For small agencies
For agencies: the statement of work signed, and the deposit paid.
A statement of work signed and its deposit paid in one step, the project's files shared with the client in a room of their own, and your name on every email and page.
Everything on this page comes with Business. Start free, with three documents a month and no card.
What small agencies do on ShareSign
01
The deposit on the SOW
Ask for the deposit on the statement of work. The client's card is held as they sign and taken when you countersign, into your own Stripe account.
How it works02
Several files, one signature
The statement of work and the master services agreement go out together, are signed together, and are certified as one.
How it works03
A room for the client
Deliverables shared with the client in a data room: numbered, with a record of what they opened, and questions answered in one place.
How it works04
Your brand, not ours
Your logo, colour, and sender name on every email and signing page, on Business.
How it works05
Retainers that renew on time
A signed retainer agreement is read for its renewal and notice dates, and you are reminded before each one.
How it works
A design studio in Denver, Colorado
One firm's week
Fieldnote Studio, LLC builds websites for restaurants and hotels, most between $18,000 and $40,000, with half due on signing. Each statement of work goes out with the deposit on it; the client signs and pays in the same minute, and the project starts that week instead of after an invoice.
Designs and final files go into the client's room, numbered, and the studio can see that the client opened the homepage mockups twice before the review call.
