Close Deals Faster: The Power of Google eSignature and FlowGuide


In the sales world, the last thing you want is for a deal to stall at the 5-yard line because of "paperwork friction." If your buyer has to leave their workflow, download a PDF, and upload it to a separate portal just to sign, you are adding risk to the deal.


By leveraging Google eSignature directly within Google Docs and housing it all in a FlowGuide Deal Room, you create a seamless, one-click experience for your buyer.


Why Google eSignature is a Game Changer


Google has integrated eSignature natively into Workspace. This isn't just a "plugin"—it is a built-in tool that allows you to request signatures, track progress, and finalize contracts without ever leaving your document.


  • Speed: You can turn a drafted proposal into a signature request in seconds by going to Tools > eSignature.

  • Simplicity: Buyers sign directly in a secure Google interface. No account creation or complex software is required on their end.

  • Audit Ready: Once signed, a finalized PDF with a digital audit trail is automatically generated and saved to your Drive.


Leveraging Working Templates


Efficiency at scale requires templates. You shouldn't be "dragging and dropping" signature fields every time you send a contract.


  1. Create your Master Doc: Set up your standard MSA or SOW in Google Docs.


  2. Add Signer Fields: Use the eSignature sidebar to place "Signature," "Date," and "Initials" tags.


  3. Save as Template: Use this doc as your "base." When a new deal comes in, simply make a copy, customize the terms, and the signature fields are already in place.


The FlowGuide Advantage: Keep it Centralized


The biggest mistake in modern sales is sending a "fragmented" buyer experience. When you use FlowGuide to centralize your proposal, ROI calculator, and Google eSignature doc, the buyer has a single source of truth.


They don't have to hunt through their inbox for "that one email with the link." They go to their FlowGuide, review the impact, and click "Sign." It keeps the momentum high and the "cost of doing nothing" front and center until the very end.
