About This Automation

Client onboarding at advisory firms involves manual contract verification, CRM data entry, intake form distribution, document collection, and kickoff scheduling spread across multiple tools and days.

Automation captures contract signatures, populates client records, distributes and tracks intake forms, organizes documents, and schedules kickoff calls in a unified workflow. The result is faster onboarding, cleaner data, and clients engaged within days instead of weeks.

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Contract Signedtrigger

Automation is triggered when a new client contract status changes to signed. Client details are automatically pulled from the contract record.

2. Create Client Record

Client record is automatically created or updated with contract details, company name, contact information, and engagement start date.

3. Send Intake Form via Email

A personalized intake form link is automatically sent to the primary contact with a deadline and clear instructions.

4. Monitor and Chase Intake

The automation monitors form submission status and automatically sends reminder emails if the intake is not completed within 2 days. A human reviews any non-responses after 5 days.

5. Sync Intake Data to CRM

Completed intake form responses are automatically parsed and synced to the client record, populating company background, team structure, and project goals.

6. Organize Documents in Drive

Documents uploaded with the intake form are automatically organized into a client folder with consistent naming and folder structure.

7. Schedule Kickoff Call

A link is automatically sent to the client with the advisor's available slots. Once booked, a calendar invite is created and shared with all parties.

8. Send Welcome Sequence

A welcome email with company resources, onboarding checklist, and next steps is automatically sent to the client. A summary notification is sent to the advisor.
