2. Setup your Coworks subscription payment here.
3. Migrate your data
Next let's migrate any members or teams that you have signed up already. Do you have a CSV that you can send over? We can import them into our platform following the instructions here or we can load them manually. The main thing is making sure billing is set up before adding any members so that we can put them on the proper billing cycles. This means all of your plans need to be created first so that you can assign them to the right members.
Data to import
Members/Teams via Contact csv import
Plans (must be manually created)
Rooms/Equipment, Offices, Desks (via Room csv import)
Bookings (via Booking csv import) note: will need to set a date for final transition from previous system.
(optional) Billing credit cards note: manual sync may be required with billing provider
4. Member Experience Content Creation: Make sure your resources, events, and rooms are up to date so that the app looks good for members.
Make sure you've downloaded the mobile app! Find out how here.
The success and buy-in of your member apps start with YOU. We've created an experience that depends on you as the manager creating valuable resources in our resources center, posting relevant events with images, encouraging member profile photos, and adding high quality conference room photos.
