Frequently Asked Questions
What is a client onboarding contract?
A client onboarding contract formalizes the start of a working relationship, covering project scope, communication protocols, tools and access, expectations, and initial payment.
What should be included in a client onboarding process?
Key elements: signed contract, deposit invoice, project brief/questionnaire, access to necessary tools and assets, communication channel setup, and kickoff meeting scheduling.
Why is client onboarding important?
Proper onboarding reduces miscommunication, sets clear expectations, establishes boundaries, and creates a professional first impression that builds trust.
Should I require a deposit before starting work?
Yes. A 25–50% upfront deposit is standard practice. It ensures client commitment and covers your time and expenses in the early project stages.
How do I handle scope changes during a project?
Include a change order clause: any scope changes must be agreed in writing before work begins, with associated cost and timeline adjustments specified.
