Automated Circle Member Onboarding Checklist

As soon as someone joins your Circle community, WebRun checks their new member profile, works through your welcome checklist, books their orientation call on Google Calendar, and alerts your team in Microsoft Teams so someone can personally say hello.

In short

How do I onboard new members automatically in my Circle community?

WebRun checks Circle as soon as someone joins your community, works through your welcome checklist, books their orientation call on Google Calendar, and alerts your team in Microsoft Teams so a real person can say hello. It never messages the new member directly, keeping that first personal welcome entirely in your team's hands.

  • Every new member gets the same onboarding checklist, every time
  • Orientation calls are booked the moment someone joins, not days later
  • The team knows exactly who owns each new member's welcome

Questions, answered

Does WebRun message the new member directly?

No. It books the orientation slot and alerts your team. Reaching out personally to welcome the member is still done by someone on your team.

What's on the welcome checklist?

Whatever your standard onboarding steps are for that space, profile complete, orientation booked, and team notified, checked off in order for every new member.

What if the member doesn't book a time themselves?

WebRun books the next available orientation slot on their behalf so onboarding doesn't stall, and your team can always move it if needed.

Put this on autopilot.
