How to eSign a document: e-signature lawfulness for small businesses in Australia

hello again it's Jolene with the hom Stitcher Decor YouTube channel if you're new here hi I'm Jolene I am from Calgary Albert Canada I teach all things small business I make modern Farmhouse home decor and I sell in local stores local boutiques on my Shopify store and I do uh some print on demand stuff as as well so on my YouTube channel I try to teach the small business stuff and then as side of crafty things for the people that were following along with me from the very beginning but in today's video I just want to get right to the point of what we're going to look at today and uh tell you my story of why I needed it so um I'm trying to Branch out my business and one of the things that I wanted to do was get an affiliate to start doing some of my marketing for me so I have a product um with Cricut designs is what it is I I own a whole bunch of cricket designs I own the Mandela SVG shop on um Etsy and I own mandelas SVG shop.com I just don't have the website up and running yet um that's another reason I needed an affiliate so I wanted a person that had a cricet machine that would be able to make my designs videotape them and then start plugging out the information I'm going to give her a coupon code of course that she can use and then um when she uh we can track the sales through the coupon code and then I'm going to pay her a percentage for the work yay good for her so she's from the Philippines and um you know that just going back and forth with some legal stuff I was like you know I think I actually want to have a non-disclosure agreement and a non-compete agreement just to cover both of us um so that she doesn't take the designs and start selling them as her own and that she knows that once she knows how to do this she cannot create um designs that are exact replicas of mine and then Market those as so I went down this little rabbit hole of where the heck am I going to get a non-disclosure agreement because I am a small business I do everything on a budget and I like budget friendly things so I typed on the internet non-disclosure agreement and up popped law Depot um and I was able to create a non-disclosure agreement within a matter of minutes and it was completely free free free like no hitting cost totally free so I created a free account and I'm in Canada so it was quite easy for me so once you go to law Depot you will be able to see that they have all kinds of countries that they operate in so they're in Australia Canada deand France India Ireland Mexico New Zealand Nigeria Singapore Spain United Kingdom and the United States so that is uh fantastic now I'm can from Canada so I'm going to continue to the site here and then once I've brought up um the information I just I didn't see a disclosure agreement right here on the front page so I just searched the site and I typed in NDA and up on the right hand corner uh came up the non-disclosure agreement and it is basically just um fill in the information and they will walk you through every single step that you need okay so in my case um I'm an employer employee I'm going to save and continue and it's going to be all confidential information I'm going to save and continue and my province is Alberta save and continue and then I am a company organization and then I can put in my business name and my mailing address and literally the form is just this put in the people's information put in the information that they ask you for and literally I saved it as a PDF I printed it off um I put it in a Google Drive and set it over her it got signed Bing Bang Boom we're done okay so when we come back to uh law Depot though I wanted to tell you guys that this is very helpful for small businesses for so many reasons so many reasons so it's not just a non-disclosure agreement that you can get here you can get your last will in Testament you can get bills of sale you can get employee contracts incorporation residential lease agreements separation agreements and then when you come up to the top here it is going to tell you um if you're estate planning all the things that you can get to help plan your escate now they the non-disclosure agreement was totally free not every form on here is going to be totally free but you can start with a free plan and then just pick what you need um and you know walk your way through the forms yourself because some of the stuff um when you're doing legal stuff for a small business it can get really freaking expensive uh so anything that you can do to save a little bit of money money that is legal in the country that you operate out of I mean fantastic right so um here we we're in the will in estate forms you can get your last will in Testament a gift deed end of life plan just in case instructions Personal Care profile um your Testament you've got uh Power attorney procreation or procuration Pro procuration um which I believe is just French for power of attorney um and we've got revocation of power of attorney healthare forms uh child medical everything that you can imagine and they do the same for if you're in business for Real Estate Financial business family or all and when we're saying all it's all of the products in here under one so I'm an affiliate now for law Depot you can become an affiliate for businesses when you have a valid business that is running and you offer content like I do on my YouTube channel so it's taken me a while to get to this stage where I'm comfortable applying for affiliate programs and I pretty much know that I will get approved for them uh because when I first started 5 years ago that was my dream and of course um you know I overstepped and obviously they said no because I look like an idiot um so I'm working on that and here's a great resource that you can use for your small business I will put a affiliate Link in the video description so if you ever pay for a form on here and you've signed up with my affiliate link if it's within their terms and conditions I will receive a small commission which is how I get paid now to make my Youtube videos please hit the Subscribe button and I will try to give you some more valuable information in the next video so make sure you watch another video on this channel to help me grow and to increase your chances of learning and therefore growing your business faster than I did and I will be here to cheer you on just pag me have a great day you guys
