How GSD Solutions saved time and improved efficiency with Dropbox Sign
GSD Solutions, a business development agency that specializes in digital adoption, uses Dropbox Sign to simplify it’s contract management process.
Enhancing contract efficiency
In 2019, Georgie-Ann Getton launched GSD Solutions, a visionary company aimed at boosting the efficiency and productivity of small to medium-sized enterprises by re-imagining workplace operations. Recognizing the distinct challenges faced by these enterprises, Georgie-Ann's company has become a go-to resource, providing tailored IT, operations, and AV solutions.
After stepping back from her Ed Tech Venture, Georgie-Ann took a sabbatical year to delve into the operational dynamics of various businesses, ranging from small businesses to large corporations. This experience uncovered a widespread need among medium-to small businesses for streamlined operations, particularly in an era dominated by digital demands. Spotting this opportunity, Georgie-Ann was inspired to create a suite of services specifically tailored to address these challenges.
Throughout her entrepreneurial journey, Georgie-Ann encountered significant hurdles with contract management—delays in contract signing impeded swift client onboarding and service delivery. Determined to refine this process, she envisioned a system that wouldn’t only expedite contract management but also automate essential workflows.
The traditional, paper-based contract signing process had been a major bottleneck previously. Sending contracts to clients for signatures often took hours, if not days, and tracking the status of each contract was a cumbersome task. This manual process not only consumed valuable time but also introduced the risk of human error and miscommunication. Georgie-Ann knew when she started GSD Solutions she had to have a more efficient and reliable contract management system.
Moreover, GSD Solutions aims to provide their clients with exceptional service and quick turnaround times. However, a manual contract signing process could’ve created a barrier to achieving these goals. With clients expecting fast and seamless interactions, Georgie-Ann sought a solution that’d enable her team to send contracts, collect signatures, and track progress in real-time, ensuring a smoother and more efficient client onboarding experience.
“We needed a way to streamline our contract signing process and save time so that we could focus on other aspects of our business.”
"Sign makes my entire workflow smoother because it’s connected to the tools that we use on a day-to-day basis like Hubspot and Google Drive. And we have automation set up. So once the client signs, it goes to our Google Drive. We get an email notification. We get a text message notification. And then we’re good."
A tool with integrations and templates
Georgie-Ann found the solution to her challenge in Dropbox Sign. Dropbox Sign’s user-friendly interface, seamless integrations, and robust security features made it the ideal tool to streamline GSD Solutions’ contract management processes and automate key workflows.
With Dropbox Sign, Georgie-Ann has been able to set up their three most used documents, client contracts, contractor contracts, and W9s, into templates. Now sending contracts to clients for signatures in a matter of minutes, significantly reducing the time spent on contract signing and onboarding new clients.
“Those three main contracts are templates within [Dropbox] Sign. It makes it so easy to lock in a deal. Knowing that we could say, Yeah, contract will be in your inbox in 24 hours versus like, Oh, give us three days”
The platform’s real-time tracking feature provides complete visibility into the status of each contract, eliminating the need for manual tracking and follow-ups. This streamlined process not only saves time but also enhances efficiency and productivity, allowing GSD Solutions to focus on delivering exceptional services to their clients.
Furthermore, Dropbox Sign’s integration with GSD Solutions’ existing business tools, such as Google Drive and HubSpot, further enhances the efficiency of their operations. By centralizing all contract-related information in one secure location, Georgie-Ann and her team can easily access and manage contracts, ensuring a seamless workflow, and eliminating the risk of misplacing or losing important documents.
Streamlined workflows and enhanced efficiency
By leveraging the power of Dropbox Sign, GSD Solutions was able to set up a streamlined contract management process, enabling them to provide fast and efficient services to their clients. The time saved through automation and streamlined workflows allowed Georgie-Ann and her team to focus on bringing new strategic ways to think about work to their clients.
The efficiency and fast turnaround times made possible by Dropbox Sign ultimately translated into enhanced client service and satisfaction. GSD Solutions can meet client expectations for quick and seamless interactions, fostering stronger relationships and building trust.
With the time saved through automation and streamlined workflows, Georgie-Ann and her team were able to shift their focus from administrative tasks to strategic initiatives that drive business growth and customer satisfaction. This strategic shift allowed GSD Solutions to explore new opportunities and strengthen their position in the market.
Empowering through innovation
Looking forward, Georgie-Ann plans to take GSD Solutions to even greater heights by establishing a comprehensive content center. This hub will be a go-to resource for like-minded entrepreneurs, guiding them in the re-imaginating of workflow efficiency and the integration of AI into their business operations.
