The process begins with a "Getting Started" session led by a sales consultant and attended by at least one member of your club’s staff. This session, which lasts up to 1.5 hours, introduces you to the platform and its main features. Early access to the system is often provided so you can start exploring before the session.
2. Onboarding and Review Session
After the initial session, the onboarding team schedules a "Review Session" with your club’s designated lead user (often called the "ClubRight Ninja"). This session, typically up to 1 hour, ensures everything is set up correctly and that your lead user is confident in using the system.
3. 10-Day Onboarding Process
A structured 10-day onboarding period follows. During this time, the Customer Success Team helps with:
Verifying your system setup
Setting up the Members App
Integrating with partners (such as payment providers and access control systems)
Importing customer data
Connecting ClubRight to your website
Setting up access control and payment systems
Listing your club on relevant directories, if requested
You’ll have regular contact with the onboarding team to ensure a smooth transition, especially if you’re migrating from another software platform.
4. Ongoing Support
After onboarding, the Help Desk and Onboarding Team are available for ongoing support via live chat and email. They typically respond within four hours during business days.
5. Training and Internal Rollout
One staff member (the "ClubRight Ninja") receives in-depth training and is responsible for training the rest of your team, ensuring everyone is comfortable using the system.
