How to send a welcome message to new users?
Apart from automating a "welcome" script, you might also consider informing your users when new functionality is rolled out, or simply remind them about some features exist. There's a built-in "wizard" as part of the O365 Admin portal that lets you do that: https://portal.office.com/adminportal/home#/iwwizard

This link is sending me to a page where I should select from the already existing users and send them a pre-defined templates which cannot be modified or added to.
Can you send the correct link?
Thanks

Tx for your prompt reply. This is really a great feature, just discovered it now.
Do you know if MS will provide more of these 'Ready to send messages' ?
Today I notice a RtSM for Teams, any chance we can expect RtSMs for Stream, Planner, Sway, and other future apps?- VasilMichevJul 09, 2017MVP
That's something Anne can answer, probably on Monday though :)

Hi all,
thanks for your feedback. We're indeed currently working on how to improve the "to user email capabilities" that we have in the admin center and to make this feature more discoverable to admins as well. If you have feedback in general on how you would like to see this fucntionality improve and evolve, please let us know.
Thanks,
Anne
- Jeremy DahlJul 08, 2017Brass ContributorThat's a great one, @Vasil... new to me as well!

It has been around for a while now, but since it's only exposed in one of the home page "boxes" it gets overlooked I guess. Same for all the setup wizards they have added in the past few months.
Anne Michels I guess you can take some feedback on this? :) Also, do you guys have any plans to provide automation for these email, as people suggested above?

Hi, i've trying to look for this wizard in my Admin Center and browsing through my cards. It seems that its no longer available. Is there an article where I can refer to on how to setup my welcome email for the new staff?
