We
like to work at our client's comfort level, so feel free to choose
any of the following, or perhaps submit your own:
-
HOURLY:
Not recommended, because it usually piles up pretty fast. Not
unlike lawyers, however, some creative/marketing firms do hire
out by the hour. When we do, there is a two hour minimum. In times
of crisis or absolute rush, hourly is often convenient.
- PROJECT:
Each project is divided into two parts: concept and production.
Concept begins with strategy development and ends at the "thumbnail"
stage. Body copy is not included. Production begins the physical
construction through delivery to your doorstep (although some
clients prefer to handle some production such as printing by themselves).
Each project is bid in writing (see below).
-
MONTHLY FEE:
The advantage of monthly fee is one of cost containment, unlimited
phone access, front-burner attention and more frequent on-site
meetings. Creative fees are discounted, as well. Monthly fees
are paid the first of the month prior to that month's work.
- EQUITY:
A good creative marketer does good ads. A great marketer does
good deals. One of the characteristics that separates Digital
Productions from competitors is that we understand the potential
and future values of companies. As a result, we have been asked
to become equity partners in client organizations. These arrangements
are negotiated on individual basis.
- TRANSACTIONS:
Another aspect of Digital Productions that bears mention is our
ability to bring working third-party partners together to form
symbiotic business relationships. Strategic alliances, and client
introductions are all part of a comprehensive marketing effort.
Digital Productions actively pursues these opportunities for its
clients, with remuneration negotiated on individual basis.

Less
paperwork, more productive work!
- ESTIMATES:
All projects begin with a written Estimate, which outlines pretty
much what is - or is not - covered by the fees found at the bottom
of the form. The Estimates are designed to keep paperwork to a
minimum. We fax , or email the Estimate to you, and if it meets
with your approval, you simply check the "Fax Authorization"
box, sign where indicated and fax it back. It's that simple. For
your protection, no work begins until the Estimate is signed.
- APPROVALS:
Each project is produced digitally, which allows for all projects
to be faxed or emailed to you in order to be monitored for progress.
We can also arrange to prepare ftp access to files on our web
site to speed approval times. At times, it may be appropriate
for your representative to sign off (make his approval) on a project.
It is perfectly fine to do this by fax.
We strongly urge that you appoint one person in charge of final
approval for all Digital Productions projects. Nothing kills good
ideas faster than committees and nothing wastes more hours of
consultation time.
