Web
Site Development Contracts
1)
Spend time interviewing the client about
the job. Not only will this help you determine
first hand what the client's needs are,
but also it will help the client view you
as a professional. A good first impression
will help you later on when it comes time
for payment.
2)
Put together a work order based on what
was discussed in the interview. This will
be your proposal to the client to begin
working on their project. You will need
to spell out all of the terms, delivery
dates, number of pages, editing guidelines,
deposits and payment terms. You also need
to include all of the options discussed
in your interview with the client. A formal
proposal says that you are a professional.
