## Step 1: Defining your content needs

This first step gives Obvlo the core inputs needed to begin content creation quickly.

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Brand and tone inputs">Share your brand guidelines, tone of voice, logos, colours, and key editorial rules.</Card>
  <Card title="Launch destinations">Confirm which destinations are in scope for launch.</Card>
  <Card title="Optional content preferences">Share any preferred themes or content priorities if you want to guide the initial setup.</Card>
  <Card title="Implementation path">How you plan to deliver content to guests: through your website, a hosted experience, or a direct integration. This helps Obvlo set up content to match your delivery approach from the start.</Card>
</CardGroup>

## Step 2: Creating your content

This is where Obvlo sets up your destinations and generates your content set.

* Apply available brand and tone inputs
* Generate guides, listings, and related content
* Deliver content ready for your review and updates

***

## Step 3: Reviewing your content

Your team can review and personalise content in the **Portal** before launch.

* Review guides, listings, pages, and promos
* Edit copy, imagery, and categorisation where needed
* Approve launch-ready content when needed
* Request updates from Obvlo where required

<Tip>For detailed guidance on reviewing and managing content in the Portal, use the [Portal guide](/onboarding-guides/portal-onboarding-guide).</Tip>

## Step 4: Using your content

This is where you activate the implementation path already agreed.

* **SEO and discoverability:** [Microsite](/onboarding-guides/microsite-onboarding-guide) — search-friendly HTML pages to improve destination discoverability
* **Guest experience:** [Web App (Digital Concierge)](/onboarding-guides/hosted-onboarding-guide) — a full guest-facing experience hosted by Obvlo
* **Digital channel enhancement:** [Embeddable Widget (Trip Planner)](/onboarding-guides/widget-onboarding-guide) — embed Obvlo content inside your existing website
* **Custom integrations:** [API](/onboarding-guides/api-onboarding-guide) — onboard API delivery, then move into developer implementation pages

## Step 5: Going live

<Steps>
  <Step title="Confirm content readiness">Make sure launch content has been reviewed, approved, and signed off.</Step>
  <Step title="Confirm implementation readiness">Check that your agreed delivery path is configured and connected to the right destinations.</Step>
  <Step title="Test the live experience">Validate branding, content display, links, language behaviour, and responsiveness.</Step>
  <Step title="Confirm ownership and monitoring">Make sure your team knows what is live, where performance is monitored, and who owns escalation.</Step>
</Steps>

After launch, monitor engagement and feedback, refresh content where needed, and adjust rollout priorities over time.

<Note>Before you start, confirm who on your team owns approvals and day-to-day updates. That person is your point of contact with Obvlo throughout onboarding.</Note>
