Freelancer / Agency Client-Launch Workbook + Template Bundle: The Plug-&-Play Client Onboarding System
TL;DR: If you run client projects, you don’t need another blank planner. You need a structured client onboarding workbook that turns chaos into clarity from Day 1. That’s exactly what the Freelancer / Agency Client-Launch Workbook + Template Bundle delivers—guided intake, scope of work templates, project timeline planning, deliverables checklists, and revision trackers. It’s a plug-&-play client launch system with higher perceived value than generic planners, so you can charge more and deliver faster.

Why freelancers and agencies need more than a generic planner
Freelancers and small agencies face the same recurring challenges: vague briefs, unclear scope, endless revisions, and delayed payments. Most planners don’t fix that—they’re just blank boxes.
This client onboarding template bundle is different. It’s built for professionals who need process + structure:
A client intake form for freelancers so you start with clarity.
A scope of work template that locks expectations.
A project deliverables checklist to ensure nothing slips through the cracks.
A project timeline template for realistic deadlines.
A revision tracker to manage changes with confidence.

Stop firefighting projects. Start running a system.
To get the full system experience, I highly recommend pairing the Client-Launch Workbook with a high-quality physical desk organizer (for your printed worksheets, notes, and contracts) and a 3-in-1 wireless charging stand (so your tablet/phone is always powered and in view). They complement your workflow, reduce friction, and look great on camera when you share your process with clients.
