In just three years, they’ve become a name in the wellness space and a central supplier to mainstream markets. Their CBD drops, gummies and drinks are on sale via [their online store](https://www.goodrays.com/collections/all/) , as well as in Tesco, Waitrose, WHSmith [and more](https://www.goodrays.com/pages/store-locator) . Goodrays have achieved some seriously impressive growth since they started in 2019, growing 420% in year two and on track to close out 2023 with a further 150% growth. 📈 🥳 It’s all thanks to the team’s fierce focus, high-quality products backed by science and a lean business model that prioritises profitability.

We spoke to Eoin to get the lowdown on how we helped 👇 ## Enable a lean approach Goodrays have been careful to run a lean business from the start (ie: they maximise value while minimising waste). Using our full set of services was a no-brainer when it came to supporting this lean approach because it meant Goodrays could: - Save money on legal fees by creating contracts themselves - Save time by creating contracts fast with our automated workflow - Access a variety of tools for early-stage startups in one place > We were so impressed with the variety of tools for early-stage startups, which cut out a lot of the need for expensive legal fees. > > [Eoin Keenan](https://www.linkedin.com/in/eoin-keenan-009a8380/) > Founder & CEO, > > [Goodrays](https://www.goodrays.com/) > > - [https://www.linkedin.com/in/eoin-keenan-009a8380/](https://www.linkedin.com/in/eoin-keenan-009a8380/) A peek inside SeedLegals: The menu on the left shows the variety of services we offer ## Maximise speed and flexibility For Goodrays, the best thing about using SeedLegals is the speed and flexibility it gives them to: - Send documents to investors immediately and close deals within a day - Create and sign team agreements within minutes - Raise small amounts of capital any time an opportunity arises > When you’re raising capital or hiring team members, it’s so important to strike while the iron’s hot. Having that speed and agility is really helpful. SeedLegals allows you to have a fast, efficient process with investors. You can go from having a conversation you’re both excited about to getting the deal over the line within 24 to 48 hours. You have to make sure things move quickly, without the deal getting bottlenecked with a legal team. > > [Eoin Keenan](https://www.linkedin.com/in/eoin-keenan-009a8380/) > Founder & CEO, > > [Goodrays](https://www.goodrays.com/) > > - [https://www.linkedin.com/in/eoin-keenan-009a8380/](https://www.linkedin.com/in/eoin-keenan-009a8380/) ## Take full control No waiting on lawyers, no being lost on what your company contracts actually mean – Goodrays loves the fact that with SeedLegals, they: - Have full visibility on all their startup essentials in one place - Create, sign and share contracts whenever they want, without relying on anyone externally - Easily understand what each contract and clause means > I love the way SeedLegals breaks things down for you into each individual clause.

[Sign up for our newsletters](https://seedlegals.com/newsletters/) ## Eoin’s advice for fellow founders “Time is your most precious resource. More so than capital. Spending your time efficiently delivers the best results and helps you stay focused. Apply this to your team as well: where should they be spending time? When you’re in a startup with a small team and limited resources, the list of all the things you possibly do is infinite – it can be easy to work on the wrong things, so I think success is down to **doing the right things at the right time.** When you prioritise your time efficiently and take things one day at a time, breaking everything down into small bite-size chunks, before you know it you’ll have compounding gains from that focus and efficiency. “ ## Find out how we can help you Want to sort out your startup legals the modern, easy way?
