# Step 1. Setup an Account

* If you received an invitation letter, click on the invite link provided and follow the steps to input your email address and create a secure password. Once completed, you will automatically be added to the team of the inviting user.
* If you already have credentials – proceed to the [Sign in page](https://hdm.road.ly/signin).
* If you prefer to create a new account, simply proceed to the [Sign up page](https://hdm.road.ly/signup). This will create a new team (organization) for you and grant you the ability to invite other users.
