Under the box on the left that says Create Template is a small link that says use an existing template. Click that.
Hover over the result (WordCamp [Cityname] organizer …) and click the arrow that appears on the right. Choose Use Template.
Enter the organizer’s name and email address. Scroll through the agreement and wherever you see [CITY_NAME] or other placeholders for name, city, event, etc. Replace them. Don’t forget to also add your name. Then, hit send.
When the organizer has viewed the agreement, and then again when they have signed it, HelloSign will notify us via an email sent to Help Scout. HelloSign also sends a daily summary of how many documents are out for signature.
You can also log in at any time to check the status of agreements that are pending. If more than a couple of days goes by without a response, get in touch with the organizer to see what the status is.
