How it works

The terms behind every package.

It starts with your brand platformEvery monthly package starts after a Brand Foundation, or a Brand Story or Brand Documentary, which include one. Every post and ad is checked against it.
Three months, then month to monthThe first term is three months. After that it runs month to month, and either side can end it with 30 days' written notice.
Billed in advanceInvoices go out on the 25th for the following month.
You approve everythingEach month's posts and ads come to you as one batch. Nothing goes live until you approve it.
Your accounts stay yoursWe work through a partner or manager role on each platform. You stay the owner, and we never ask for your passwords.
No promised numbersNobody can promise reach, leads or sales. We agree on one or two business outcomes, measure them from a baseline taken in the first week, and report against it every month.
Ad spend is yoursOn the ads package, Meta bills your own card from your own ad account. Our fee and your ad spend are separate.
ProjectsHalf to hold your dates and half before the final files. Two rounds of revisions. Files are delivered by download link, and the finished films are yours once the final invoice is paid.

Questions

Why does every monthly package start with a Brand Foundation?

Every post, film and ad is checked against the brand platform it produces. It also sets the baseline the monthly reports are measured against.

Does the Brand Foundation fee carry over?

Counts in full toward a Brand Story, a Brand Documentary or your first monthly invoice if you start within 30 days.

Do you guarantee results?

No. Nobody can honestly promise reach, leads or sales. We agree on one or two business outcomes with you, measure them from a baseline taken in the first week, and report against it every month.

Who pays for ads?

You do, directly to Meta from your own ad account. Our fee and your ad spend are separate, and a monthly spending cap is set inside the account.

Who owns the films?

You own the finished films once the final invoice is paid. Raw footage and project files stay with us.

How do payments work?

Projects are half to hold your dates and half before the final files. Monthly packages are billed in advance, on the 25th for the following month.

Can I cancel a monthly package?

After the first three months, with 30 days' written notice.

Do you answer our messages and DMs?

No. You handle messages and inquiries. On the ads package we moderate comments on your ads.
