Terms & Conditions

The following terms and conditions apply to all work completed by Nomadic, LLC for our clients (“you”). By e-signing this proposal, you are accepting the terms & conditions described herein.

// Products + Services

This agreement covers the products and/or services outlined in the proposal we have created for you. We are committed to providing you with these products and services in a timely and professional manner. Should you request a change in the scope of these products and services, please contact us, indicating what you would like to change. If the requested changes would materially change the scope and cost of the project, we will provide an updated cost for products/services in writing, which must be agreed upon by all parties before proceeding.

// Cost + Payment

The total cost of our services is clearly outlined in the proposal we have prepared for your project. Payment is due at signing, and again after the completion of set project milestones, unless otherwise specified in the proposal we have provided you. For exact payment terms, contact your project manager.

// Timeline and Payment

We are committed to meeting the timelines specified for your project. We will begin work on the agreed-upon date and continue until the services we have agreed to provide are completed. We will keep you informed of project progress with regular updates, and share our work using file sharing tools such as Google Drive. Web design & development projects include a 2-week “warranty” period following launch, wherein you may request bugs to be fixed free of charge. We strategically plan and schedule each of our website projects on a timeline that should be completed between three to six months, and the cost reflects that amount of time.

Web Design & Development

  • Agile Payment Terms
    • Agile payment plans require a minimum engagement period in order to activate and retain Nomadic LLC, with the plan converting to month to month following the completion of the commitment period.
  • Fixed Payment Terms:
    • 50% for initial deposit and project start.
    • 25% at agreed-upon milestone as outlined in Proposal or week 12, whichever comes first.
    • 25% following website launch on live domain or week 20, whichever comes first.

Digital Marketing

  • Research and Discovery, management, and continuous improvement fees are to be made prior to the work being completed.
  • Adspend fees are calculated and paid as a percentage of the previous month’s ad-spend.
  • As part of the monthly ad campaign management, Nomadic will continuously monitor and optimize ad campaigns. This includes shifting some of the total adspend around to the different campaigns. Total adspend will remain the same unless approved by the client. Adspend will not be shifted across platforms.
  • Agile retainer hours are pre-approved, pre-planned billable hours and do not accrue, rollover, or otherwise transfer to other projects outside of the agreed upon SOW.

Custom Software

  • Research and discovery fees are to be paid prior to work being started.
  • Once a project proposal is approved and sprint schedule activated, billing will begin in 2 week increments.
  • If a client wishes to pause their agile billing schedule, a 1 week notice must be given to pause development and enable our team to reallocate resources accordingly.
  • If a client pauses their billing schedule, the project may be deprioritized and may require new scheduling or onboarding when the client wishes to resume again. Unused hours are not refunded due to our need to plan and allocate time to accommodate the billing schedule.

All Services

  • Revisions or scope changes will be estimated and sent to client for approval following initial project deployment.
  • No refunds are given unless we deem deliverables as not meeting client requirements. In this case we may offer a partial refund.
