My Exact SMMA Client Onboarding Process

📲 How To Onboard NEW SMMA Clients in 2021
In today's video, I dive into the SMMA onboarding process I use within my own agency, the Affluent Agency.
Onboarding is the time to address questions and concerns and ensure the client understands the services available.
It can also be the most time-consuming part of the relationship because you’re just getting to know your new client.
You’re learning about their products or services, goals, brand, and brand voice, not to mention requesting access to all of their social media accounts, logins, and tools they might already be using.
If your client onboarding process isn’t ironed out, there might be a lot of kinks in the process that can irritate your new client (and you) before you even start.
"The key is to set realistic customer expectations, and then not to just meet them, but to exceed them - preferably in unexpected and helpful ways." - Sir Richard Branson

    Woah! This is just perfect and great timing! I've been redoing my SMMA systems and I'm now on my Onboarding process. Glad that you mention, client communication! I've been considering if I should use slack for client communication. You are so right about WhatsApp! I use this too with my current client and our communication is so much easier. Thank you for sharing so much value! 🖤🖤🖤

  • @tehgringe

    3 жыл бұрын

    I would suggest WA Business, the API is for much larger organisations where as Business is ideal for 1-1 customer comms. If you need more than one user/agent to access the account, then Business API is what you would then go for. Solo operator use Business.
