At EchoSign we like to think of ourselves as a Web 2.0 leader. But what is Web 2.0? Is it all about social, tweets, and Facebook? (Yes, we do love Facebook, one of our 9,000+ customers). Or is about something a bit broader, what we like to think, web applications that leverage the ubiquity of the internet?
Well, luckily The New York Times agrees with our broader view and
highlighted EchoSign as one of the three killer apps for using Web 2.0 to Solve Problems. Subtitled, "Surprise! Web 2.0 does more than social networking", the piece has a great interview with one of our customers:
"I spoke with an EchoSign customer, Angela O'Grady, the COO of Preferred Offices, a “hotel for businesses” in the Washington D.C. area that rents offices, meeting rooms, and other business location services. “We started with EchoSign after a client sent our contract back to us with the service,” said O'Grady.
In two years, O'Grady said they've used EchoSign for 441 documents, plus another 100 or so their customers printed, signed on paper, and returned. Clients don't have to pay anything to receive a document, just like YouSendIt doesn't charge the recipients of files.
“We're selling the latest and greatest technology and bandwidth,” said O'Grady, “and this is another nuance of how we provide state of the art service for our clients.” Being high-tech, and using EchoSign's management tools, they now know their average document signing time is 114 minutes. That certainly beats the days it used to take to get contract paperwork modified and signed."
Going from days to close a customer -- down to 114 minutes. We can do the same for you.
