Workflow Challenge “My challenge is all about speed and efficiency”, says Dean Holmes. “For me, time is money so I need to make the most of it.” As a leading online strategist Dean Holmes is always looking for technologies that can help both his business and his clients. Dean was using eFax to get non-disclosure agreements and customer agreements signed and it wasn’t efficient enough. “I still had to go through a manual process and faxes are cumbersome and inefficient.” In addition, even with eFax it took 2-3 days to get contracts signed so Dean searched for a better way. EchoSign Solution Dean Holmes has been using EchoSign for about two years. He landed a client in Australia, used EchoSign to send the contract, and is now turning his client onto EchoSign. Results Dean has found that with EchoSign his contracts are returned within hours. “In addition to more efficiency, the ‘coolness’ factor of signing something online is key for me. It makes me look good to my clients and shows that I walk the walk.”
