Hey @Brionna!
How do you recommend handling NDAs with clients, especially when your workforce is primarily part time freelancers?
We have an NDA in place with our editors and I have no problem asking prospects to send me one that we can sign as the company to cover everyone, but sometimes I get pushback from prospects/clients insisting that the individuals sign them to. Thus far I’ve pushed back and said no, it’s not needed, but I’ve lost a deal or two because of it.
Any advice on how to handle this?
Hmm, if you already have a confidentiality agreement in place with your workforce to keep client info confidential, then clients should not also require the individuals to sign their NDAs. You're right to push back on this. I would offer to let them see the confidentiality provision in the agreement that all your part-time contractors sign to work for you and see what happens
Honestly, if they don't take your word on this that your people are confidentiality bound, it's probably better that they walked. There's a misalignment of values/distrust from the start.
