Why be affected by the postal strike?
In the UK, as soon as next week, the Royal Mail will largely be on strike. The impact is that mail will be delayed. This will of course affect thousands of retail businesses.The rest of us though should be unscathed.
Why? We have great solutions such as Echosign and Right Signature which facilitate simple, paperless and legal document signing. With Echosign for example you can either upload your agreement; create it from within Box.net or Google Apps and then provide the email addresses of those who need to sign in which order and that's it. The document is sent. The recipient adds their details, clicks Sign and both parties have the final PDF in their Inbox for filing (in their document management tool such as Box.net of course). The time taken is as long as it takes to open an email and enter your details.
As well as meaning no impact from the strike, benefits include:
- No paper which is great for both the environment and your office stationary costs
- No postage which again is great for costs
- Quicker completion which means more deals in less time. Great for efficiency
Altogether, the obvious solution.
So why be affected by the postal strike?
