Val Geisler - Email Onboarding Tear Down: Harvest

There's a bit of both art and science in this whole onboarding experience.

You have to be an artist and show people what you want them to see.

And you have to be a scientist and understand what makes people tick, what moves the needle.

This onboarding tear down is a story of lessons in art and science.

It's a familiar tale and, if you've been following along with these tear downs over the last few weeks, you might start to notice a pattern we're diving into here.

The difference with this tear down is that I've pulled in other experts, examples, and real life lessons to prove that this isn't just my opinion here, we're talking about proven facts you can apply to your own onboarding process.

Is onboarding ever really done?
