What Does a Simplero Expert Actually Do?

If you’ve been using Simplero for a while, or you’re just getting started, you may have come across the term “Certified Simplero Expert” and wondered: what do they actually do? Is it just tech support? Is it the same as Simplero’s own support team? And do you actually need one?

This post answers all of that clearly so you can decide whether hiring a Simplero Expert makes sense for where your business is right now.

This is the most common point of confusion, and it’s worth clearing up right away.

Simplero has its own in-house support team, and they’re genuinely excellent. Their response times are fast, their knowledge base is extensive, and they’ll help you work through platform questions and issues.

But Simplero’s own support documentation draws a clear distinction between their team and Certified Experts:

“If you need something done for you, these are the people you would look to hire if you want someone in your actual business, day-to-day, conquering each challenge along with you.”

In other words: Simplero’s support team helps you figure out how to do things. A Certified Simplero Expert comes into your business and does them for you, with strategic context, not just technical execution.

Simplero also offers a middle option called Concierge, which is expert-level support from within the Simplero team, but even Concierge is done with you, not for you. A Certified Expert works independently inside your account and handles implementation from start to finish.
​

The short answer: almost anything that needs to happen inside your Simplero account. Here’s a more detailed breakdown:

1. Account Setup & Configuration

If you’re new to Simplero or starting fresh after a messy DIY setup, a Certified Expert can configure your entire account properly from the start. This includes:

• Domain setup and connection
• Brand settings, colours, and fonts
• Email sending configuration (so your emails don’t land in spam)
• Payment processor connection (Stripe, PayPal, etc.)
• Legal pages and compliance settings
• Integrations with other tools you use

Getting these foundations right matters. A misconfigured account can cause email deliverability issues, payment failures, or compliance gaps that are much harder to fix later.

2. Platform Migration

If you’re moving to Simplero from another platform, Kajabi, Teachable, ConvertKit, WordPress, Thinkific, or something else, a Certified Expert manages the full migration process.

This means:

• Migrating your email list, contacts, tags, and purchase history
• Rebuilding your website, landing pages, and sales pages inside Simplero
• Recreating your courses, lessons, and membership access
• Rebuilding your email sequences and automations
• Testing everything before you go live so your existing customers never lose access

Migration is one of the highest-risk DIY tasks in Simplero because there are so many moving parts, and mistakes can directly impact your customers. An expert manages the entire process so nothing gets lost.

3. Website & Landing Page Design

A Certified Simplero Expert can design and build your full website inside Simplero. Not just a basic template, but a properly branded, conversion-focused site. This includes:

• Full website design and build
• Sales pages for your offers
• Landing pages and opt-in pages
• Thank-you pages and post-purchase pages
• Blog setup and layout
• Mobile optimization and user experience

4. Courses & Membership Sites

Setting up a course or membership in Simplero involves more than just uploading content. A Certified Expert handles:

• Course structure, module and lesson organization
• Content upload and formatting
• Student access and drip content configuration
• Membership tiers and subscription plans
• Student experience design — what does it feel like to be a member?
• Certificates, quizzes, and community setup

5. Email Marketing & Automations

This is where Simplero is particularly powerful, and where expert setup makes the biggest difference. A Certified Expert can build:

• Welcome sequences for new subscribers
• Sales email sequences for your offers
• Onboarding automations for new clients and students
• Re-engagement campaigns for inactive contacts
• Broadcast emails and newsletter templates
• Advanced automation workflows with tags, triggers, and conditions
• List segmentation and contact management

Getting automations wrong is one of the most common and most frustrating Simplero DIY problems. Emails fire at the wrong time, automation loops break, or contacts end up in the wrong sequences. An expert builds these correctly the first time.

6. Sales Funnels & Launch Tech

Whether you’re launching a course, a membership, or a new offer, a Certified Expert can build out the full funnel:

• Opt-in pages and lead magnet delivery
• Sales pages and checkout configuration
• Order bumps, upsells, and downsells
• Launch email sequences and automation
• Webinar or event registration and follow-up
• Post-launch cleanup and evergreen conversion

7. System Audits

If you’ve been using Simplero for a while but something feels off, your automations aren’t firing correctly, your emails aren’t performing, or you’re just not sure if everything is configured properly, a Certified Expert can audit your entire account.

An audit covers your account settings, website, email marketing, automations, courses, sales process, compliance, and analytics, and delivers a full report with prioritized recommendations.
​

8. Ongoing Support & Maintenance

Many business owners work with a Certified Expert on an ongoing retainer basis, meaning the expert is available every month to handle updates, new builds, troubleshooting, and maintenance as your business grows.

This is different from a one-off project. With ongoing support, your expert knows your systems intimately, knows your business goals, and can respond quickly when something needs attention.

9. Training & Strategy

Some Certified Experts also offer training, teaching you or your team how to use specific Simplero features, as well as strategic guidance on how to set up your systems for your specific business model.

This is particularly valuable if you want to understand your own platform rather than always relying on outside help.

To give you a fully honest picture:

• Not a copywriter – most experts will build your pages and sequences but won’t write your copy for you (unless that’s specifically part of their offer)
• Not Simplero’s support team – they’re independent business owners, not Simplero staff
• Not a general VA – a Certified Simplero Expert is a platform specialist, not a catch-all admin assistant
• Not a marketing strategist – they implement your strategy inside Simplero, but the strategy itself usually comes from you

Here’s an honest answer. You don’t always need one. If you have time to learn the platform, enjoy the tech side of your business, and your needs are relatively straightforward, Simplero’s own support resources are excellent.

But a Certified Simplero Expert is the right choice when:

• You’re short on time – every hour you spend figuring out Simplero is an hour you’re not spending on clients, content, or strategy
• You’re launching something – mistakes in a launch funnel cost you real revenue, and an expert gets it right the first time
• You’re migrating platforms – this is genuinely complex and high-risk to DIY
• Your setup is messy – if your account has grown organically and nothing quite works the way it should, an audit and rebuild pays for itself quickly
• You want ongoing reliability – having an expert on retainer means you always have someone who knows your systems and can respond fast 

A Certified Simplero Expert does far more than answer tech questions. They come into your business, understand how it works, and build the systems that let it run properly, reliably, and in a way that supports your growth.

The difference between a well-configured Simplero account and a messy one is visible in your client experience, your launch results, and the amount of time you spend dealing with backend problems every week.
