Payment

Fees for document production are payable in segments. The first segment is 50% of the quoted price, payable on production of first draft. The remainder is payable on acceptance of the final master document.

Additional costs such as printing and quantity electronic production are payable on delivery, unless arrangements have been made to pay the supplier direct.

Fees for web sites are also payable in segments. We ask a 25% deposit on the quoted price before production begins. When the web site style and layout are completed, 50% of the remainder is payable and the balance on completion.
