Creating, Sending, and Managing Sales Documents

SignNow simplifies the creation, distribution, and management of sales documents. You can start with a template or upload your own files, then use the intuitive editor to add signature fields, text boxes, and checklists. The platform supports sending documents to multiple recipients, customizing messages, and adding carbon copy (CC) recipients for transparency. Sales teams can issue reminders, resend invites, and forward documents as needed, ensuring no deal slips through the cracks. The ability to quickly locate and reuse previously sent documents further accelerates the sales cycle. For more advanced needs, SignNow supports bulk sending and automated workflows, allowing you to handle high volumes of contracts with minimal effort.

Tracking Document Status and Audit Trails

Visibility is crucial in sales. SignNow provides real-time tracking of every document, so you always know where each contract stands. Receive instant notifications when a document is viewed, signed, or completed, and access a comprehensive audit trail that logs every action — from opening to signing, including date and time stamps. Audit trails are essential for compliance and dispute resolution, giving you confidence that every transaction is fully documented. You can download completed documents with their audit histories for your records or share them with stakeholders as needed.

Mobile and Offline Signing Capabilities

Sales don’t always happen at a desk. With SignNow’s mobile apps for iOS and Android, your team can prepare, send, and sign documents from anywhere — even when offline. This flexibility is a game-changer for field sales reps, event staff, or anyone who needs to close deals on the go. If you’re meeting a prospect at a conference or client site, simply open the SignNow app, load your template, and collect an in-person signature. All changes are saved locally and automatically synced to your CRM when you’re back online. Offline signing ensures you never miss an opportunity, no matter where business takes you.

Customizing Workflows and Approvals for Sales Processes

Every sales organization has unique processes and approval chains. SignNow allows you to customize workflows to match your business needs. Set up multi-level approvals, define recipient roles, and automate reminders to keep deals moving forward. You can also predefine message content and CC recipients to streamline communication. Advanced features like data binding let you pre-fill templates with CRM data and update records automatically when documents are signed. This reduces manual entry, minimizes errors, and ensures your CRM always reflects the latest deal status.

Security, Compliance, and Legal Considerations

Security and compliance are at the core of SignNow’s e-signature solution. Every document signed with SignNow is legally binding and meets industry standards for electronic signatures. The platform provides robust security features, including password protection, document expiration, and secure audit trails. SignNow complies with major regulations such as ESIGN, UETA, and GDPR, ensuring your contracts are enforceable and your data is protected. For organizations with strict compliance needs, SignNow offers advanced controls and detailed reporting to support audits and regulatory requirements.
