“If it takes three follow-ups to get one signature, you're not closing—you’re babysitting.”
That hits home, doesn’t it? We’ve all been there. You send the doc, hear crickets, follow up twice, and suddenly you’re questioning your whole pitch.
Here’s the truth: sales will always involve following up. But the deal doesn’t really close until the contract is signed. And if the signing process is slow, clunky, or manual, it’s a deal killer.
Fix the Last Mile of Your Deal
Most sales teams are great at pitching and nurturing. But when it comes to getting that final signature, things fall apart with the need for printing, scanning, back-and-forth emails. That’s where deals go to die.
eSignatures don’t close your deal for you, but they make the signing step so effortless that it doesn’t slow you down.
- No more “Hey, did you get a chance to sign the doc?”
- You’ll know instantly when your document is opened.
- You’ll automate reminders so you don’t have to send another “just following up” email.
It all starts with sending a signature request. Want to see how simple it is? Watch this quick video.
Why Signing Is the Hardest Part
Think about it: every sales deal is smooth until you hit the paperwork. That’s where momentum dies.
People delay, misplace files, or “forget” to print and scan.
eSignatures remove that pain. One click, sign from anywhere, any device. Your customer gets a frictionless experience. You get a deal closed faster!
The Real Deal
Chasing isn’t bad—if you’re not following up, you’re not closing. But there’s a difference between being strategic and looking desperate.
Here’s how top sellers sound when using eSignatures:
- “Here’s your signing link. It’ll expire Friday—let’s get this done.”
- “Looks like you’ve opened the doc twice. Want to talk through anything before we finalize?”
- “One click and we’re live. Let me know if anything’s unclear.”
It’s still you doing the work—but smarter, faster, and without the admin slowing you down.
