Beyond Onboarding: Turning Customers Into Advocates

When was the last time you mastered a new skill on the first attempt? 

Chances are that even if the basics felt clear, real confidence only happened after plenty of practice, feedback, and support.

For many healthcare companies, often onboarding stops after a quick introduction or demo. But what happens after the manual is handed off? 

Too often, this lack of follow-up stalls adoption, increases frustration, and causes a slow drift of once-excited users, leading patients to miss out on technology that could genuinely help them.

The Cost of Missing Customer Education

Without thoughtful follow-through, especially for clinicians, the gap between intention and confident use widens:

• Clinicians don’t fully adopt or use your solution as intended

• Negative outcomes, disappointing reviews, and missed renewals become common

• Churn quietly erodes all the progress and potential your team has worked so hard to create

Questions for Healthcare Leaders

As you evaluate your training approach, ask yourself:

• Is your onboarding hands-on, interactive, and tailored to each clinical role?

• Is there a clear pathway for ongoing support after onboarding ends?

• Are you guiding the customer journey beyond day one, building real confidence with practice opportunities and feedback?

• Do customers receive actionable guidance, timely feedback, and know where to turn for quick answers?

If any of these are missing, your company is losing unseen value with every new customer.

Improving Outcomes

When I partner with healthcare organizations, I focus on:

• Identifying exactly where onboarding breaks down

• Designing a training program tailored to each clinical role and workflow

• Building ongoing support systems to create confident users who become advocates
