When using HiThrive with Slack, HiThrive incorporates a customizable welcome message that is sent to all of your users upon your go-live.

The message serves a dual purpose in that it (1) introduces your team members to the platform and announces HiThrive's availability and (2) it automatically populates the HiThrive application in the left side-bar "Apps" section for your team members.

In the event that you decide not to use the welcome message, HiThrive's functionality will still be available to your team members; however, the HiThrive application will not be visible until each team member manually adds it. 

The welcome message is sent as a direct message to each team member and looks like the below.
