Business Practices
Several of our clients have commented on how refreshing it is to
work with a company that has such high ethical standards. We at Eclectic
Studios have a very strong sense of fair play and ethical responsibility
to our clients, to ourselves, and to the audience. We believe in
delivering the best possible product we can in terms of design, functionality,
compatibility, usability and longevity. We want all of our clients
to be ecstatic about the quality of work and service they receive.
Ownership
All work we do is considered work for hire. Thus, all creative work
becomes the property of our client. We only ask to use the work in
our portfolio.
Estimates
The total estimated cost for a project is based on based on estimation
or the time and materials it will take to complete. Most work is
performed at a $100.00 per hour scale and our experience as to
how long each phase of the project will take.
Billing
In general, we ask our clients to pay the estimated cost of the Strategy
stage at the beginning of the project. This stage generally takes
only 1-2 weeks. During the course of the project we send monthly
invoices for the production time that has occurred up to that point.
This procedure provides our clients with the current status and
cost of the project. All invoices are Net 30.
Stage I: Strategy (Due at project start)
Stage II: Design
Stage III: Content
Stage IV: Construction
Our billing process can be adjusted to accommodate specific needs
of our clients.
