No work will commence until the deposit clears. The remaining balance is invoiced Net 15 as agreed to in our service agreement.
Referrals are the highest compliment we can receive, and we’re truly grateful when people spread the word about us. Whether you’re a current client, a potential client, or simply someone who knows us, if a person you refer books with us, you’ll receive a thank-you payment. The new client will also receive a discount on their first invoice. Clients and potential clients can choose to take their thank-you as a credit toward their own invoice or as an online payment. Just have your referral mention your name when they reach out, and we’ll take care of the rest.
Typical check-ins are weekly or biweekly, depending on project pace. You’ll also receive brief status reports via email or your preferred project-management tool.
