Overview

A growing course business held together by manual spreadsheets

Elena was selling courses well, but every sale kicked off a chain of manual steps — grant access in the course platform, add the student to the right email list, log the payment in a spreadsheet, send the welcome note. Across five tools that never spoke to each other.

She wanted to spend her time creating new material, not reconciling Stripe payouts against enrolments at the end of every week.

The Challenge

What the client was dealing with

Nothing was broken exactly — but everything depended on Elena remembering to do four things after every single sale, and mistakes meant a student paid and waited.

Five disconnected tools

Stripe, the course platform, email, a spreadsheet and her calendar all lived in separate worlds.

Manual enrolment after every sale

Each purchase meant granting access and copying details by hand.

Weekly reconciliation

Hours spent matching payments to enrolments to make sure nobody was missed.

The challenge was real, and it was costing time, money, and client experience.

The Solution

How we connected everything

We built an integration layer in n8n that listens for a Stripe payment and then does everything automatically: enrols the student, grants course access, tags them in ConvertKit, starts the onboarding email sequence and logs the sale to an Airtable dashboard.

Elena now opens one dashboard to see every student, every payment and every enrolment in real time — and never touches the steps in between.

The solution was designed from the ground up to fit this exact business.

Client Feedback

What the client said about working together

★★★★★

I was drowning in admin between Stripe, my course platform and email. Basit tied it all together. I now spend my time creating — not in spreadsheets.
