New Hire Onboarding Checklist - Help Please

Hey CompanyCam and Company!

I don't think the thread title articulates what I am asking for all that well. If anyone could kindly point me in the right direction of a new hire checklist that is strictly CompanyCam oriented, that would be great. We are in process of expanding and with some minor turnover I feel like I spend a couple of hours each week going over how to do basic functions like entering a new project. How to edit a photo after taking it, how to choose a photo tag versus a project tag.

Nonetheless, any insight is appreciated, come one come all, I will not be disappointed to learn how others are teaching their most valuable assets to use their most valuable assets throughout the course of the work day.
We don't have a checklist. We had one big onboarding in the beginning, and then since then we have individually acclimated new users. We use Notion and their knowledge base to document processes in general. I should document CompanyCam now that you mention it.

💰Bonuses

We have bi-annual profit sharing, that is determined by a formula of consisting of value score, role, and time with the company. We have 4 core values, and the value score is 0-2 scale for each. 0 is lacking, 1 needs improvement, 2 succeeding in that area.

Scores are communicated. No one knows what the bonus will be until it arrives. Everyone is guaranteed one, but again, it's completely determined by what is put into the company.

💰Bonuses

Let talk about employee bonuses. How often do you give them if at all? How much don you give? What determines the amount and frequency?

I am now a very small company after heavily downsizing. I have given many frequent bonuses in the past but noticed that after sometime it was expected, even if drive, workmanship and work quality decreased (exponentially sometimes). I’m looking into better system rather than just “whenever” as I do want to be generous with profits, but also don’t want the same thing happening where I started feeling walked on afterwards…

🎉 Big Update: New Homepage for the CompanyCam Community!

Whoa, we have 150+ members already! You all are amazing!

We just flipped the switch on a fresh new homepage at community.companycam.com. Here's what's different:

What's New:
Instead of landing in The Blue Room, you'll now see a live feed of ALL the hottest discussions across every forum—all in one spot. Think of it as your community command center where nothing gets missed. You can also navigate to new areas like "New" or "Hot" or "Following" to see content generated by your fellow users based on what is new, what is driving the most discussion or who you are following.

Business merging

Ah Mary-Anne! Separate from CompanyCam, my No. 1 day-to-day priority, I've thought about doing the same with some of my other side businesses that I do for fun (Session Solos, JTal Guitars, etc.). The content creation stuff has been the most rewarding and takes up more time than the others, so I've thought about rolling it all up under that. I've got some experience with it in terms of being in S-Corps, multiple LLC setups in the past but not enough to guide anyone but myself yet.

This is me saying, I'm considering the same, on a much smaller level than you (way smaller lol) and I'm willing to trade notes while not having a ton of answers yet. ;)
I would love that! I’m super torn as my accountant wants to wait until we see the numbers for 2025 but I’m drowning in paperwork and just want to pull the trigger for beginning of January.
