Free Newsletter Writer
Service Agreement
One month of grinding on a series is down the drain when a client ghosts your invoice and blocks your number. You’re left holding the bag on overhead while they profit off your words for free.
Pro Contractor Tip
Stick a 'Late Payment Penalty' clause in there with a compounding percentage, because your time isn't a free loan for their business.
Why use a written agreement?
Handshake deals are risky. As a Newsletter Writer, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
The client keeps asking for 'one more tweak'—how do I stop the bleeding?
Define your scope to include exactly two rounds of revisions; any more than that is a Change Order that hits their wallet, and having it in writing keeps their 'idea' machine from running you into the ground.
I’m worried they’ll take my draft and never send the wire.
Demand a 50% upfront deposit before you even crack a book; if they won't put skin in the game on day one, they’re going to stiff you on day thirty.
What happens if they cancel the whole campaign after I've already done the work?
That is why you bake in a 'Kill Fee'—it ensures you get paid for the labor you’ve already put in even if the client decides to shut down the project.
