Contact Center Overview
Your contact center is an initiative dashboard where you have complete control over your contact actions. This sort of granular control, coupled with powerful automation, gives you the edge as a coach.
Adding Contacts
We make it very easy to add contacts to Onboard Me. You have 3 options when it comes to getting contacts into your account:
1. Add a contact manually
- Select this option and enter your contact details
2. Sync your account with another platform's API
We have direct integrations with the APIs of these apps (Mindbody does charge a fee, which we pass on to you).
- Mindbody - Select and follow the instructions and set up your payment.
- Zen Planner - Select and import your Zen contacts then sync your account.
3. Import your contacts using our super easy CSV wizard
- Note: It is very important to follow the directions when importing your lists. We have a very strict No Spam rule. Only accept lists that you have permission to contact.
Help Center
Getting help is a 24/7/365 piece of cake. Here are all the ways we can help:
Our extensive knowledge base for manual searches
- Go to https://help.onboardme.io and check out our detailed support articles. Each article is loaded with images, GIFS, and quick training menus that take you to a specific area you wish to learn about.
Our Support Bot
- This thing is amazing. Open support chat and type the name of the feature you wish to learn about or the feature you need support with. For example: if you need help with playbooks, type "Playbooks" or "Playbook" into the chatbox. This will trigger the Playbooks bot and get you the answers you need FAST!
Live Chat
If the support bot can't help you, we have Live Chat that usually responds within an hour to get you the help you need. About 95% of all questions we get can be solved with our knowledge base and support bot, but if more help is needed, our live chat hours are M-F (9-5 Eastern time, USA).

Contact Dashboard
Your contact dashboard offers 2 ways to view your contacts: list view or grid view. In the list view, you can see easily see all the details of your client at a glance.
- Full Name
- Profile
- Joined Date
- Phone
- Temperature
- Current Tab
- Last Action
- And more
Contact Tabs
Contact tabs are similar to stages on a pipeline. We have default tabs, but you can configure these to your desire. It is recommended that when you import your contacts you also segment them into these tabs. For instance, you would import all your leads into the leads tab then move them using bulk action > contacts > switch tabs to the desired tab.
Do this for all your lists.
Our default tabs are as follows:
Leads
- Made Contact
- Prequalified
- Appointment Booked
- Appointment Showed
- Offer Made
Trials
- Active Trial
- Inactive Trial
Clients
- Active Client
- Inactive Client
Staff
- Active Staff
- Inactive Staff
- Vendors
Lost
The lost tab is where you should move new leads that have not responded to any attempts at follow-up (for another offering, a gift, or a reactivation campaign).
Dashboard Views
In your dashboard, you have the option to see your contacts in a list view or a grid view. We recommend keeping your dashboard in list view if you have more than 100 contacts. The grid view can create scroll issues with larger lists.
The list view is also required for effective bulk actions with larger contact lists.
Contact Filters
At the top of your contact table in list view, you can click on the names of the table header and this will open up a filter.
You can filter the following data points:
- Name
- Joined date
- Phone
- Temperature
- Status
- The last action that was taken by the contact
Each filter has subfilters like:
- Starts with
- Ends with
- Contains
Using these subfilters you can quickly find what you are looking for.
Bulk Action Menu
Bulk actions can set you free! Imagine being able to take 4 different actions with 400 people in 2 minutes. With bulk actions, you can do this. In fact, you can complete 38 different tasks with up to 500 people at a time!
Send a reactivation campaign to one group. Invite another group to a workshop that night. Add another group to an upcoming challenge playbook and send an important form that needs to fill out to a fourth group. You can do all of this through text message, email, or both!
