Onboard a new client the day they sign.

The moment a client signs, Patricia spins up the workspace and folders, works the onboarding checklist, chases the assets and access you need, and books the kickoff. Week one feels sharp and organised instead of a scramble to remember the steps.

What signing a new client looks like in #brightside-ops, without anyone remembering the checklist:

🎉 Vantage signed. Onboarding kicked off, here's where it stands:

  • Created the Vantage project, channel and Drive folder from the template
  • Access requested: Meta and TikTok ad accounts, brand kit, analytics
  • Kickoff proposed for Thursday, waiting on the client to confirm

@Pati assign the checklist to Iris and chase the ad-account access.

Done. Onboarding checklist is assigned to Iris with due dates, and I've sent the access request to the Vantage contact with exactly what we need and how to grant it. I'll chase anything still open on Monday and confirm the kickoff once they pick a time.

How agencies do this today.

A new client is the best moment to look professional, and it is usually the most chaotic week the agency has.

The checklist in someone's head

Onboarding depends on one person remembering the fifteen steps, so a different one gets skipped every time.

The week-one asset chase

Access, brand files, ad accounts and logins get chased one email at a time, and the first real work slips a week.

The messy first impression

The client's first experience is a disorganised kickoff and three separate requests for the same things they already sent.

What it looks like when she owns it.

Client onboarding task in Patricia: a task that runs when a new client signs, sets up the workspace and folders, works the checklist, chases access, and books the kickoff, with recent runs listed
The moment a client signs, she runs the onboarding: workspace and folders set up, checklist assigned, access chased, kickoff booked.
Integrations in Patricia with Asana, Google Drive and Slack connected, so she can run the checklist, set up folders, and gather what the new client needs
Connect the checklist and where files live. She spins up the project and folders and works the onboarding steps from Asana.

Setup

Running in minutes, then it's hers.

Step 1

Add Patricia to Slack

She joins your workspace like any teammate. Two minutes, no engineering.

Step 2

Connect Asana and Drive

So she can run your onboarding checklist and spin up the project, channel and folders from your template.

Step 3

Build the template once

Your standard onboarding steps, the access you always need, and the folder structure. She reuses it for every new client.

Step 4

She runs it on signing

Workspace set up, checklist assigned, assets and access chased, kickoff booked, so week one is organised from the first hour.

What she takes off your plate.

Real behavior of the skill, not a feature list.

Sets up the workspace instantly

Project, channel and Drive folders created from your template the moment a client signs, so there is nothing to build by hand.

Works the checklist for you

Your standard onboarding steps assigned with owners and due dates, so the same one never gets skipped because it lived in someone's head.

Chases access and assets

Ad accounts, analytics, brand files and logins requested from the client with exactly what you need and how to grant it, then chased until they land.

Books the kickoff

She proposes times, confirms with the client, and puts the kickoff on the calendar, so week one starts with a real meeting.

One clean first impression

The client sends things once and meets an organised team, so the relationship starts the way you want it to continue.

Reuses your playbook

Every onboarding runs off the same template, so the fifth client this quarter is as sharp as the first.

FAQ

Client onboarding, answered.

What does Patricia actually set up?

The project, the Slack channel and the Drive folders from your template, the onboarding checklist with owners and due dates, the access and asset requests to the client, and the kickoff meeting. All from the moment the client signs.

How does she know our process?

You build the onboarding template once, your steps, the access you always need and the folder structure, and she reuses it for every new client, so nothing is remembered from scratch.

Does she chase the client for things?

Yes. She sends the access and asset requests with exactly what you need and how to grant it, then follows up until they land, so week one is not spent chasing logins.

Can it trigger automatically on signing?

Yes. Point it at your deal-won signal or just tell her a client signed, and she kicks off the whole onboarding without anyone opening a checklist.

Is this all Patricia does?

No. Onboarding is one job. The same teammate handles proposals, client reporting, meeting recaps, and the rest of the work agencies hand her, all in the same Slack.

One of the jobs agencies hand her. See more admin use cases or browse them all.

Everybody deserves a Patricia.
