Streamlined throughout two decades in business, my working terms are straightforward because it’s simple working with me.
Payment
You’ll make a non-refundable 50 percent payment before the project begins. Work is scheduled as soon as payment is received. The remaining amount is payable when you’re happy the work has been completed to the highest standard. Final design files are supplied upon full payment.
Bank transfers are to be made in GBP (Great British Pounds). My account details are within each invoice. Some of my overseas clients have saved money in bank fees by using wise.com.
Rights and ownership
On full payment you’ll own the final designs created during the project. Essentially, you won’t need my permission to do anything with the supplied files. The only right I reserve is the ability to use the work for self-promotion, such as in my portfolio, publications, award entries, and exhibitions.
Communication
Call me on 07739530457 (or 447739530457 from outside the UK), Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, between 9am and 5pm UK time. I reply to emails within a few hours between Monday and Friday. Video calls on Zoom, Skype, WhatsApp, etc., can be scheduled in advance.
Confidentiality
If any of your project details need to remain between us then just let me know beforehand. You can trust me to keep things under wraps, although as in the “rights” section above, I do share the designs I create.
Indemnity
I added this section on the recommendation of major design organisations.
You agree to indemnify me from any claims, demands, losses, causes of action, damage, lawsuits, judgments, including attorneys’ fees and costs, but only to the extent caused by and arising out of the work I supply.
That probably sounds off-putting, so let me just add that my work has never resulted in a legal dispute, and I’ve been at this game for quite a while.
Digital files
The design files I supply on completion will be stored at my end for at least one year. There’ll be no charge to resend.
Samples
You agree to mail me samples of print that result from what I’ve designed, whether that’s a brochure, business cards, packaging, and so on. I can then photograph the samples for self-promotion.
Consensus
These terms are supplied in writing with the first invoice. Receipt of your downpayment lets me know you’re happy to accept, and I’ll be delighted to get to work.
That’s it.
Any questions, just ask.
