How to improve onboarding with Raccoon AI

1

Map the onboarding journey

Define what new hires need to know, do, and experience in their first days, weeks, and months.

First impressions matter

Onboarding sets the tone for the entire employment experience. A great start builds engagement; a poor one creates doubt.

CSM onboarding at Brightspot (Series B, B2B SaaS). Problem: 4-month ramp is too long, no consistency. Define milestones: Day 1, Week 1, Month 1 (5 accounts), Month 2 (15 accounts), Month 3 (hitting targets). Include "Definition of Ramped" criteria.

2

Create onboarding content

Develop presentations, guides, and materials that communicate everything new hires need.

Don't assume knowledge

New hires don't know your acronyms, systems, or unwritten rules. Explicit documentation prevents confusion and speeds productivity.

Create "CSM Survival Guide" for Brightspot (<20 pages): product overview, customer segments, tools walkthrough (Salesforce, Gainsight, Gong), renewal playbook (90/60/30-day touchpoints), escalation paths, glossary (ARR, NRR, QBR, health score). Link to detailed docs.

3

Build interactive elements

Create checklists, portals, and interactive tools that guide new hires through onboarding.

Self-service empowerment

Good onboarding tools let new hires progress independently while ensuring they don't miss important steps.

CSM onboarding checklist with due dates: Day 1 (laptop, Slack, manager 1:1), Week 1 (product certification, shadow 3 calls, team intros, system access), Week 2 (lead first call with backup, QBR training, review 5 accounts). Make it trackable by manager.

4

Automate the workflow

Set up automated reminders, scheduled content delivery, and triggered communications.

Consistency at scale

Automation ensures every new hire gets the same quality onboarding regardless of how busy their manager is.

Automated CSM onboarding in BambooHR + Slack: Pre-Day 1 (laptop, accounts, welcome email), Day 1 (CEO video, orientation Zoom), Day 3 (manager check-in reminder), Day 5 (assign certification), Week 2 (first call task), Week 4 (feedback survey), Day 60 (incomplete certification alert).

5

Personalize for roles

Create role-specific onboarding tracks that go beyond general company orientation.

Relevant from day one

Engineers need different onboarding than salespeople. Role-specific content gets new hires productive faster.

Brightspot has 4 departments. Create shared vs role-specific matrix by week. Shared: orientation, product, benefits. Role-specific: Engineering (dev env, code review, on-call), Sales (CRM, demo cert, territory), CSM (Gainsight, renewals, accounts), Marketing (brand, campaigns, content).

6

Measure and improve

Gather feedback and metrics to continuously improve the onboarding experience.

Onboarding never finished

Collect feedback from every cohort. Measure time-to-productivity. Iterate on what works and fix what doesn't.
