STRATEGY & DESIGN
The livewell media provides a range of services including but not limited to: branding and design, video production, photography, social media management, SEO optimization, paid advertising, email marketing, and other marketing services.
For branding and design services, the livewell media will deliver a branding strategy, design a new logo only if agreed upon in advance with the Client, and provide a branding guidelines document upon completion. The Client will have two weeks to review the work and provide feedback. If the Client is dissatisfied with the direction of the work at any point, they must pay in full for all work produced up to that point before cancelling this contract with 30 days written notice as stated in Section 8.1.
Once services are provided, payments are non-refundable under any circumstances, including but not limited to dissatisfaction with the services or termination of the agreement.
ERRORS
The livewell media cannot guarantee error-free services. We are not liable to the Client or any third-party for damages including but not limited to lost profits, lost savings, or other incidental, consequential or special damages, regardless of whether we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
2.0 Mutual Cooperation
The Client agrees to provide prompt information and cooperation to The Livewell Media to facilitate agreed upon services. The Client acknowledges success and satisfaction relies upon their full and timely cooperation. The Livewell Media cannot guarantee specific outcomes without Client's cooperation.
3.0 Fees
The total project budget is as agreed upon in advance. Requests above and beyond the budget may be considered out-of-scope and subject to additional fees as an amendment to the budget.
Image licensing outside of The Livewell Media’s hosting services will be charged at $99 per image per year.
Any additional third party costs such as editing fees, production costs, or other external services will be charged upfront as a single payment.
4.0 PAYMENT TERMS
4.1 BILLING SCHEDULE
Understanding the crucial role of prompt payments in small businesses, we highlight the necessity for The Client to adhere to the payment schedule. Our terms for all projects include a fifty percent (50%) deposit, with the remaining balance due upon project completion. For projects with multiple phases, payment is required in advance for each phase. The Livewell Media will issue an invoice at contract initiation, acting as the deposit. Balances must be cleared within 7 business days. Any additional costs, such as editing fees or licensing, demand an upfront single payment. The Client must provide all necessary purchase order numbers and information for invoicing purposes.
4.2 CLIENT AGREEMENT TO PAY
The Client is obligated to pay the initial invoice, which serves as the project deposit, upon receipt. Subsequent invoices are subject to a 7-day payment term. Overdue balances incur a late payment fee of 3% per overdue month, increasing to 3% per day after six months. Non-payment may result in suspension of work and access to cloud services by The Livewell Media.
4.3 COLLECTION COSTS
Should The Livewell Media incur legal fees or other costs in efforts to collect overdue invoices, The Client agrees to reimburse these expenses, including any interest on the unpaid balance.
4.4 RECURRING BUSINESS

The Livewell Media operates on a fixed-fee basis. After services are rendered, all payments become non-refundable, irrespective of service satisfaction or contract termination.
