Patrick, My only tubeless rims are Velocity Cliffhangers, and I've only tried this with Rene Herse and Schwalbe tubeless compatible tires, so I don't have a lot of experience, but...
I use 2 Crank Brothers Speedier Levers which clip to the rim allowing you to let go and inspect if the bead is still down in the well where I want it, and that your tube isn't sneaking it's way out back under the bead you're working on. After I get the first bead on, I insert the tube and try to fill it up enough to make it behave, but not so much it interferes with keeping the beads down in the well. Once the second bead is on, I check again that the tube isn't caught under either bead, them use a floor pump to seat the beads on the rim. Which rims, tubes and tires are you using? Best of luck!
