This is the episode that puts together all the previous episodes and ideas into one full process overview…
· We run through the four big Secrets of Productive Contracts
· We step through six steps of how to make a Reverse Sandwich Contract™ which makes use of those four contract secrets

In Episode 01 (Productive Contracts: Reverse Sandwich Contracts), we met our productivity powerhouse, the Reverse Sandwich Contract™. We learnt the basic concept and structure of a Reverse Sandwich Contract and why it makes for a tasty contracting experience.

In Episode 02 (A contract is not a bit of paper), we started thinking digitally about how we work with contracts and contract users.

By Episode 03 (Be a lazy lawyer) and Episode 04 (Delegate like Beyonce), we were starting to think like a lazy lawyer and keep a look out for minions so we can delegate like Beyonce.

From Episode 05 (Triple O Productivity) all the way to Episode 10 (How to map a contract process), we covered a lot of productivity ground. We learnt how to apply Triple O Productivity to everything we touch – the contract document (Episode 06) and contract process (Episode 09) – to streamline our contract into a productivity producing beast. We learnt the SLAPP test in Episode 07 to streamline contracts and we tried to lose legalese from our contracts in Episode 08.

Now, it is time to put all the secrets together and make our very own Reverse Sandwich Contract™. 

Let’s recap the Secrets of Productive Contracts

1. MAKE A REVERSE SANDWICH CONTRACT
Useful and usable | Structure your contract for the future to get productivity wins on the board, fast. See Episode 01.

2. YOUR CONTRACT IS NOT A BIT OF PAPER
Think digitally | Start thinking digitally to see your contract (and life!) for what it really is and what it can be.

3. BE A LAZY LAWYER
Delegate like Beyoncé | Learn to automate and outsource. Always lookout for minions (human and robot) who can effectively do a contractual task, leaving you to increase your skills in higher value areas. See Episode 02. 

4. TRIPLE O PRODUCTIVITY
Apply TOP for your contract document and contract process
Write for readability | Obliterate, Optimise and Outsource your contract document for massive productivity gains. SLAPP your contract into shape. Use the SLAPP system’s five key document angles to confirm your contract document is at its productive peak – Structure, Looks, Automation, Plain language , Pictures.

>>> Be curious | Obliterate, Optimise and Outsource your contract process for an ongoing efficiency pay off. Don’t put lipstick on a process pig! Fix your contract processes.
