What is a client onboarding system?
It is an automated workflow that guides a new customer through the initial steps after a sale. This typically includes sending welcome information, collecting necessary data with intake forms, handling contracts, and scheduling the first meeting.
Can this connect to my existing CRM?
Yes. We build onboarding systems to integrate with your CRM. A 'deal won' status, for example, can act as the trigger to initiate the entire onboarding sequence automatically.
Does this require a client portal?
Not necessarily. We can build a client portal for a comprehensive experience, but we can also design a streamlined onboarding flow that works entirely through email, web forms, and e-signature tools.
What kind of information can we collect from new clients?
We can build custom intake forms and secure file upload tools to collect anything you need. This can range from basic contact details to project specifications, brand assets, or required legal paperwork.
How does this differ from lead management?
Lead management focuses on nurturing prospects before they become customers. Client onboarding begins immediately after the sale is made and is focused on successfully starting the client relationship and service delivery.
