01 · The playbook

How to do it, step by step.

  1. 01

    Pick a template

    Covey ships with considered templates. Pick one that fits your organization's voice.

  2. 02

    Configure public vs. member-only pages

    Mark each page public or member-only.

  3. 03

    Write your member-only pages

    Member news, resource links, how-to guides: put them on member-only pages, which send visitors who are not signed in to the member login. They keep casual visitors out; keep anything confidential off the website.

  4. 04

    Point your domain

    One DNS change. SSL automatic. No separate hosting bill.

  5. 05

    Invite members to log in

    Members receive a welcome email with their login. They self-serve from there.

02 · What it gets you

The payoff.

  • One platform replaces a public website and a separate members-only portal
  • Public pages can rank on Google; member-only pages send visitors to the member login
  • New members onboard themselves via the public site and the welcome sequence
