A great membership onboarding experience

Our Customer's Happiness and Success, we are frequently inquired about ways to attract new members. However, we are rarely requested by our clients how to best greet new members. It sets an important precedent for engaging and welcoming those who join your business and makes a good impression. There are four key areas we have identified to help new members feel comfortable and relaxed instantly.

The majority of poor customer onboarding experience that I've witnessed for clients is due to the lack of instructions or information regarding what the client should be doing first upon the initial sign-up.

My clients are advised to think that people who are brand new don't know anything about how to navigate the program they've bought. The solution is to use a variety of strategies.

Designing a memorable redirect page with clear directions for next steps, or even instructs the new member to look for your emails every day to receive an email welcoming them that addresses every query a new member could need to know. (This sounds trivial, but most customers do not spend their time on the information.)

Notifying members when new content is made available as well as reminders of how they can access that content.

Based on my own experience, the majority of instances where people stop auto-renewing at the moment they join result from insufficient onboarding , or a absence of any guidance.

2. A preview of the new contents and the advantages

A different strategy that is effective is to send previews of content for members as well as other perks prior to when they're released. Members will be able to have something new to look forward to and keep track of.

It is possible to do this by mailing out emails specifically targeted towards new members who've signed up within a recent timeframe (that users can decide on).

3. Social engagement

I've advised one customer to show an awe-inspiring review to new members on social media. The positive result because newly-joined members are noticed, and future members are able to see the positive social proof of the good aspect. This is a win-win.

Another approach to achieve this is by asking for new members to answer the welcome email by providing their Instagram handles or Facebook URL in order that they receive an acknowledgment. Some of our customers utilize a social proof tool named FOMO that integrates into Stripe and allows pop-ups to be displayed on their websites.

4. Assist new members in building equity

If you ask new members to tell new members what type(s) of content they'd love to read immediately will make them feel as if they are an interest in other members. When members are encouraged to provide this type of feedback and then decide to follow up with feedback on the query, it will boost confidence immediately. This can be done via email, inviting members to reply to the welcome message.

Conclusion

It is true that the actions a consumer takes to develop a connection with their clients is going to be an important aspect for retention and could open the way to expanding possibilities of revenue. This increases the likelihood that a member will accept the notion of an offer  and will provide higher value in the time.
