Collier.Simon uses Dropbox Sign to move creative forward
Collier.Simon is a creative agency that delivers marketing and advertising solutions with one singular focus – driving results for their clients.
Creating more time for the work that matters
In today’s fast-paced marketing landscape, finding ways to streamline processes is critical to unlocking more time and resources for what matters most – making great work. This is magnified in talent acquisition and onboarding, as well as client SOWs, contracts and agreements.
With remote work continuing to be a reality, agencies have an expanded pool of talent to hire from. But they also face even more competition. So creating a fast, efficient way to identify, hire and onboard new people becomes paramount.
The same challenge applies to contracting new clients and new projects – agencies can’t let administrative tasks and paperwork slow them down.
Collier.Simon, like many growing agencies, has seen an increase in the variety of documents that need to be sent, signed and stored, and the number of people involved in the process. As such, they needed a solution that allowed their process to keep the fast-paced momentum that their clients expect, even with more players and complexities involved. It was critical for them to find an easy-to-use eSignature tool that also provided a simple way to keep a growing number of documents organised and orderly.
‘The amount of time Dropbox Sign and Dropbox has saved our company is incredible. We’re able to free up hundreds of hours spent on paperwork and file management, allowing us to get creative done faster.’
Streamlining signatures for speed and efficiency
As long-time Dropbox users, the team at Collier.Simon was naturally drawn to an eSignature solution that allowed them to maintain their current workflow of using Dropbox to share and collaborate on files and documents.
They explored other solutions but found Dropbox Sign to be the easiest to use, which drove deeper adoption across the agency. Its seamless integration with Dropbox was also a huge factor in saving time and ensuring organisation of critical documents. Matt Seigel, President, says:
‘Now that we’re running everything on Dropbox and Dropbox Sign, we spend a lot less time on administrative tasks and more time driving results for our clients.’
Faster hires and more efficient employee onboarding
By using Dropbox Sign and Dropbox, Collier.Simon was able to speed up their time to signature significantly for offer letters and onboarding paperwork. In addition, the improved flow and organisation has made it easier to add more people to the hiring process while increasing the efficiency.
Time savings on collaboration means rapid speed to impact for clients
By using Dropbox and Dropbox Sign to manage and deliver all their files, Collier.Simon is able to kick off and deliver creative up to 20% faster, which gets the work into market more quickly, delivering a business impact faster for their clients. Rachael Erdmann, Managing Director says:
‘Using Dropbox and Dropbox Sign allows us to manage our files and our documents in one place, and that keeps us more organised and more efficient in our everyday processes.’
Getting SOWs signed faster and projects initiated sooner
At the pace of today’s market, deadlines don’t move even if there are delays in paperwork. Collier.Simon has been able to get client SOWs and MSAs signed faster, while projects are kicked off much sooner. All in all, paperwork logjam has become a thing of the past.
Collaboration at scale, without sacrifice
With a streamlined process in place, Collier.Simon can scale their teams and document workflows with the confidence that they can move faster without sacrificing quality or organisation. They are currently ramping up use of Dropbox Paper to collaborate more closely on document generation, and Dropbox Replay for video collaboration, affording them the same efficiencies they enjoy across their other Dropbox workflows.
