A complete client onboarding kit: an editable checklist covering agreement verification, contacts, access, inputs, kickoff, and billing, plus a ready-to-use intake questionnaire, kickoff agenda, welcome email, and offboarding checklist.

Everything around the checklist, ready to send. Each piece is already written: Client Intake Questionnaire (Collect the organization, contact, request, and access details before discovery starts); Kickoff Agenda (A focused first meeting that aligns goals, scope, roles, and the immediate next steps); Welcome Email Template (A ready-to-send email that tells a new client exactly what happens next); Offboarding and Handover Checklist (Close the engagement cleanly: files, access, finance, and a proper handover).

The checklist. Commercial handoff: Confirm the accepted proposal, agreement, scope, price, currency, and billing terms; Record the exact services, deliverables, exclusions, assumptions, and change path; Confirm the client organization, legal name, billing contact, and tax details where applicable. People and authority: Name the relationship owner, delivery owner, client lead, approver, and finance contact; Confirm each person’s access and communication role; Define absence coverage and the no-eligible-owner fallback. Working setup: Create the client and project records with stable identifiers; Collect required inputs, files, brand material, credentials, and dependencies; Agree on channels, response expectations, status cadence, and meeting rhythm. Kickoff and first milestone: Review outcomes, responsibilities, dates, risks, and acceptance criteria; Confirm the first client action and first internal action; Send the shared summary and schedule the first health review.

Treat this as a starting point, not automatic authority. Adapt roles, approvals, legal, tax, accounting, security, privacy, and professional requirements to the actual organization and jurisdiction. Record who reviewed material changes.
