New User Onboarding Resources

The Onboarding Challenge

Rolling out new tools is never easy. Teams usually run into the same problems:

• Some people jump in, others resist

• The same “how do I…” questions get asked again and again

• Early excitement fades without clear guidance

• IT ends up playing full-time Ravenna tutor

• Teams invent their own (sometimes incorrect) workflows

We built these resources to make onboarding smoother and more consistent.

What’s Now Available

📢 Ready-to-Send Announcements

No more staring at a blank Slack message. We’ve created 8 announcement templates for every rollout scenario: quick intros, feature highlights, benefit-driven messages, department rollouts, casual team intros, pilot programs, executive notes, and follow-ups. Each one is customizable with your company’s details and tone.

📚 Complete User Handbooks

We’ve written two full handbooks so your team has everything they need:

• Quirky Edition – Fun, conversational, filled with real examples and visuals. Great for creative or culture-forward teams.

• Simple Edition – Clear, structured, professional. Ideal for enterprises and formal workplaces.

Both editions cover everything from basic requests to advanced approvals, with screenshots, demos, and practical tips.

🗂 Pre-formatted Notion Guides

If your team uses Notion, we’ve got pre-formatted templates ready to drop in. They’re easy to customize, match your existing documentation style, and plug right into your knowledge base.

What’s Inside the Handbooks

• Core features like submitting requests, tracking progress, and approval workflows

• Advanced tips on public vs. private requests, training the knowledge base, and troubleshooting

• Interactive elements with video demos, visual guides, and best practices

Why This Matters

• ⚡ Faster Adoption – Clear guidance from day one means quicker confidence and productivity.

• 🔄 Reduced Support Load – Fewer repeated questions for IT, more self-service answers.

• 🎨 Customizable Content – Tailor announcements and guides to your company’s workflows.

• 📋 Consistent Experience – Every employee gets the same high-quality introduction to Ravenna.

How to Roll This Out

1. Choose your approach – Pick an announcement template and handbook edition that fits your culture.

2. Launch communication – Send your announcement, share the handbook, and pin resources in Slack.

3. Support adoption – Use follow-ups to keep momentum and point people to the docs when questions arise.
