Setting up an onboarding programme

Automated sequence that walks new packmates through the platform in their first 30 days.

The onboarding programme builder lets you create a scheduled sequence of prompts, challenges, and check-ins that guide new packmates through the platform automatically.

Building a programme

  1. 1Go to /admin/onboarding-programme.
  2. 2Tap "New programme."
  3. 3Add steps — each step has a trigger (e.g., "Day 1", "Day 7", "Day 14") and an action (a notification prompt, a specific challenge unlock, a pulse for the member).
  4. 4Set the programme as the default for new joiners or assign it manually.

What a great onboarding programme includes

  • Day 1 → Welcome message + first check-in prompt + activation checklist
  • Day 3 → "Have you met your pack?" prompt → link to pack leaderboard
  • Day 7 → First challenge suggestion + streak acknowledgement
  • Day 14 → Wolf Archetype quiz prompt (if not taken)
  • Day 30 → First BetterUs 12 survey unlock + 30-day celebration

Why it matters

Left to discover the platform themselves, most new joiners explore 2–3 features and stop. A structured onboarding programme roughly doubles 30-day feature adoption.

Top tips

Make the most of this feature

  1. 1

    Send a personal welcome message from you (not just the system) on Day 1 — it sets the tone.

  2. 2

    Keep each step's action under 5 minutes — new joiners are already overwhelmed.

  3. 3

    Review programme completion rates monthly and iterate on the lowest-performing steps.
