A Dropbox Case Study
Martin Sign Company, a San Francisco maker of handcrafted signage founded by Martin Wall, struggled with slow, insecure file sharing — relying on DVDs, external drives and an on-site server that blocked remote access — as it grew from a two-person shop into a team serving thousands of clients. Increased email traffic and a new designer highlighted the need for a professional, scalable way to share large design files and proofs.
Adopting Dropbox Business let the team use file requests and shared folders for client uploads, keep projects synced across office, mobile and remote workers, and transfer accounts when staff changed, while avoiding the cost of an on-premises server. The result: faster collaboration, mobile productivity, better control of creative assets, and the scalability to grow to 10 employees and over 2,000 clients.
