Deterministic route map

The customer chooses the route. No qualification is needed.

This post-sale workflow uses a fixed answer rule on the kickoff-preference question. The graph sends each customer to the matching next step without asking AI to reinterpret a clear choice.

Before you publish

Make four workflow decisions, not 40 design decisions.

Onboarding should reflect what your customer bought and how your team delivers it. Replace the example package, tools, ownership language, and resources before publishing.

  1. Step 1

    Match the purchased offer

    Replace the example plans with the packages or services customers can actually arrive from.

  2. Step 2

    Define the first outcome

    Tune the goal and timeline questions to the milestones your onboarding team can support.

  3. Step 3

    Name the handoff owner

    Ask for the customer-side owner and connect notifications or webhooks to the right internal team.

  4. Step 4

    Connect both preferences

    Replace the calendar placeholder and attach the correct guide, checklist, or confirmation to the self-serve route.

Use it for the right job

Onboarding starts after the customer says yes.

Good fit

  • SaaS teams collecting goals, tools, timing, and ownership before implementation.
  • Agencies or services teams preparing a new-client kickoff.
  • Businesses offering customers a clear choice between live and self-serve setup.

Choose another workflow

  • Pre-sale qualification or project inquiries from prospects who have not been accepted.
  • A full customer-success platform, project plan, support desk, or training portal.
  • A contract, invoice, payment, or managed legal-signature workflow.

Customer onboarding form FAQ

Questions before you use the template

What is a customer onboarding form?

A customer onboarding form collects the goals, package, team, tools, timeline, implementation owner, and setup preference needed to begin delivery after a purchase or accepted engagement.

What questions should a client onboarding form include?

Ask what was purchased, who will use it, the first desired outcome, existing tools, target launch timing, implementation owner, and preferred kickoff path. Add only information the delivery team will use.

Is this the same as a project inquiry form?

No. A project inquiry happens before acceptance and helps evaluate fit. Customer onboarding happens after the sale and gathers the context needed to deliver the agreed product or service.

Does the onboarding template use AI qualification?

No. The included route uses deterministic logic on the customer’s kickoff preference. AI wording can be enabled separately, but it does not control the route.

Can customers choose between a call and a guide?

Yes. The included preference question connects “Yes, book me in” to a calendar destination and the other answer to a setup-guide ending. Both can be edited.

Can I send onboarding answers to another system?

Yes. Every plan supports webhooks for complete submission payloads. Qualyo does not replace a customer-success or project-management system.
