Making it work for clients is what you are paying the CA for. If those keys were signed by a custom CA you can optionally add *that CA* to the browser trusted set. Or the user could click to add exception when they get their popup. Some of the browsers now are ignoring self-signed certs (provided they are valid to the server being contacted). Or you could add TLSA records to your DNS for the domain.
