  2. Open Settings. Check the company name, brand colour and website under Branding. Upload a logo if you have one, then choose Save changes.
  3. Check Plan and billing to see your storage, team seats and next billing date.
  4. Open Team to invite colleagues. Then open Clients to create a client before adding that client’s brands.

02Try a safe example

The Sample client tool in Settings can create a fictional client, brand, review project and content calendar. Use a separate email address you control for its client login. A sample client is part of your workspace and uses its storage; remove it when you no longer need it.

Your workspace address is reserved during sign-up for three hours while payment is outstanding. An expired reservation can be taken by someone else. A completed workspace keeps its assigned address.

You’re in the right place when…

Your team sees your company name and branding, and you are ready to add clients.

Last checked . Your role and plan determine which actions you see.
