The Cost of Slow Contracts

Every day a contract sits unsigned is a day of delayed revenue. Here's how to accelerate your signing process.

Tip 1: Use Templates

Stop creating contracts from scratch. Build a library of templates for common agreement types.

Tip 2: Enable Self-Service Signing

Don't make signers create accounts or download apps. One-click signing dramatically improves completion rates.

Tip 3: Set Up Automated Reminders

Gentle nudges work. Automated reminders at 24, 48, and 72 hours can cut signing time in half.

Tip 4: Mobile-Optimize Everything

Most people check email on their phones. Make sure your contracts are easy to review and sign on mobile.

Tip 5: Track and Analyze

What gets measured gets improved. Track your signing times and identify bottlenecks.
