CLIENT ONBOARDING · Workflow idea

Make every new client’s first steps feel clear and personal.

Use details a new client has chosen to share to prepare a relevant welcome and practical onboarding checklist. Keep the message focused on getting started, let a team member confirm the details and recipient, and send it only after a person approves the final wording.
