We are very grateful to collaborate with a range of talented people and companies who share our vision and are resolved to help us achieve it. These relationships are near and dear to us. It’s a thrill to introduce you to them here.
Some partners are our top-recommended software platforms for online entrepreneurs. We think of these fine companies as our SmartBar partners, companies that don’t only provide an amazing tool but also link arms with us to provide valuable subject matter education and technical skill training on their tools to our community members.
Other partners are service professionals who specialize in a unique ability that we lack in-house. We think of these awesome persons and agencies as our force multipliers that magnify what we’re able to do and accomplish by ourselves.
Our Partners
Email marketing partner
ConvertKit is the only email marketing platform we use, and will ever use.
ConvertKit is our number one recommended email marketing platform because it has been thoughtfully built to the exact needs of creators building online businesses.
Their entire user experience is gorgeous and user-friendly. Segmenting our subscribers into focused groups so that we can deliver content specific to their needs has never been easier. And automating email sequences to ensure the right emails get sent in the right order is a breeze.
We also love just how simple it is to integrate ConvertKit with other software tools we rely on, such as Teachable and RightMessage. Such integrations have become essential to supporting our community members with individual situations. Needless to say, we’re all-in on ConvertKit.

Pat and team have been a huge part of our growth at ConvertKit. ConvertKit would look very different without Pat's impact and we are so thankful to work alongside him to help creators earn a living.“
Nathan Barry, ConvertKit Founder & CEO
Course Platform partner
Offering online courses to our audience revolutionized our business a few years ago, and Teachable made that possible.
Teachable is a market leader in the booming online courses industry. All of our online courses are housed on Teachable because they make it so darn simple to configure content, manage settings, and sell to students.
Better still, there’s absolutely no coding required to set up and start selling your online course with Teachable. And their new page editor makes building and customizing your course’s design elements easier than ever.
Oh, and if you have affiliates for your online courses like we do, then you’ll fall deeper in love with Teachable because they handle all of the heavy-lifting for you such as calculating and executing payouts to affiliates.

We've been working with Pat and the rest of the SPI team for over three years now and, simply put, they are one of the biggest reasons we are here today.“
Ankur Nagpal, Teachable Founder & CEO
Segmentation partner
We wanted to better understand our audience and better tailor their experience with our products, and RightMessage helped us do that.
RightMessage is a pioneer in segmentation and personalizing users' experiences on any website site. In a few short questions, visitors to our site can specify the information they want, and RightMessage is able to give it to them.
We are sensitive to the privacy of our audience, so we appreciate that RightMessage can individualize content based on information our audience provides to us, rather than through tracking them across the Internet. And RightMessage makes setup easy and allows us to ask exactly the right questions.
And if you're a ConvertKit user, the integration with ConvertKit is seamless, which makes it even easier to get users exactly the content they want. We are all for tools that make our lives simpler and our users' lives better, so we love RightMessage.

Over a year ago, we started working with Pat and the SPI team to help them better segment their audience. That has grown into a fantastic relationship, including contributing to the SmartBar at FlynnCon and having our teams work side-by-side.”
Brennan Dunn, RightMessage Founder & CEO
MEMBERSHIP COMMUNITY PARTNER
Circle is the modern community platform for creators — and the easiest way to set up a premium community experience, just like SPI Pro.
We chose Circle to power SPI Pro, over other community tools, because Circle has the best member experience out there. It also facilitates connection between our members in ways that are clean and distraction-free.
Circle is powerful enough to support some of the largest and most successful online communities—while being easy to use for community builders who are just starting out. One of our favorite things about Circle is that it’s fully white-labeled, so it can match and integrate with your brand. This makes for a seamless user experience, and it means that your members stay looped into your community at all times — increasing engagement, retention, and connection. If you’re looking for a community platform, we highly recommend Circle.

Our partnership with Pat, Matt, and the SPI team has served as a massive inflection point for Circle’s business. Pat’s marketing savvy and Matt’s product chops are, of course, invaluable. But their empathy and commitment to creators is unmatched. We’re grateful for SPI.” Sid Yadav, Co-Founder & CEO at Circle
DIGITAL AGENCY PARTNER
Our entire business is online, which means having a beautiful website, quality design, and marketing and growth strategies that work. For that, we trust and rely on Good People Digital.
Good People Digital is a full-service digital agency in Nashville, TN. They redesigned our website and visual brand identity, creating an online experience for our customers that we’re extremely proud of.
They’re pros in digital marketing as well, helping us plan, create, and promote most of our marketing and educational content.
We’re consistently impressed with their knowledge of the online space, and their ability to know where to focus our marketing efforts to get the most results. They see opportunity and execute on it with speed and quality, taking just as much ownership as our own team. As a result, we’re able to connect with our audience and grow like never before.

It’s a rare partnership where we all feed off of each other, learning and growing together while performing at such a high level.” Darrell Vesterfelt, Co-Founder & CEO at Good People
PODCAST PLAYER PARTNER
Fusebox.fm provides an engaging podcast listening experience right on our website that helps convert visitors into listeners.
Fusebox.fm is a podcast player for WordPress websites that gives podcasters an entire suite of tools to grow their audience and engaged their listeners. With Fusebox, we can display our entire catalog of podcast episodes right on our website any way we want to.
The single-track player allows us to pick a specific episode to feature on a page or blog post, making show notes a piece of cake. Plus, the included transcription plug-in lets us easily display transcriptions in a user-friendly way that also improves our SEO.
When you add the built-in email capture tool, the customization options, and all of the other features it offers, it’s the obvious podcast player to choose. And they’re actively releasing new features all the time, which means the tool just keeps getting better and better.

I wanted to delight visitors to my website with the ability to listen to any episode from my podcast. Right there, on the site. Options were sparse, ugly, and just not quite right. So we built one. Fusebox is what I’ve always wished for in a podcast player.” Pat Flynn, Co-Founder at Fusebox
