler's upcoming marketing campaign quickly transformed into something much more meaningful - a genuine celebration of entrepreneurial success stories spanning continents, industries, and backgrounds.
Over two intensive sessions on a single day, more than 30 Zenler users joined founder David Zenler for what he called "probably the most authentic marketing content we've ever created." From dog trainers in Australia to yoga instructors in the UK, from AI consultants in Canada to spiritual coaches in Sweden, the diversity of businesses thriving on the platform was remarkable.

The first session kicked off at 8 AM with an impressive turnout despite the early hour for US participants. "We had quite a lot of people coming, and everyone got into it," David noted, setting the tone for what would become a masterclass in authentic testimonials.
Linda Åkerlund, who's been helping people create online courses for over 20 years, summed up why she chose Zenler: "It allows me to be creative. It's a wonderful community, and I can do everything I need in my business." Her sentiment echoed throughout both sessions - users consistently praised the platform's comprehensive nature.
Ashley Leeds, known as "The 15-Minute Guy" who helps people build their LinkedIn presence, brought his characteristic energy to the session. "I use Zenler to help run my business, and the best thing about it is everything is in one place. I don't need to go into different places to get different things. It's so easy to use."
Special Promotion Alert: Between July 1st and August 31st, Zenler is offering an unprecedented 60-day free trial to new users - no payment required for the first two months. This exclusive offer includes access to their accelerator program, providing guided support throughout the trial period. Most importantly, users who convert during this period will be grandfathered at current pricing forever, meaning their rates will never increase.

The 5 PM session brought together an even more diverse group, with participants joining from Japan, Sweden, Ireland, the UK, and Australia. Irene, calling in from Japan, admitted she was "pretty good at tech" but had found other platforms "really hard and time consuming." Her experience with Zenler was different: "The minute I went in I could see I actually thought you'd named it Zen for Zen. So it certainly felt quite zen when I went in."
One of the most fascinating aspects of both sessions was the strong representation from the dog training community. Marra from Dog Training Help in Australia, Ness Jones who works with separation anxiety in dogs, and Linda Kwoun from Wow Bow Wow all shared how they discovered Zenler through their professional networks.
"I found it through a trusted colleague," explained Casey Hanson, a master breathwork instructor. "Sometimes it's about what you know, but who you know. I trusted their experience, and that helped seal the deal for me."
The community aspect clearly resonated with these animal professionals. Ness Jones highlighted the platform's comprehensive nature: "It is literally a one-stop shop. You don't have to have all this extra software here, there, and everywhere. You pay your price, and everything is there for you to use whenever you need it."
Artists and creative professionals brought another dimension to the testimonials. Kerri Dixon, a wildlife and nature artist running The Creative Barn Membership, emphasized Zenler's user-friendly approach: "From having no tech experience, I was able to dive straight in, and within the first few months I managed to have my online membership up and running and having new people join me."
Nicola Blakemore, who teaches watercolor painting, appreciated the platform's comprehensive features: "I can do lives with my students. It's got so much in it. That's what is really important, and the ongoing help and education is amazing."
Grandfathering Opportunity: The current promotion represents the final opportunity for new users to lock in Zenler's current pricing structure. After August 31st, the grandfathering program ends, and new users will pay higher rates. This makes the 60-day free trial particularly valuable for those looking to build their online business.

Perhaps the most compelling testimonials came from users who had migrated from other platforms. Natalia Kuna's journey was particularly thorough: "I had actually done months, and probably over a year of really hard research into platforms. I tested out a bunch of them, all the main ones, even some lesser known ones, and I always found something that wasn't quite right."
Kim Hillman, a master strategist who's been with Zenler since 2019, shared her migration story: "I was using a platform that became very difficult for me to use because I couldn't create a sales page with it. So I decided to go looking for another platform, and that's when I found Zenler. I signed up the same day."
The pattern was consistent: users who had tried multiple platforms consistently found Zenler to be the most comprehensive and user-friendly solution.
If there was one theme that emerged more than any other across both sessions, it was the quality of Zenler's support system. Pauline Baxter, a sports massage practitioner, put it simply: "What I love most about it is the fantastic help and support, and it just shows you how easy Zenler is to use."
Sarah Antoni, a yoga teacher and life coach, expanded on this: "The amazing support is so interactive. You can raise a ticket for any help or question, there's very fast feedback, there's a Facebook group, there's direct interaction with the team. There's a monthly day with Zenler with lots of new tech training."
60-Day Accelerator Program: As part of the current promotion, new users receive access to Zenler's accelerator program, providing guided support and training throughout their 60-day trial period. This intensive program is designed to help users maximize their platform experience and build successful online businesses.

Several users specifically highlighted Zenler's built-in Zoom integration as a game-changer. Kim Hillman explained: "What I love most about it is that it's integrated with Zoom, and I can connect with my clients in person face to face, and it works every single time perfectly."
John Orian, a certified AI consultant from Calgary who's been with Zenler since 2019, shared how this integration saved him money: "I stopped my Zoom pro account. I stopped my Vimeo pro account because I can get all that stuff under Zenler. We would record the Zooms, edit them, put them up for our members to go back and watch them later on."
The newly launched community feature generated significant excitement among users. Karen Kerrisk, an NLP and mind skills trainer, was particularly enthusiastic: "Community on Zenler is magical. Your payment portals, your Zoom integrations, everything all in one place."
Kelly Sutherland, who works with parents of children with ADHD and dyslexia, saw the community feature as addressing a crucial need: "With my parents that I serve, they really need that opportunity to connect and talk about the struggles, and the community really gives me that opportunity. What I love about it is that I can set up those privacy factors."
The global nature of Zenler's user base was evident throughout both sessions. Fia from Sweden appreciated the platform's flexibility: "What I really love about it is that it has everything that I need. I create course content, I have a community, I have memberships, and also in the summer I can do it from my van."
Frances Gallagher from Ireland, who runs QQI certified business courses, emphasized the all-in-one nature: "Everything I need to run my QQI certified business here in Ireland is in one place, with courses, communities, emails, automation and unbelievable support. Zenler simply makes it simple."
David Zenler was transparent about the platform's pricing evolution during both sessions. He explained to users: "You guys are on the platform now, realize it will not affect you. Your prices are never going to go up. And if you've looked at the platforms lately, some of the platforms are really going bonkers. They're doing massive price increases."
The grandfathering program, which ends on August 31st, represents the final opportunity for new users to lock in current pricing. "When the grandfathering ends, the platform will go up in cost every year, and you guys won't be affected by that because you're on it," David explained.
Final Grandfathering Opportunity: The 60-day free trial offer is the last chance for new users to experience Zenler's full platform capabilities before the grandfathering program ends. Users who convert during this period will maintain their pricing level permanently, regardless of future price increases.
One significant announcement during the sessions was the end of Zenler's free plan. David explained the reasoning: "A lot of people use the platform for things like cloud storage or using the emails. So they're abusing the system, using up valuable resources that belong to you guys who are paying."
The shift reflects a broader trend in the industry toward paid-only models that ensure users are committed to actually building their businesses. "People like you that are paying, you push forward with things, you watch training, you actually move forward with your business," David noted.
The testimonials revealed success across virtually every industry imaginable:
Health and Wellness: From Reiki masters to breathwork instructors to massage therapists, wellness professionals found Zenler's integrated approach perfect for their needs.
Education and Training: Business trainers, course creators, and skill instructors appreciated the platform's comprehensive learning management capabilities.
Creative Arts: Artists, photographers, and craft instructors used Zenler's membership and community features to build thriving creative businesses.
Professional Services: Consultants, coaches, and service providers leveraged the platform's funnel and automation capabilities to scale their practices.
Throughout both sessions, users consistently praised Zenler's technical capabilities. The platform's all-in-one approach eliminates the need for multiple software subscriptions, as Lyric Kinard from The Academy for Virtual Teaching explained: "The payment processing systems - I can set up levels of pricing for one course, I can set up payment systems for one-time payment, or I can set up whole subscriptions for communities. It is so flexible, so easy to put in place."
These testimonial sessions represent just the beginning of Zenler's major marketing push. David explained: "We're using a branding company that set all our brand up, and they're actually producing all the graphics for us. We want to run these campaigns and we want you guys to be the stars."
The authentic nature of these testimonials - complete with dogs jumping into frame, technical difficulties, and genuine emotion - represents a refreshing departure from polished corporate marketing. "Some of these adverts are going to be actually put out there and budgeted for as well, so that's going to reach a lot of people," David noted.
Perhaps most importantly, both sessions demonstrated the power of community in building successful online businesses. Users consistently mentioned the support they received not just from Zenler's team, but from other users in the Facebook group and during training sessions.
Marra from Dog Training Help summed it up perfectly: "One of the things I love most about Zenler is that if I get stuck, there is this massive community of other people who use Zenler, and they are bound and determined to help me out with whatever my problem is."
As the sessions concluded, David shared his vision for helping users beyond just providing a platform: "We're trying to help you as well as us. So it's a balanced relationship. We want to do things like more pro interviews, these sort of things, to get drive traffic to you."
The testimonials revealed something profound about the current state of online business: success comes not just from having the right tools, but from being part of a supportive community that shares knowledge, celebrates victories, and helps overcome challenges.
Don't Miss This Opportunity: The 60-day free trial with accelerator program support represents an unprecedented opportunity to experience everything Zenler offers while locking in current pricing forever. With grandfathering ending August 31st, this is truly the last chance to join the Zenler community at current rates.
What made these testimonial sessions special wasn't just the diversity of successful businesses represented, but the genuine enthusiasm and community spirit that emerged. From separation anxiety specialists to spiritual coaches, from LinkedIn experts to watercolor artists, every user shared a common thread: Zenler had provided them with not just a platform, but a foundation for building their dreams.
As Nicola Blakemore put it: "It really is that one-stop place to go. It's absolutely brilliant." In an industry filled with complex, expensive solutions that require multiple integrations, Zenler's approach of providing everything in one place, backed by exceptional support and a thriving community, represents a refreshing return to simplicity and effectiveness.
The success stories shared during these sessions prove that with the right platform, supportive community, and commitment to action, anyone can build a thriving online business. The upcoming 60-day free trial offers the perfect opportunity to become part of this success story.
