New Customer Welcome
The initiation of the new customer onboarding process usually includes a welcome message through direct mail, email, SMS text and/or online communication. Many organizations include some form of user guide explaining the upcoming onboarding steps in a flow.
By referencing how the customer can best use and benefit from their account, early usage of the account occurs, growth of the relationship is more likely, and satisfaction increases. JD Power has found that welcome and onboarding messaging should include between 7-9 communications using multiple channels to maximize the benefits.

New Customer Onboarding and Engagement
Beyond the early welcome (that is delivered within 2-5 days of account opening), the new customer onboarding process usually extends an additional 3-6 months. The purpose of these communications is to increase broader usage of the new account.
These communications many times focus on products like mobile banking, digital bill pay, direct deposit and additional services like mobile deposit, account alerts, etc.

Customer Cross-Sell
In the past, the majority of cross-selling was done by branch personnel when the customer visited the branch office to make deposits, check balances, cash checks, etc. Over the past decade, more than 60% of the branch traffic has moved to digital channels, increasing the importance of digital channels to cross-sell additional services. Some organizations also have implemented highly targeted appointment setting programs with the intention of replicating the 1to1 engagement from the past.
