Onboarding Information

The onboarding phase consists of your first few weeks as a client with Footbrige Media. This phase officially ends once your website has been launched. During this time we develop your website, check online business listings for any issues we notice, start the process of creating online listings for your company, and begin working with your Google My Bussiness Account. During this time your main point of contact is the on boarding manager. The onboarding process is a step-by-step process that helps us to establish your company within the Footbridge Media system.
