Zapier has been a leading tool to stitch a gazillion other tools together. I've found this gem with a lifetime deal & it works for me really well!
* If you go directly on their site, there’s a monthly fee
Let's face it. Contracts are no fun to read or send (unless you're a lawyer). eSignature make it easy & it's a $0.49 flat fee for each document.
I love lifetime deal apps. It's affordable & you support another small business! Plus, they are more likely to work with you to deliver exactly what you need!
