What do you like best?

The fact that I get updates and it’s easy to navigate the site. At first I was a little nervous because it appeared that it would be hard to navigate and sent stuff out. Once I did a few of them, it was WAYY easier to use. I love all the features and being able to keep track of them in a creative way. My favorite part is probably seeing everything right when I log in (documents signed, who has signed, etc). Compared to having to click different links to get into the documents you sent. Other sites only let you see who has signed AFTER you click on the document you want to view. airSlate SignNow allows me to see everything in one shot.

Add initials mnda

all right i want to do a little tutorial on doing multiple initials on a perch and sale agreement so here we have our contract and first of all we're going to need signatures not initials on the first page so we'll do that looks like i have the second seller pulled up click on the wheel for the date stamp and then our first one here put that there date stamp or you can right click for that now all of the rest of them need initials and there's nothing there so here we have initial pages so click on that and this will show up by default this one is bottom of document and then align center and we'll see why that'll make sense signers we want both the sellers and those will drop down whatever you have there for the sellers and this is the person sale agreement and then we have options so we don't need that first page initial just pages 2 through 10 and continue medium is fine for all the initials and there we go on all of the pages it has the initials and all you need to do is move them into their place add the date stamp move this into the place and add or you can right click add the date stamp and then so on all the way through the person sale hope that helps just another tip to help you be more efficient and awesome out there
