Where Contract Signing Most Often Gets Stuck in the Sales Process

The deal may already be agreed, but signing the contract often slows the entire process down unnecessarily. You have to wait for an in-person meeting, the client may be out of the office, the document is sent back and forth by email, or it needs to be printed and scanned. Each of these steps increases the time between reaching an agreement and obtaining the signature.

This is why electronic signatures make sense for sales departments and e-commerce. Whether it involves signing a business contract online, approving a price quote, signing a binding order, or approving documents in a CRM system, the goal is the same: to reduce the time between creating the document and getting it signed.

Administrative tasks are the biggest enemy of sales departments. They often find themselves having to deal with mountains of initialed and signed documents, and several copies at that! The time spent on these low-value-added activities is time not invested in the core business.

Remove the speed bump from your business cases. With e-signatures, contracts are signed within minutes of being created.

What Signing a Business Contract Looks Like on Paper and Online

In a paper-based process, the document is printed, sent or taken to a meeting, signed, then scanned and forwarded to the other parties. This is often how business contracts, orders, and price quotes are signed or approved.

With an online process, the procedure is simpler. You upload the document, send it for signature, and the client or business partner signs it online. This makes it possible to sign a contract online, sign a document from a mobile device, or complete the signing process remotely without printing or scanning. The result is faster document signing and a shorter sales cycle.

What Sales Representatives Gain from Electronic Signatures

Electronic signatures for sales and e-commerce primarily give sales representatives greater speed, visibility, and less administrative work.

  • They do not need to bring the contract to an in-person meeting.
  • They do not need to print it or wait for the client to sign it later at the office.
  • The document can be sent for online signature, while the sales representative can track who has already signed and where the process has stalled.

With business contracts, price quotes, and binding orders, it is important that the deal does not slow down unnecessarily at the final stage. Electronic signatures reduce the number of steps, speed up contract approvals, and help close the deal while the client is ready to make a decision.

Business Contract Approvals Without Unnecessary Emails

Business contracts often require more than just the client’s signature. Before signing, a price quote, order, or cooperation agreement may need to be approved internally. When these documents are sent back and forth by email between the sales representative, manager, and client, version confusion can arise and the entire process takes longer.

Electronic signatures and digital document approvals help keep business contracts within a single process. You can see where the document is, who has approved it, and whose signature is still pending.

Immediate In-Person Signing

A sales representative can have the contract or order signed directly during a meeting with the client. No printing, scanning, or app installation is required. In-person electronic signing helps close sales opportunities immediately while the client is ready to make a decision.
