Terms
of Service
Each
client is unique and requires special attention when it comes
to invoicing for my services. I work closely with you to make
sure the method you choose is prepared to fit your needs.
I am always available to
discuss your specific requirements.
The following is a basic guideline
for you to see how we can establish a good working relationship.
Contracts:
A signed contract is required
prior to the establishing of a business relationship. The contract
outlines all the details so there is no confusion of what is
expected by both parties.
Method of Invoicing:
All invoices are sent via email
with an attached time sheet. KH&C uses TrackTime and QuickBooksPro
2003 Time Tracker.
Expenses incurred for
projects are accurately tracked and added to the invoices.
KH&C does not charge for minor, miscellaneous expenses;
however postage, shipping costs, long distance and printing
through an outside source are reimbursed.
With today's technology
there are several ways now to send payment for services rendered.
I hope that you will find the following ways convenient.
U.S. Mail
Money Order
Cashier's Check
Business/Personal Check
If you prefer to utilize online payment, I accept
the following:

My clients NEVER pay for
a "learning curve" unless proprietary knowledge is
needed for the project.
Hourly
Plan:
All work performed under this
Plan will be billed at an hourly rate.
An invoice will be presented
to you each month with my detailed Time Sheet in order to determine
how much time was spent on a particular project.
There may be a deposit
required for large projects.
Retainer Plan:
Often, clients like to start
with a per-project arrangement, in order to get a feel of how
the relationship will work. By using KH&C as your VA, we
are creating a partnership, so to speak. Using a monthly retainer
based upon your needs enables us to develop a strong, professional
relationship, and retainer fees are discounted to save you
10%-20% of our standard hourly rate.
I offer a monthly retainer
of 10 hours or more per month.
A monthly invoice will
be emailed to you with a time sheet attached.
Custom Pricing Plans/Per
Project:
As we all know, there are times
when you must have a project completed outside of normal business
hours. A surcharge will apply to all "Rush" and Evening/Weekend
project deadlines. This is something both KH&C and the
client will discuss and agree to prior to the assignment.
I am always available
to my clients should the need arise.
Due to the varying nature
of services provided to my clients, quotes are provided on
a per-project basis. A 50% deposit is required on all project
plan assignments prior to work being started.
I am happy to discuss
a customized pricing plan that can be tailored to fit your
particular needs. Once we establish the assignment I can determine
a price that you are comfortable with.
Other Terms:
- My
fees for services performed are billed in real time, by the minute.
-
Once
I determine the scope of the project, a 50% deposit may be
required before work can begin.
- There
is a fee for returned checks in the amount of $25.00.
- There
is a fee imposed for late payment. This fee is a percentage
of the outstanding balance.
- I
hope this information has helped you in understanding how KH&C
charges for services and should you have any questions, please
do not hesitate to contact
me.
