Use cases Onboarding

Get new hires productive in week one.

Give new hires answers about how the job works. Sticky shows where each answer came from and finds the right person when the answer is missing.

An example week

Same new hire. Two different weeks.

Follow Amir, new in Sales at Nordlys

  1. Day 0, before he starts

    Without Opmore: A welcome email: start Monday 08:30, ask for Lina at reception, bring ID. Nothing about the job itself.

    With Opmore: He also gets a book about Nordlys and his role, in his own language, and listens to it on the way in.We write it from your playbook. He listens free in the ElevenReader app.

  2. Day 1, Monday

    Without Opmore: HR, IT, a tour, lunch with the team. Forty new names. His manager wrote the first-week plan last night, from memory.

    With Opmore: Same admin. But Sticky knows his seat and has today's focus ready: three tasks from a first-week plan built from your playbook.

  3. Day 2, Tuesday

    Without Opmore: He reads the handbook on the Drive. Three quote templates, all called final. His buddy says “just ask me”, but she is on calls all day.

    With Opmore: He asks Sticky instead of hunting. The answer comes with the right file and where it came from.

  4. Day 3, Wednesday

    Without Opmore: The sales meeting runs in fast Swedish, and Swedish isn't his first language. He nods along and misses half of it.

    With Opmore: He asks in Arabic. Sticky answers in Arabic, from your Swedish material.

  5. Day 4, Thursday

    Without Opmore: First real deal: can he give Hansson 15% off? It is not written anywhere, and the one person who knows is on leave. He guesses.

    With Opmore: Sticky doesn't know? It asks Lina, who owns pricing. Her answer comes back to Amir and is written into the playbook.

  6. Day 5, Friday

    Without Opmore: The end-of-week check-in. “How’s it going?” “Fine.” The gaps show up at day 30.

    With Opmore: Lina opens the Tasks board and sees his week: four of five first-week tasks done, and his end-of-day notes. No need to ask “how’s it going?”

  7. The next hire

    Without Opmore: Sara starts in Sales and asks the same discount question. Same interruption, and the answer is still in one head.

    With Opmore: Sara asks the same question and gets Lina's answer in seconds, because Amir asked it first.

In this example week: without Opmore, colleagues got interrupted 12 times and 0 answers were written down. With Opmore, 2 interruptions, and both answers were written down for the next hire.

The questions stay. The answers stay too.

Why it matters

Answers first. The right person when they’re missing.

A new hire's questions land on whoever sits closest, and the answer stays in that chat. The next hire asks the same thing.

With OpmoreNew hires get answers with a source, and the questions nobody wrote down reach the person who owns them.

  • Answers with a source

    Sticky answers from the documents you share and shows where each answer came from.

  • The right person when it’s missing

    When nothing is written down, Sticky sends the question to the person who owns it. They answer once.

  • Saved for the next hire

    The reply goes into your playbook, so the next person gets it straight away.

How to get started

Start with one role. Share the materials you give new hires and name the people who own the decisions they’ll run into.
