Select Clients from the hub menu
Click Add Client in the top right
Choose how to add the client (see options below)
Complete the details
Click Save

Launchpad can help you find and auto-fill business details:
Click Search Business
Type the business name
Results appear from Google Places and ATDW
Click a result to select it
Details are automatically filled in
Review and adjust as needed

If your organisation has sponsorship relationships, new clients may be automatically assigned based on their region or category.
Tips for adding clients
Use search first — it's faster and more accurate
Choose the right type — helps with filtering and reporting later
Add contact details — makes it easy to reach them
Be consistent — use standard naming conventions
Bulk importing clients
Have lots of clients to add? Use bulk import:

Upload a CSV file with your client data
Map the columns to Launchpad fields
Review and confirm the import
Building your client database is the first step to better relationship management.
