How to onboard new hires with a tracked collection
One link for the ramp, and proof people actually went through it.
4 min read · Updated 2026-06-09To onboard a new hire well, put the ramp materials — deck, battlecards, recorded calls, process docs — into a single Indy Collection and share one link. The Progress view shows exactly who's completed each asset, you can require them in order, ask for a sign-off, and nudge anyone who's behind in one click. It's the proof-of-consumption that a Drive folder can't give you.
Why a folder isn't enough
A Google Drive or Notion folder holds the materials, but it can't tell you whether the new hire actually read them. For onboarding and enablement, 'I sent it' isn't the goal — 'they went through it' is. Without that signal, you find the gaps in week three, in front of a customer.
Build the ramp as a Collection
- Add your ramp assets to one Indy Collection and share a single gated link.
- Turn on the onboarding path so assets unlock in order — a guided ramp, not a free-for-all.
- Watch the Progress view: who's completed what, who's behind, average completion.
- Ask for a sign-off so each hire attests they reviewed it — useful for compliance.
- Nudge anyone who's lagging with one click, no chasing.
Reuse it for the next cohort
Once a ramp works, duplicate the Collection for the next hire or cohort — same assets and order, fresh tracking. Your onboarding gets better every time instead of being rebuilt from scratch.
FAQ
Can I see if a new hire actually completed onboarding?
Yes. An Indy Collection's Progress view shows per-person completion across every asset, plus an optional sign-off attestation — so you have proof of consumption, not just a sent link.
