Tool: Get legal signatures at a distance with EchoSign

By Becky McCray

Tim Norton, Decisive Flow blog, has done such a great job describing this tool, echosign – sign agreements accross the world – easy, that I don’t think I could improve on it:

This morning I arrived to find an email from someone interested in involving us in a project in New York, which is brilliant, as while I’ve done a little business their before in a previous life, we haven’t with Decisive Flow, so its our first, great.

They’ve got a community centric business which they’ve been growing organically for a little while, with a very focused, passionate and active community base, but while they want to work with us on the web marketing, they also want to make sure we don’t give their game away, so wanted us to sign a non disclosure agreement (NDA).

Read the rest of the story (it’s short), at sign agreements accross the world – easy.

And check out echosign, too.

Tools like this make it possible for small town businesses to compete globally. Tim just showed you a great example. That’s why we bring you these tool reviews, to help you compete in today’s business world.
