Money, Money, Money, Mon-ney…MonEY!

The days are longer, the nights are warmer, and spring has finally sprung! Our team is pleased to end the winter season with some exciting features and upgrades to your AdvicePay experience.

If you’ve decided to enhance your business by adding the fee-for-service model to your financial advisory firm, congratulations! You are staying up-to-date with the latest industry trends and are taking the initiative to explore new frontiers, which will allow you to serve clients you can’t today under your current fee structure.

Many financial advisors have successfully adopted using digital signature functionality with their clients, others have never even considered it, and some have simply tried it and given up. Using digital signature has become a huge time-saving piece of technology for many financial advisors and a great convenience for their clients. Yet, it can be a challenge and intimidating to adopt the technology into your firm.

Erika here again, your AdvicePay Happiness Hero. Today, I am here to talk to you about our eSignature integration. 

March has been a busy month at the (new) AdvicePay office! Our team knocked out some pretty serious upgrades and fixes. Check out our release notes below to read up on how you now have additional client logins, bulk invoice downloads, and mobile-optimized payment flows for clients.  

Many advisors have already adopted electronic document signature tools for their practice to some degree, and this has been a huge win for accuracy and convenience when it comes to processing agreements. Chasing paper agreements (and paper checks) can become a huge hassle for you and for your clients.

The truth is, there are good reasons why some haven't been able to make the switch to electronic signature yet (including system interoperability issues and more), but I'd like to tell you why -- and how -- you can adopt electronic signatures starting today, if you use AdvicePay.

Back in November, we rolled out our eSignature integration, and we continue to expand our eSignature functionality. But before we take a look at all of the feature details, let's talk about why eSignature could be the best $15 you spend all month when it comes to being more efficient and providing a great client experience.
