****Part 5 of the free eBook: [The Complete Guide to Growing Your Flexible Workspace Business](https://tour.essensys.tech/lead-to-cash-free-ebook)****

**In the first few installments of our lead to cash series, we've presented best practices for lead generation, sales management and the licensing and onboarding process. You may have closed the deal and added a new member to your community, but the work doesn’t stop there. Understanding your customers’ needs and managing and nurturing relationships with them after the sales process is almost just as important as them signing up.**
