Policies
Review the usual principles for scope, communication, scheduling, revisions, payment, ownership, support and handover.
Effective October 26, 2026
These are the usual working principles. Your written quote and signed work agreement state the terms for your project and control when they differ.
The quote names the result, included work, price, timing, responsibilities and next action. An addition, removal or changed direction is explained, priced and approved in writing before the affected work begins.
The project records the main communication channel, reply window, meeting plan, update schedule and the method used for approvals and revisions.
A hard deadline is identified before signing. Other dates are estimates based on timely access, content, decisions, feedback, approvals and third-party platform behavior. A foreseeable delay is communicated as soon as it becomes apparent.
The included revision rounds, feedback format, review window, testing responsibilities and final approval method are written into the project documents.
The quote states the deposit or payment schedule, accepted method, pause and restart treatment, cancellation process and refund conditions before payment.
An error caused by Derek's work and inside the signed scope is corrected without another professional fee during the agreed support period. The agreement states the period, response window and support limits.
Customer changes, incomplete information, changed credentials, expired subscriptions, platform behavior and new requests are reviewed for their effect on scope, price and schedule before additional work begins.
Business accounts remain in the customer's name whenever the platform allows it. The quote identifies ownership, source access, licenses, subscriptions and the files or documentation included in handover.
The project states whether rollback is technically possible, which versions are kept, how long copies are retained and what the customer receives at handover.
Permission to publish a testimonial, identify the business, show work in a portfolio or send marketing email is requested separately. Each choice stands on its own.
An extraordinary event calls for prompt communication and a revised plan. The signed agreement contains the attorney-reviewed language governing the project's legal rights and obligations.
The quote identifies the files, account access, walkthrough, written guide, training and post-handover support selected for the project.
The Working Together page shows the same principles in the order a buyer experiences them, from the first inquiry through handover.
Tell me the result you want and where I can see the business now. I use that information to identify the most useful service or package and decide whether I can quote it in writing. If one missing detail changes the work or price, I will ask for that detail or suggest a short call.
