Thoughts on Business, Software, Startups and Tech.
We all remember our first days at various companies. Regardless of what the new workplace is like and how confident you are, those first few days (sometimes weeks) will be stressful and you feel satisfied just making it through the day.
If you are in the property industry and looking for something to increase you or your team's productivity and give you a significant competitive advantage; getting your rental agreements signed online may be exactly what you need.
When people talk about supporting local startups they are generally talking about investment, education and community, but what about as a customer or user?
Electronic signatures have seen an incredible rise in interest in recent years and an ever-growing number of businesses are now using them as a tool to cut down on paper usage and streamline a multitude of different work processes.
If you’re still using hard copies or sending PDF’s via email, you could be costing your business money. In the time it takes a recipient to print a form, manually fill it out, and send it back, you’ve already lost a good 30-45 minutes (per signer), and that’s if they completed it immediately! More often than not, each signer takes days or weeks to complete a document.
The reality is that processes often get stuck when people don’t respond quickly enough. By eliminating the scenario above, your business can speed up its processes.
This question comes up a lot and the the answer is always, a lot more than you think. The truth is, you can use e-signatures to sign anything from debit orders to leases agreements and from Section 14 Retirement Annuity fee renewal forms to employee contracts.
Over the last couple of years we’ve been blessed to have a great group of people who we’ve been lucky enough to call our customers. We’ve seen how they’ve been spreading the word and using esignatures for some time now.
But before they joined the Quicklysign family they started out like so many others. By asking questions.
We decided to give a breakdown of the most commonly asked questions about electronic signatures and hopefully put a few myths to bed.
Over the last couple of days, the weather in Cape Town has been miserable. It was raining and the wind was howling.
If you had just landed at Cape Town International airport and were on your way to the city, your first impression would be more of Mordor from Lord of the Rings than one of a city voted one of the most beautiful in the world.
This got me thinking about first impressions and how important they can be for all aspects of life and especially in business.
Yes, paper contracts are familiar, and we’ve used them for many years, but now that e-signatures has become accessible to everyone, you should rid yourself of those massive stacks of paper and the old office filing cabinet..
We know that once a document has been signed and downloaded there are often is some manual capturing of data.
Be it adding client information from a debit order or adding clients details to your CRM system. Either way manually typing in information can be a huge hassle.
This week we launched a feature that will make is very easy to choose how your document gets signed.
We have added a setting to each document and template, that allows you to choose the method of signing you would like the signer to use.
The ability to create a link to send to anybody to sign a document is a brilliant feature that is now available to all users.
So how does it work?
If you have a document that needs to be signed by one person each time then this will make your job a lot easier.
So we have been saying it for some time now.
Your e-mail is a valid form of identity when signing contracts electronically.
We all know that gaining the competitive edge is vital in order for your business to keep it's doors open. Over the last year we at Quicklysign have been able to see first hand the difference electronic signatures can have on a business. Big or Small.
