Professional fees
The service fee for briefing, representative time, project management, outreach, reporting, and agreed deliverables.
PAYMENTS & SECURITY
Secure, transparent engagements.
Professional fees, direct expenses, payment schedules, scope, and cancellation terms should be clear before deployment.
Direct expenses
Event registration, travel, lodging, shipping, printing, and other approved pass-through costs.
Payment methods
Production infrastructure can support cards, ACH, wire transfer, and appropriate international payment methods.
Security
Use established third-party processors rather than storing sensitive payment-card data directly.
BEFORE PAYMENT
Know exactly what is being purchased.
A client proposal should state scope, deliverables, representative level, market, dates, expense limits, reporting cadence, authority limits, and cancellation terms.
