In honor of our new eBook, 32 Sales Tools for 2013, we'd like to draw some attention to our favorite sales tools. Cue the spotlight for DocuSign, the e-signatures application that completely changes the sales game for companies that require contracts and signatures to close business.

You know when you're on the road at a trade show or out meeting a client and a deal you've been waiting on is ready to fax a signed sales contract back to the office? You then have to get on the phone with someone in the office so they can intercept it, somehow make sure everything is right, and get it all squared away with your CRM before the deal actually counts as won. DocuSign eliminates all that hassle; it's the modern day solution to the signature collection problem that the ease of email has created. Before DocuSign, we all had to put up with faxing or scanning and sending anything that needed to be signed. Now, we can upload and store documents in the cloud, securely, and send signatures with only a browser.
DocuSign for Salesforce, the sales e-signature solution, has been found to increase close rates by 30%. All because they make contract management safe and simple. According to DocuSign's website, 97% of all DocuSign contracts are returned within 48 hours. That's pretty flooring.
We encourage you to go check out DocuSign if you haven't already.
