Entrepreneurs are using Adobe Acrobat to take their businesses into the future

Without the unlimited funds and staff of large enterprises, every little action can be the difference between growth and stagnation. This means choosing where to invest in digital technology is critical – something Sarah Bolitho, the founder and CEO of HR recruitment firm Levyl, has learned first-hand.

“We’re a lean team operating across different regions,” Kay says. “A lot of our partners are based in the US and Europe, so obviously being able to be online wherever we are in the world is supercritical. There are a lot of efficiencies that we get from using digital tech as well.” Kay says: “We’ve got suppliers all over the world and that makes that process really seamless. All of our contracts come to us as a PDF and it’s easy to quickly mark up the contract and sign it and get it back.”For Bolitho, getting contracts signed digitally is the default, with paper contracts quickly becoming a thing of the past. One reason is environmental, but the other is more about oversight.

For a recruitment professional like Bolitho, collaboration through Acrobat makes polishing candidate résumés seamless. “If we have a candidate that says, ‘Hey, I’m looking at embarking on my job search but I don’t know if I’m pitching myself in the right way. Have I put my responsibilities in the right order? Is my executive bio strong?’, it’s a much easier way to do feedback rather than long emails and jumping on phone calls where things can be misconstrued,” Bolitho says.
