Client Onboarding Kit

Client Onboarding Kit — Welcome pack, intake questionnaire, scope of work and kickoff agenda for service businesses.

The first two weeks decide whether a client relationship runs smoothly or turns into scope creep and chasing. This kit gives freelancers, agencies and service businesses four ready-to-edit Word documents — a welcome pack, an intake questionnaire, a scope of work and a kickoff agenda — plus a plain-language guide on running onboarding so expectations are set once, in writing, at the start.

What's inside

• Welcome Pack Template (DOCX): what the client gets, how you work, communication channels and response times — filled with example content from a fictional design studio
• Client Intake Questionnaire (DOCX): fill-in questions organised by section — business background, goals, scope, assets and approvals
• Scope of Work Template (DOCX): deliverables, timeline, revisions policy, out-of-scope list and sign-off block, shown as a worked example
• Kickoff Meeting Agenda (DOCX): a one-hour agenda that ends with owners, dates and next steps agreed
• Onboarding Guide (PDF): the first 48 hours, boundary-setting scripts, scope-creep replies, red flags checklist and a worked example thread
• All example names, companies and figures are fictional and illustrative — replace them with your own

How it works

Open the DOCX files in Word, Google Docs or LibreOffice and replace the example text with your own details — the layout, spacing and structure are already done. The PDF guide walks you through step by step, with ready-to-use wording you can adapt.
