Co-founder Samir Smajic from GetAccept here. We want to help salespeople close more deals faster by helping them take control of their sales document workflow. Our team at GetAccept worked with sales for several years and experienced a LOT of frustration -- deals would just slip away from us even when we thought we we’re in control.
We realized we were not alone and have focused on the process how to help you to get the deals signed.
Please try the product out and let us know how we can improve it. We do require an email signup (no other info), then you get access to the whole thing.
I found the christian iconography in the introductory video both overly abstract and rather distracting. Part of the issue is that orderly rows of crosses are typical of US Military cemeteries but not typical elsewhere...and that further shifts the context. Death Valley, the La Brea tarpits, etc. might be better metaphors anyway. People [in the US] tend to be put off by reminders of their own mortality. Because the video starts with "me" being tired of banging my head, the reminder is stronger.
Elsewhere, the claim of experience in sales is weakened by the absence of specific named individuals with sales experience in the "who we are" portion of the site.
Finally, my pet peeve: Not providing anything in exchange for giving a company push access to my inbox. I have to be desperate before I'm providing anything other than a bitbucket to a landing page that hasn't provided me with direct evidence of value [e.g. something to play with].
As a metric, email signups seem pretty weak compared to actual engagement with the product...people who bother to land on your page are pure gold. Each one of them who goes away without using your product is a deal that winds up in the valley of death. Make the call to action, "Please try our product" not "Please give us a chance to spam your inbox."
Overall, I think there's a market particularly for small business.
Hi brudgers, thanks for taking your time to give us some feedback!
We haven't really thought of the christian iconography like that and you are the first one mentioning it. I can really see your take of it and it would have been better to use a non religious symbol, I agree.
I don´t agree that you get "nothing" when signing up. You get a free account that you can use totally free to send, track and sign documents (not only during trial but also afterwards). But maybe that isn't that clear. Maybe the signup rate would increase if you just sign up with a username instead of e-mail. I will absolutely take your feedback in consideration future changes.
I have many many email addresses that recieve push messages from services I tried. Trying something out is often the waste of time that keeps on wasting because usually what I try out isn't right for me and I get emails to manage into spam for years.
To put it another way, the problem I am trying to solve has never been that I don't get enough email from you. When the coin is my email, it's an indication that our interests are misaligned.
Regarding the video, one negative metaphor is enough to set the stage...either head banging or the death valley of deals. Is the protagonist me or my deals?
