Proposals & Contracts · viewing, signing, accepting digitally

Both proposals and contracts use the same pattern · a public URL containing a unique token. The token is the access secret · anyone holding the URL can view the document. Three things to know:

• No login needed · click the link · the document renders immediately.
• Permanent · the URL is the same forever. Safe to bookmark.
• Trackable · the rep on our side can see when you first opened it, how many times, and whether you've signed.

A proposal URL looks like https://www.b2bgrowthhub.com/proposals/<token>. When you open it you see:

• Header · your company name, the engine + tier being proposed, the total investment, the rep's name.
• Solution summary · what we're proposing to do, why, and the outcome we expect.
• Deliverable list · Schedule 4 codes you'll get at this tier · the contractual scope.
• Pricing breakdown · membership fee, registration fee, VAT.
• Action buttons at the bottom · Accept, Request changes, or just close the tab.

1. Click "Accept proposal" at the bottom of the page.
2. Fill in your name, title, and the company you're accepting on behalf of.
3. Type "I accept" in the confirmation field · this captures intent in an audit-safe way.
4. Submit. The page flips to a "Proposal accepted · we'll send the contract shortly" state.

Once accepted, the rep is notified and the contract is generated automatically · usually arrives within 1 business day.

If something needs to change before you can accept:

1. Click "Request changes" at the bottom.
2. Specify what needs to change · price, scope, timeline, or specific deliverables.
3. Submit. The rep on our side is notified and will respond with a revised proposal at a new URL · the old URL stays viewable for reference.

You can request changes as many times as you need. Each round generates a fresh proposal URL · the rep tracks the history.

A contract URL looks like https://www.b2bgrowthhub.com/contract/<token>. On open you see:

• Header · the contract title, status badge (Draft / Sent / Viewed / Signed by supplier / Counter-signed / Expired / Cancelled), creation date, your view count.
• Rendered legal copy · the full Supplier Registration Agreement with your details pre-populated. Scroll the whole thing · the page tracks how far you read.
• Signature block at the bottom · this is where you sign.

Online signing is canvas-based · works on phones, tablets and desktops:

1. Scroll to the signature block.
2. Type your name and title (e.g. "Managing Director").
3. Draw your signature on the canvas · use a finger on mobile / tablet, or the mouse on desktop. Hit "Clear" to redo if needed.
4. Click "Sign contract". The page captures · in addition to the signature itself · the timestamp, your IP and your browser identifier. This is the audit trail.
5. The status flips to Signed by supplier.

1. The B2B Growth Hub operator counter-signs within 1 business day. Status flips to Fully executed.
2. Both parties receive an email confirmation with the permanent contract URL.
3. Onboarding begins · ops reaches out to start the profile-building sessions covered in the supplier journey guide.

Bookmark your contract URL. It stays at the same address forever · counter-signed PDF copies are available from the same page. You'll never have to chase a copy.

If you ever want a PDF export · the browser's "Print → Save as PDF" produces an accurate copy. We don't currently auto-generate PDFs server-side, but the rendered page is print-styled to look right on paper.

• Wrong details on the contract · don't sign. Email your rep with the corrections · they'll cancel this contract and generate a new one.
• Disagreement with a clause · don't sign. Email your rep with the clause number and the proposed amendment.
• Post-signature change · amendments to an executed contract are handled as a new addendum, signed the same way · not by editing the original.
• Disputes · legal first, then ops. The contract page is the source of truth · don't accept verbal amendments outside it.

• "This contract has been cancelled" · the rep cancelled it (usually to issue a corrected version). Look for a new email with a new link, or email the rep.
• "This contract has expired" · proposals and contracts have a validity window (typically 14 or 30 days). Email the rep for a fresh one.
• Signature canvas not responding on mobile · try landscape orientation, or switch to a different browser. The canvas works on all modern browsers but some embedded webviews (e.g. inside email clients) block touch events.
• Lost the link · ask the rep · they have it in their lead detail page.
