Turn the people curious enough to join before you've even opened into members who feel like they were there from day one.

## Set it up

Anything the menu marks **Off** shows **Switched off** when you open it: press **Switch on and set it up** (on a phone, **+ Add more** lists them). Changes wait for [**Save**](https://help.useflub.com/your-club/saving-changes.md) in the bar at the bottom of the page, or at the top right of an offer's full-screen editor on a phone.

1. **A first-week welcome drink.** In **Your club**, under [**What members get**](https://app.useflub.com/manage/go/what-members-get), press [**Welcome perk**](https://help.useflub.com/your-club/welcome-perk.md). Choose **Free item**, and write "a house drink" as the item.
2. On a computer, under **How long they have**, choose **Custom…** and 7, so it's ready across your whole opening week. Press **Save**.
3. **Soft-launch table access.** Press [**Club perks**](https://help.useflub.com/your-club/club-perks.md) in the menu, then **Add a perk**. Write a **Heading** such as "First access to our soft-opening tables". Under **Call to action**, choose **Phone** or **Link**, write a **Button label**, then press **Done**.
4. **The opening menu preview.** Press **Add a perk** again, with a **Heading** such as "See the opening menu before we launch". Under **Call to action**, choose **Link** to the menu, then press **Done**.
5. **Founding-event invites.** Press **Add a perk** once more, with a **Heading** such as "Priority invites to our launch nights and tastings". Under **Call to action**, choose **Calendar**, then press **Done**, then **Save**.

## What members get

A free house drink in their first week, first access to soft-opening tables, an early look at the menu, and priority invites to launch nights and tastings.

## What your staff need to know

Scan a new member's pass in their first week and the welcome drink shows ready to give, once, then it's gone. The other three are Club perks, listed under **Club perks** when you scan: nothing to redeem, just honour the early access and invites.

## How you'll know it's working

The **Welcome perk** card on **What members get** shows how many new members have claimed it since you opened.
