If you are a freelance writer, creator, marketer, publicist, consultant, plumber, accountant… or any other kind of service provider and we have not yet provided a services agreement for your specific business or industry, then this general client services agreement is what you need to clearly define the boundaries and expectations for your relationship with your clients. A Client services agreement is a binding, legal document that defines the relationship between a service provider and service consumer or client. It should state certain basic terms like the scope of work to be provided, the timing and delivery of service and payment expectations for clients.
Clients are also more likely to pay if they’ve signed an agreement stating that they would. This is reason enough to grab this template right now. #yourewelcome.
