How This Works
Making your contract template work for you
PREP | CUSTOMIZE | PROTECT
PREP
A few things before you begin
- Create your account at the TBL store to ensure access to your order history and original template(s).
- To download your files, click the link you received in the Order Confirmation email.
- Save your files somewhere safe and easy to find.
- Each purchase includes two copies of the template, one in Word and one in Google Docs.
CUSTOMIZE
Make it your own
- Following our key, start to fill in the necessary information (keeping an eye out for additional instructions along the way).
- Make sure you replace and remove all brackets, instructions, and highlights — an easy way to do this is by using the “replace all” shortcut to ensure all unnecessary info is removed.
- Do this by holding down Control and F (on PC) or COMMAND+F (on Mac) and pasting the text you’re searching for into the field (for example, “[Company Name]”).
- Replace the “found” text with the correct word or phrase, e.g., “The Boutique Lawyer.”
- Select “replace all.”
- Do this until there are no more remaining brackets or asterisks.
- Proofread, proofread, proofread — make sure you haven’t accidentally missed anything or made silly spelling errors (we’re all human).
- Save your final version as both a document and a PDF. Use a naming and file convention you know you won’t forget or lose.
PUBLISH & PROTECT
Put your contract to work
- Import your contract into your preferred program or CRM. Programs like DocuSign and HelloSign allow you to send contracts directly to clients via email and collect e-signatures. Whereas most CRMs, like Dubsado or Honeybook, collect e-signatures, send invoices, and organize other important documents. (PS: Do what works for you — all these options are great.)
- If you need to send your contract out for manual signature, simply print and mail (but double-check no changes have been made).
- If you send your contract as an email attachment, send a PDF version so no changes can be made without your knowledge or approval.
