The Accelerator onboarding program is designed to provide you with the resources you need to get up and running on Totango as quickly as possible.

Designed for busy teams juggling many responsibilities, this program walks you through the process of launching Totango to your team for day-to-day customer management. Through a series of live sessions and check-ins, as well as a library of videos and courses, we’ll teach you to integrate all the required customer data needed to start managing your customer communications and set up your first automated business process—onboarding or risk mitigation.

What's the objective of the accelerator program?

By the end of the accelerator program, you will know how to:

1. Integrate with your first system of record for key account and contact data 
2. Start managing customer communications and team meetings in Totango
3. Set the metrics for customer health
4. (Optional) Build your first onboarding or risk business process in our Manage Onboarding Projects or Detect Risk SuccessBLOCs

As part of our commitment to your success, the accelerator program is included with your subscription.

Who is the accelerator program for?

This program is designed for participants who:

1. Want to work at your own pace: Accelerator is specifically designed for our customers that have a need for flexibility and independence. Using an iterative, self-enabled approach, we'll teach you the skills and give you the resources to get started and to keep building your customer journey with Totango.
2. Onboard customers using a high touch or project-based model: Throughout the program, we will configure the Manage Onboarding Projects SuccessBLOC. 
3. You sell one product: Businesses who have less complexity or that want to build one program at a time benefit most from this program. Totango allows for infinite levels in your account structure/hierarchy, but this program focuses on flat or 2-customer levels.

   Refer to our Planning Account Hierarchies course or take our hierarchy questionnaire for more information.
