In short

How do I automatically onboard new courier business accounts?

WebRun detects every new business account in Onfleet, drafts a personalised welcome email with setup instructions in Gmail, and alerts your account manager in Slack to review and send. No welcome email reaches the customer until it has been approved, so every first impression is polished and human.

  • New business accounts receive a personalised welcome within hours of being created
  • Account managers are alerted immediately so no new relationship goes cold
  • Every welcome email is reviewed before it reaches the customer

Questions, answered

Will the welcome email be sent automatically when an account is created?

No. The welcome email is saved as a Gmail draft for your account manager to review and personalise before sending. Nothing goes to the new customer without approval.

Can I customise the welcome email template?

Yes. Give WebRun your preferred tone, a sample email, or specific instructions and it will follow them for every new account.

What if a test account is accidentally created in Onfleet?

Because the draft is held for review, no email reaches anyone from a test account. Your account manager sees it in Slack and can discard the draft before sending.

Put this on autopilot.
