Onboarding is the action or process of integrating a new employee into an organization or familiarizing a new customer or client with one's products or services.

The onboarding process consists of some videos, some images, and some text. It is step-by-step instruction. Do not just read everything and think "I'm done". Actually execute the steps outlined. For example, if you do not have a PayPal Business account, open one. This might take an hour as well as take 24-48 hours for identity verification with PayPal and so on. Therefore it is critical you do the steps in this checklist so when you get to build your funnel you have everything you need to set things up and start making money!

Eran Funnels is a fantastic Funnel Building software. It has everything you need to create and scale any online business. I am excited to use it myself and I am even more excited you are here to use it too!

BUT....

The software means absolutely nothing without solid education and understanding of what funnels are and how to structure them, how to create them, and all the intricate details that go with making it profitable for you. I am not talking about merely the "software" - I am talking about your entire business model. 

Dot Com Secrets is the absolute MANDATORY book for you to learn about Funnels and having any sort of online business. This is your number 1 book to get. Order it, and ignore buying the upsells of signing up for ClickFunnels software. Eran Funnels provides all the technology you need to implement what is in the book.  But you do need the book. 

Following the book Dot Com Secrets, I highly recommend you buy and read the book Expert Secrets. 

This is really a follow up of the Dot Com Secrets and will align perfectly. It goes deeper into the aspect of building an audience, practical steps for your funnel, and turning your passion and expertise into a career.

Note that there will be upselling when you make the purchase. If you want to get the extra training that is offered in the upsells that is up to you. 

But when it comes to getting the actual software to implement the strategies in the book, ERAN FUNNELS offer everything you need to succeed.

If you are somewhat new, I want to give you instant education while you're waiting for the books to arrive (Dot Com Secrets & Expert Secrets). The video I recorded for my "Business Basics Video Series" and explains why having a funnel is a priority. 

In this video, I mention a course called "How The Online World Really Works". I have since re-packaged that into my $1/day coaching course.

What is important is the actions to take as a result of this video. EranFunnels provides you with everything you need to set up a funnel. But you still need a professional email address and a professional domain, e.g. your name, or whatever name you choose. If you need help choosing a domain name, email support@eranbucai.com to discuss. 

Once you are inside SiteGround. Click the following:

“Websites” 

Pick the domain email you wanted e.g. “eranbucai.com” and click  “Site Tools”

This will open a new window.

On the left bar of the page, you will see various section. Click “Email”

This will open sub-sections. Click sub-section “Accounts”

Add an account name e.g. type “eran” or your name, or “info” or whatever you want the email address to be.

Generate or create your own password.

Once you’ve done it, you’ll see the email address you created at the bottom of that page.

If you do not already have a Gmail account, you should get one. It is simply better to use. The first step you can do is to simply go to "Forwarded" sub-section in SiteGround, enter the new email you created in the blank space under "Forward all messages sent to", and in the second blank space "To email address" type your actual Gmail address. That way whenever someone emails the domain email you just created, it automatically comes to your Gmail. 

There are 2 options to replying from the domain email address. 

See the picture on the right. When you click the section of "Accounts" you will see the email account you created and there are 3 dots on the bottom right. When you click it, you will see the menu to the left. When you click "Log in to Webmail" this will automatically take you to the domain email where you can reply, receive, respond, etc.

I personally do not like to have to log in to Webmail, I prefer it all come to my Gmail. 

Therefore the second option is to click the button "Mail Configuration" and you will have a bunch of numbers and details. You will need to copy and paste those to your Gmail account in the "Settings" and then "Accounts and Import". I am including a picture and link below with the support article from Google on how to set it up step-by-step. It can get technical, I even got help on it when I was setting it up so let me know if you need assistance.

There are a number of options on an email service provider. I use GetResponse and I recommend you do too. This is one of the cheapest in actual fact, has 24/7 support for any technical questions, and most importantly it has easy integrations with lots of online tools. The more you work online, the more you appreciate the importance of simple integrations. You will save yourself a ton of headaches by picking an email provider like GetResponse. 

You can also go with a more expensive option of ActiveCampaign if you want, but I recommend you go with GetResponse. Please click the link to sign up. The cost, when getting started, is roughly $15/month.

I did an onboarding video with one of my clients, Karen, and therefore I am sharing it with you in case you want to get a little tour. Feel free to watch it at 2x or 1.5x speed.

This being a new software tool, you are going to run into questions and uncertainties. The more you use it, the more you are going to also succeed with the tool and the faster you will get.

After doing a number of walkthroughs with the first sign-ups of EranFunnels, I recorded a tour of the software explaining how to use it and all the major features. This is a 40 minutes video walkthrough. No fluff, just straight walking you step by step to introduce to you to the features and how to use it.

There is a learning curve, but honestly, it's minor. You'll get used to it quickly. 

There will be a more complete course soon with step by step on the entire software that you'll be able to follow.

As part of signing up for GetResponse using my affiliate link, I am giving you a short mini-course about GetResponse and email marketing for you to have some additional content and direction on exactly how to get started and how I use GetResponse. These are just the fundamentals. 

Keep in mind that GetResponse has excellent support on their own right regardless of any tutorial I make. And their YouTube channel has a ton of info as well. Not to mention the numerous free courses they offer.
