ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT ยท CLIENT ONBOARDING
Client Folder Organization
Many different people access client folders โ Tierra team, clients, and vendors. Following strict guidelines on what's shared with whom (and what level of permissions everyone has) prevents leaks and edits we don't want.
Why this matters
- Give clients and vendors visibility to relevant files
- Prevent clients or vendors from editing, moving, or deleting files
- Prevent vendors from being visible to or interacting with clients
- Prevent clients from seeing version history of key documents
Conventions
For every file and folder below, replace [CLIENT] with the client's full name (matching their folder name).
Icons used:
- ๐ = Folder
- ๐ = Document
- ๐ = Spreadsheet
- ๐ผ๏ธ = Image or Video
- ๐ฝ๏ธ = Deck
- โ = Form
Permissions model
Folders and files use three permission levels:
| Level | Who can access |
|---|---|
| Internal only | Tierra team only |
| Public | Anyone with the link can view |
| Client shared | Client contacts get commenter access at folder level |
Folders shared directly with the client (commenter access for all client Slack contacts):
[CLIENT] x Tierra[CLIENT] Finished Ad Creatives
