## Why this matters

Every new engagement used to mean another login, another password, another place to lose track
of where you left things. Ciclo replaces all of that with a single **partner dashboard** —
every client you manage in one place, with each workspace linked to yours from the moment it's
created. For a practice managing five, ten, or twenty clients, that's the difference between
admin overhead and billable hours.

## Create the client workspace

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Organizations page">
    Click your name in the bottom-left corner of the screen and choose **Manage
    Organizations** (it appears once you manage more than one organisation). The
    **Organizations** page lists every client account connected to your partner account.
    Select **Create Customer Organization** to start a new one.

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create the client organisation">
    Enter the **client organisation name** — this is what they'll see when they log in — then
    choose a **subscription plan** (monthly or annual) and, optionally, a **billing email**
    for invoice notifications. The new organisation starts a **14-day trial** immediately,
    with full platform access, five user licences, and your partner discount applied —
    payment details can be added any time before the trial ends.

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm it's linked">
    The new organisation appears immediately in your list, connected to your partner account.
    The list shows each client's subscription status, user count, engagement level, and last
    activity — so you can see at a glance which clients need attention.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Switch into the client workspace">
    Open the organisation from its row to switch into the client's workspace, with full
    access to manage it on their behalf — ready for a
    [strategy import](/consultants/document-to-dashboard) straight away.

    </Frame>
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Switch between client accounts at any time from your partner dashboard — no re-logins, no
  password managers, no tab gymnastics. One partner account manages every client workspace.
</Note>

## The value you're delivering

* **Ready before the kick-off** — a new client workspace stands up in under a minute.
* **Linked from day one** — full access to manage the account on the client's behalf,
  immediately.
* **Less admin, more billable time** — one account, every client, instant switching.
