Question 6

What if things change and I need to reschedule my project?

Accepted Answer

Upon confirming the project with a signed contract you will be required to review and the project schedule. Prior to signing the contract, we can go over all deadlines to ensure it is possible for both parties.    If we are half-way through the project and your commitment to the agreed timelines change you can request for your project to be rescheduled to a later date. Please note this will require an additional fee "anticipation fee" for the time required to complete the rest of the project. The anticipation fee is only set should the project be delayed over 2 months.

Question 7

What happens if there is a delay on my end in providing feedback?

Accepted Answer

All our projects are pre-booked and timelines are planned to ensure each client is getting the utmost attention. This also means that you're paying upfront to secure the service being completed by the designated date. For us to meet the deadlines, we provide 5 business days for you to send feedback. This is set up to ensure that we meet your project deadlines accordingly. Should timelines not be met on your end it will result in a fee due to the extra time added to the project deadline. To avoid this please let us know your availability as soon as possible.
