The Fine Print, in Plain English

How Billing Works

  1. Every project starts with a free 30-minute discovery call and a written quote before any work begins.
  2. Projects of $500 or more start with a 50% deposit, with the balance due at delivery. Projects of $3,000 or more are billed 40% to start, 30% at design approval and 30% at launch.
  3. Invoices are due within 15 days. Overdue balances may be charged 1.5% per month.
  4. Two rounds of revisions are included on design, writing and video. More revisions are billed at the hourly rate for that category.
  5. Hourly work is billed in 15-minute increments. Rush work needed in under 3 business days adds 25%.
  6. Monthly plans are billed at the start of each month and can be canceled with 30 days' notice.
  7. Third-party costs such as domains, software, email, printing and ad spend are paid by the client directly, in accounts the client owns.
  8. The client owns the final files and accounts once paid in full. Apex may show completed work in its portfolio unless the client opts out.
