THE 3 DOCUMENTS IT GENERATES
——————————————————

✦ Welcome Letter
Personalized, warm, professional first impression. Shows your
client name, project name, start date, end date, kickoff meeting
details (optional), project summary, main goal, first week action
items (up to 5), and a personal closing note. Auto-populates from
your saved profile — your name, title, working hours, response
time, and preferred communication channel appear on every letter.

✦ Client Questionnaire
Dynamic questions that adapt to your project type — choose from
Brand & Design, Web Development, Content & Copywriting, Marketing
& Social Media, Photography & Video, Consulting, or General.
Toggle entire sections on or off. Add up to 5 custom questions of
your own. "Complete and return by" date defaults to today + 5 days
so deadlines stay clear.

✦ How We Work Guide
Your end-to-end process documented professionally. 4–5 phases with
descriptions and durations. Revision policy (1/2/3/unlimited rounds,
feedback method, what counts as a revision, turnaround time). File
delivery method (Email, Google Drive, Dropbox, WeTransfer, Notion).
File retention period. File formats. Payment schedule (2-3 payments
with descriptions, amounts, due dates). Late payment policy.
Emergency contact policy. Out-of-office policy. Everything your
client needs to know — in one polished document.

——————————————————
SAVE YOUR PROFILE ONCE
——————————————————

Set your details one time — every future client kit fills
automatically:

✦ Full name / business name and title
✦ Email, phone, website
✦ Working hours and response time
✦ Preferred communication channel (Email / Slack / WhatsApp / Teams)
✦ Business logo (PNG, SVG, or JPG — transparent background
recommended)

Without a logo, your initials appear as an elegant monogram on the
Welcome Letter header. With a logo, you get a fully branded
letterhead.

——————————————————
PRINT ALL 3 — ONE PDF
——————————————————

Click "Print All 3" to export all three documents as a single PDF
with proper page breaks (Welcome Letter → Questionnaire → How We
Work Guide). Send to your client as one attachment. Or use the
individual print buttons on each tab if you want them as separate
files. Either way: clean, professional, ready.

——————————————————
6 THEMES + CUSTOM BRAND COLOR
——————————————————

Choose from 6 preset color themes or pick any hex color from the
color picker — match your brand exactly. The theme applies across
all three documents instantly, including the printed PDFs.

——————————————————
HOW IT WORKS
——————————————————

1. Open freelancer-client-onboarding.html in Chrome
2. Save your profile once (name, hours, channel, logo)
3. Enter client name, project details, dates, kickoff info
4. Select project type — questionnaire updates automatically
5. Toggle questionnaire sections, add custom questions
6. Customize your process phases, payment schedule, policies
7. Click "Print All 3" → single PDF → send to client

Works offline on Windows, Mac, and Linux. Best experience on
desktop or laptop (the tool uses a side-by-side form + live
preview layout).

——————————————————
WHY SEND ALL 3 TOGETHER
——————————————————

Clients who receive the Welcome Letter, Questionnaire, and How We
Work Guide at the same time feel professionally handled from day
one. It signals that you have a clear process — which means fewer
questions, less micromanagement, and smoother projects.

The Pro Tip: never start work without a completed questionnaire.
Every assumption made without it costs you time and revisions
later. A client who won't complete a questionnaire is telling you
something important about how the project will go.

——————————————————
BONUS: CLIENT ONBOARDING CHECKLIST
——————————————————

A professionally designed 2-page PDF with 28 checklist items
across 3 phases:

✦ Before Sending the Kit (12 items) — profile setup, project
details, customizations, preview review, theme selection
✦ After Sending the Kit (8 items) — first week follow-through,
questionnaire return tracking, kickoff confirmation
✦ Kickoff Meeting Agenda (8 items) — goals, process, timeline,
feedback method, payment, communication, Q&A

Plus a Pro Tip box to read before every new project. Print it
and pin it above your desk — never miss a step again.

——————————————————
NATURAL COMPANION
——————————————————

Pairs perfectly with the Freelancer Proposal & Contract Generator
(also available at ToolNestStudio):

Proposal accepted → Contract signed → Onboarding Kit sent →
Project begins.

This is the bridge between "yes we'll work together" and "let's
start." Without it, that bridge is full of email back-and-forth,
scattered Google Docs, and questionnaire-less guesswork.

——————————————————
PERFECT FOR
——————————————————

✦ Freelance designers, developers, writers, photographers,
consultants
✦ Solo agency owners and small studio founders
✦ Anyone tired of writing the same onboarding email for the
100th time
✦ Anyone losing time to "wait, what was the brief again?"
✦ Anyone who's started work without a questionnaire and regretted it
