What This Agreement Helps You Do
Not legal advice — just a practical starting point to stop running your business on “vibes.”
Spell out what you do (and don’t do) on a typical service so clients don’t assume you’re also their housekeeper, nanny, and event planner.
Lay out service fees, deposits, due dates, and how payments are made — before money becomes an awkward topic.
Policies for cancellations, last-minute changes, and rescheduling so your income doesn’t vanish when clients “forget” about your time.
