In the fast-paced world of digital business, having the right tools can make or break your success. For Jody Jelas, CEO of the marketing agency Phunnel Builders, Kartra wasn’t just another software – it completely transformed how she operates her business. Her experience shows how the right platform can turn headaches into wins and help increase revenue without doing extra work.
How Jody Slashed Costs by Streamlining
Before discovering Kartra, Jody faced an overwhelming list of tools and subscriptions that left her team struggling. “We had so many different softwares that we were pulling together,” she reflects. Each new tool added complexity and cost, leading to frustration.
The turning point came when Jody decided to make a change. “By moving to Kartra and canceling all the subscriptions, we were saving $1,000 a month.”
But the real victory wasn’t just the savings, it was the newfound clarity and efficiency that transformed her workflow. “It just gave us the metrics, stats, and everything we needed all in one place.” With Kartra’s marketing analytics, Jody’s team could clearly see which marketing strategies were working and which weren’t.
This meant they could stop spending time and money on things that weren’t effective and focus on the ones that were driving results. Over time, they fine-tuned their approach, improving the way they connected with customers.
By making small changes based on real data, Jody’s team was able to get better results without doing more work. Kartra helped them work smarter, not harder, and grow their business faster.
Skyrocketing Engagement: Doubling Open Rates & Building Connections That Convert
When Jody made the leap to Kartra, the results were immediate and powerful. “Before I moved my email list over to Kartra, I had a 13% open rate. Right out of the gate, the first emails we sent with Kartra were getting at least a 30% open rate.”
What used to feel like a constant struggle to get her audience’s attention suddenly became effortless.
With Kartra, she wasn’t just saving time—she was building deeper, more meaningful connections with her audience, which naturally led to more conversions. This breakthrough showed Jody what’s possible when you use the right all-in-one marketing platform to take your business to the next level.
Kartra’s advanced video tracking also allowed Jody to create hyper-targeted marketing campaigns. “You can tag people depending on how far along the video they’ve watched,” she explains. These tags trigger automations based on the actions people take—whether they clicked a link, watched part of a video, or visited a page.
For example, if someone watches a promotional video but doesn’t see the offer at the end, Kartra’s video marketing software can automatically send them a follow-up email or text message that includes the offer they missed, reminding them to take action.
This kind of customization keeps your marketing relevant and timely, turning every interaction into a chance to build engagement and convert leads into paying customers.
Empowering Clients with Success
The impact of Kartra didn’t just transform Jody’s business—it revolutionized the success of her clients. As a marketing agency owner, Jody actively encourages her clients to switch to Kartra because it delivers measurable results and boosts their businesses with minimal effort.
Beyond the dramatic increase in open rates, Kartra’s ability to personalize customer journeys has become a game-changer.” When we create webinars for people, we’re able to see exactly how they prefer to consume content,” Jody shares. This level of insight allows her to tailor each client’s marketing approach, whether by sending highlight reels, PDFs, or other content based on viewer behavior.
The result? Jody’s clients are experiencing a new level of personalized engagement that consistently multiplies their sales—without any additional work. Kartra’s automation and customization features do the heavy lifting, enabling her clients to focus on scaling their businesses while Kartra handles the rest. This personalized, hands-off approach is helping entrepreneurs streamline their efforts, deepen customer relationships, and see real growth, all with less time and effort.
A Vision for the Future
For Jody, Kartra has been a total game-changer, making it easy to save time while quickly rolling out marketing campaigns. “The beauty of Kartra is it has so many things that it can do and different ways that you can do it.” This flexibility is what sets Kartra apart—it transforms what could be a daunting, complex project into a streamlined, repeatable success. As Jody explains, “We can literally create a campaign that you can clone,” showcasing how Kartra’s tools not only meet her needs but consistently exceed her expectations.”
Cloning funnels has been a massive time-saver for both Jody and her clients. Instead of spending weeks—sometimes months—building sales funnels from scratch, Kartra allows them to duplicate what’s already working and simply fine-tune the details. This shift has given Jody’s team the freedom to focus on optimization rather than starting over every time, accelerating their ability to scale faster.
Jody is so passionate about the time-saving power of Kartra that she’s even developed an in-depth training on repurposing content across multiple marketing channels and funnels. This approach ensures maximum visibility and impact from the content they create, without the extra effort. You can watch her training below.
