Guests in your workspace have unique needs and objectives. You may, therefore, want to provide them with onboarding information that is either more narrow or more broad in scope compared to Full Members.

    Ahoy there @jamie👋 Welcome to Slack at ACME!

    We’ve set you up with a Multi-Channel Guest account with access to a handful of channels we’ll use for collaborating.

    Here are the main channels you have access to:

    #introductions — introduce yourself and meet the members of our team;
    #marketing — collaborate on marketing campaigns;
    #deliverables — post content that’s ready for implementation.

    If you have questions ping @georgie or @sammy — they will be happy to help 🤗

    We can’t wait for you to get started!
