This price will increase if the assessment will cover multiple subjects, pieces of content, and/or particularly complex subject matter. I will quote you a specific price following our initial consultation. The price of the needs assessment will be applied to any content package that you book.
Content package
starts at $499
The starting price gets you 15 edited slides, 10 newly created basic slides, or 5 newly created complex slides (i.e. multiple layers). Or it gets you up to 3 documents of up to 3 pages each with no graphic elements besides basic branding. Elements that will raise the price might include:
- Additional content beyond what is listed above.
- Voice over or any other audio elements.
- Particularly complex subject matter.
- Complex graphic elements.
I will create an itemized quote for your package based on the results of your needs assessment. Revisions are included in the price of your package. Scope creep is not.
Read more about scope creep
Expanding the scope of the original package to include new elements or additional content will be considered scope creep, and will require that the contract be renegotiated.
Scope Creep
Requesting slides be added to a presentation or eLearning that cover a topic that wasn’t included in the original project plan
Adding voice over to an explainer video that originally had music
Asking for handouts to go with the originally requested presentation
Not Scope Creep
Requesting that the content of an existing slide be broken out into multiple slides
Changing the music for an explainer video
Asking to have the font and pagination changed on documents
I will do my best to ask the right questions to ensure that your package includes all the elements you need. Needs can change, and I am happy to work with you to accommodate those changes when they happen, but please understand that this may result in changes to the cost and deadline.
Payment
I accept payment through the following methods:
- Paypal
- ACH transfer
- Check made out to Tapley Trudell
Payments are due on the following schedule:
- Needs assessment: due at time of booking
- Content package:
- A 50% deposit (less the cost of the needs assessment) is due prior to the delivery of the first milestone.
- The final 50% will be invoiced once all the deliverables have been received and approved. Payment will be due within 30 days. Late payment will incur a fee of 1% of the balance owed for each month that the payment is overdue.
Refund Policy and Money-Back Guarantee
My goal is for all of my clients to be utterly thrilled with the services I perform for them. I also want clients to feel comfortable taking the leap and booking a package with me, even if they have never booked anything like this before or they are unfamiliar with my work.
All of my content creation packages include a clearly spelled out list of deliverables that will be considered the first milestone. The purpose of the first milestone is to make sure that we are on the same page, and my work is aligned with your vision. If we aren’t, I will work with you however I can to get us synced up. If this process doesn’t work, or if for any other reason you do not want to move forward with our contract, you can invoke my money-back guarantee, and I will refund your deposit, less the charge for the needs assessment.
There will be no refunds after the first milestone has been approved. However, if further down the line you decide that you want to reduce the scope of the project, or don’t want to move forward at all, I will be happy to discuss reducing or removing the balance due on the contract.
The final payment is not due until all of the deliverables have been approved, so once that balance is paid, there will be no refunds.
