Terms and Conditions (T&Cs) are a vital part of your business activities, but they can be difficult to create, harder still to amend, and should never ever be overlooked. For Dubai business, where there is so much competition, fast-moving windows of opportunity, and a need to ensure every expectation and legislative responsibility is completely covered, having the ability to streamline and make terms and conditions templates that work on a granular level can be a game changer In this article we look at how terms and conditions are usually created, the challenges that are common when creating T&Cs, the technology you need to streamline the process effectively, what TEB Apps can do to bring your business a competitive edge, and how you can even build on your connections and knowledge base with our upcoming event.

What is the usual process for creating terms and conditions for your Dubai Business?

T&Cs have important roles to play in business and must cover a few key elements, they must:

Key areas terms and conditions must cover
  • Be clear and set out terms for both parties (you and your client/s)
  • Detail roles, rights and responsibilities of both parties
  • Protect intellectual property of the company
  • Connect to any necessary legal documents or policies

Crafting terms and conditions templates can be time consuming - they have to meet law and legislative needs for the area, cover the right content for the specific sale, have the right clauses and terms, and be carefully reviewed in order to ensure they are complete and legally binding.

This creation process is usually done as a multi-stage operation, with each step being reviewed and assessed to ensure the right elements are in place.

Having tools which can help you manage your activities and streamline your actions can make an enormous difference when it comes to the quality of the documents you produce, what you can do with your resources, and the morale of your team as they handle their daily workloads.

What challenges in creating terms and conditions manually are often found?

Manually creating T&Cs can be difficult, and often it needs to vary between payment types, customers, the types of product or other elements.

Because creation of these terms and conditions templates takes so much time and effort, it is not uncommon to find companies producing generic T&Cs that loosely cover what is needed. This can cause problems if clients have issues, and the T&Cs are not specific enough.

Other key challenges that Dubai business operators find with T&Cs include:

  • Important clauses and terms being mishandled or missed out entirely, leaving the business vulnerable to lawsuits or other issues.
  • Critical clauses, such as restrictions, modifications of T&Cs, warranties, account termination reasons, being left incomplete due to a lack of understanding on what must be included in the document.
  • Legally applicable information such as location or jurisdiction being overlooked
  • Lack of correct and up-to-date references and links to important documents
  • Creating unenforceable content as there is a lack of agreement with customers on the content of the terms.

There is also the issue with budget and resources, when trying to handle terms and conditions creating manually, a lot of time and resource usage can be expected, which can be extremely expensive. This not only leads to overspend and a reduction in profits but can also damage team morale because tasks are taking up time they would be better spent using on profitable endeavours.

How can technology help you streamline how you create terms and conditions templates?

Bringing in the right tools to handle your terms can free up time, resources, and budget for you to use in more efficient ways.

Technology such as Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Business Process Automation (BPA), and Terms & Conditions management will allow you to develop terms that always:

How automation helps terms and conditions creation
  • Meet brand standards
  • Contain the necessary legal information
  • Adapt to the needs of the specific customer
  • Contain the right clauses and terms
  • Maintain data security and protection of sensitive data
  • Meet client needs on time

Dubai business is constantly evolving - it moves at a rapid and never slowing pace. Opportunities need to be seized as soon as possible, and having automation that you can rely on to produce T&Cs that are always accurate will allow you to shorten your overall sales cycle and give your clients or providers even more reasons to trust your business and be happy to do business with you.
