“Using Easol was the best decision we made for our business,” says Mantas. “Everything is integrated and we can easily track payments and customers.”

Considering migrating your experience business to Easol? Here’s how we make the process as quick and seamless as possible. 

Build on your own domain with ease

One of the biggest concerns we hear from experience creators is website migration is costly, requiring a lot of time and technical expertise. Easol helps solve this with an intuitive website builder and website themes designed by experience commerce experts for optimal conversion rates. 

Acting as a foundation for your website, these themes can then be fully customised with your branding. Create as many pages as you need with highly configurable content blocks, such as testimonials, FAQs, videos, forms etc. With these tools, you can create and launch your website effortlessly – no coding skills required!

“I was initially daunted by the fact that we’d have to move the whole website over to a new platform but the platform was so intuitive and things just worked,” says Emily Wood at WOMAD. “I actually found that once I got started with Easol, I was like, ‘oh, this is cool — I can totally do this!’”
