Free Business Coach
Service Agreement
One handshake deal goes south and you're staring at a four-figure hole in your pocket while some suit walks away with your trade secrets for free. You aren't a charity; stop letting deadbeat clients bleed your bank account dry because you didn't lock down the terms.
Pro Contractor Tip
Insert a 'Kill Fee' clause to ensure you get paid for your time and overhead even if the client decides to scrap the project halfway through.
Why use a written agreement?
Handshake deals are risky. As a Business Coach, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens when the client starts asking for 'quick favors' outside of our meetings?
That's scope creep, and it’s a parasite. Use your written agreement to define exactly what's included so you can point to the document and issue a change order for more money when they try to tack on extra labor.
How do I stop a client from calling my personal cell at 9:00 PM on a Sunday?
Define your 'on-site' hours in the contract. Having those boundaries in writing gives you the leverage to ignore the noise and tells the client that access to your brain has a start and end time.
What do I do if the client stops paying but still wants their weekly sessions?
You put your tools down immediately. A solid contract should state that work halts the moment an invoice hits its expiration date, ensuring you don't burn more billable hours on a job that isn't funded.
