Inside the Motto Onboarding Process
As you step into a partnership with Motto, you’re not just starting another project; you’re embarking on a path to redefine your brand’s future. Our onboarding process is the first step. It is meticulously designed to ensure a seamless integration of our teams, visions, and values. Let’s walk through this one-hour meeting that sets the stage for our successful collaboration.
“Onboarding is the first step in building trust and collaboration.”
Meet the Team
A successful branding project hinges on the people behind it. During the onboarding call, clients are introduced to the Director of Client Experience, who will guide the project. This step involves a clear delineation of roles and responsibilities, setting the stage for a streamlined and efficient workflow.
Understanding the Scope
Clarity is the key to success. Together, we’ll dive into the scope of work, outlining not just the deliverables and timelines, but also the mission that unites us. This comprehensive overview ensures that we’re all aiming for the same targets, with a clear understanding of what success looks like for your project.
“Weekly syncs are the heartbeat of our project rhythm.”
Syncing Up Weekly
Consistency breeds excellence. Our Director of Client Experience would like to schedule a weekly 15-minute sync with you and our project lead. Consider this your weekly checkpoint – a time to align, adjust, and affirm that we’re tracking toward our common goals. These meetings are the pulse of our project, ensuring that we move in harmony toward the finish line.
Friday Updates
Transparency and progress go hand in hand. Every Friday, you’ll receive an update that paints a high-level picture of our week’s achievements and what’s on the horizon. This isn’t just an update; it’s a snapshot of our journey together, keeping you informed and engaged every step of the way.
Feedback: The Motto Way
Good feedback is the lifeline of a successful project. We’ll encourage you to consolidate your thoughts into actionable insights. This approach not only streamlines communication but also ensures that we’re always moving forward with clarity and purpose. Your feedback is a valuable tool, shaping the project to meet and exceed your expectations.
“Effective communication is not just about exchanging information, it's about fostering understanding.”
Navigating Timelines
Timeliness is non-negotiable. We’re here to ensure that your project stays on track, navigating through decision-making and scope changes with agility and expertise. Our proactive approach to managing timelines means your project advances smoothly, respecting both the budget and the schedule.
Revisions and Scope Changes
Flexibility within a framework is our mantra. We’ll walk you through our revision process, explaining how we refine concepts and deliverables to perfection. And when the project needs to evolve, we’re ready with solutions. Change orders are handled transparently, ensuring we’re always moving forward and aligned with your evolving needs.
