Make Work Flow Faster with E-Signatures - Part 2

Written by Rachel Garvey | 4/27/12 2:05 PM

We want to touch on the second half of the TechLeaders 2012 article we posted about on Tuesday, Making Work Flow with E-Signatures: Benefits and Challenges.

Can you believe that it can take days or even weeks to complete a paper-based sales process?! We certainly have seen it over and over again. The table below that the article listed out is something we see a lot in companies and we strive to destroy this long, terrible process by introducing digital signatures into their sales processes.

  Step Time
1 Agent obtains set of forms to complete. 15 min
2 Agent partially completes forms. 30 min
3 Agent sends forms to client to finish and sign. 15 min to 48 hours
4 Client reviews and sends forms back to agent. 2 to 10 days
5 Agent reviews and then submits order for approval. 30 min to 2 days
6 Manager rejects (go back to step 1) or submits to   Operations. 30 min to 2 days
7 Operations rejects (go back to step 2) or approves order. 30 min to 2 days
8 Order is filled (e.g. account opened, product shipped,   etc.). 30 min to 2 days

TOTAL: Days or weeks!

We see companies sales cycle go from days to minutes. With SIGNiX, the agent uploads the forms to MyDoX online, inserts signature lines for the client and cc's anyone who needs to see the signed document, and sends to the client. The client signs online and everyone is notified by an email that the document is finished. Pretty easy, right?!
