Automated Client Onboarding for Contractors
When a job is sold, the system sends a welcome message, sets expectations, and keeps the customer informed — following client onboarding best practices automatically.
They Hired You. Now They Don't Know What Happens Next.
A job is sold. The customer is excited. They have no idea what to expect next, when materials arrive, when the crew shows up, or who to call if something comes up.
So they call you. You're on a job. They leave a message. They call again. These are not problem customers — they're customers who weren't given the information they needed upfront.
Professional onboarding costs nothing and eliminates 80% of those check-in calls.
How New Customer Onboarding Works for Your Business
When a job is marked sold, the system automatically sends a welcome message to the customer. It confirms what's happening, sets a timeline, pre-answers the questions they're about to ask, and tells them exactly who to contact if they need something.
Follow-up messages go out at key milestones — materials ordered, crew scheduled, job day reminder. The customer feels informed and taken care of without a single manual message from your team.
Customers who feel well-informed leave better reviews, refer more often, and are easier to work with on the job.

Get StartedCommon Questions
What are client onboarding best practices for contractors?
The best onboarding sends a welcome message immediately when a job is sold, sets clear expectations about timeline and process, pre-answers the questions customers always ask, and provides a contact for anything unexpected. Done well, it cuts check-in calls and increases review quality.
Why does onboarding matter for roofing and HVAC companies?
Customers who don't know what to expect call to check in constantly. Good onboarding pre-answers those questions and reduces the time you spend on the phone managing customer anxiety instead of running jobs.
What does the automated onboarding message include?
Welcome, expected timeline, what happens at each stage, who to contact with questions, and answers to common pre-job questions like "when will materials arrive?" and "what time will the crew be there?" All automated.
When does the welcome message go out?
Immediately when a job is marked sold in your pipeline. No delay, no manual step. The customer hears from you right away — which sets a professional tone from the start.
Does good onboarding improve Google reviews?
Generally yes. Customers who feel informed and well-served throughout the process tend to leave better reviews. The onboarding also creates a natural opening to request a review after the job is done.
