Streamlining Client Onboarding with Automated Workflow & Communication
This project automates the client onboarding process using an n8n workflow combined with Airtable and Slack integrations. It ensures client data is consistently captured, stored, and communicated, significantly reducing manual intervention and enhancing overall client experience.
Manual client onboarding often leads to:
- Data entry errors
- Inefficient internal communication
- Delays in client engagement and follow-ups
The goal was to create an automated, reliable, and scalable solution to address these challenges effectively.
- n8n - Workflow automation engine
- Airtable - Centralized client information database
- Slack - Instant internal notifications
- Excalidraw - Workflow diagramming and documentation
- Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/client-onboarding-automation.git-
