04
PROJECT TURNAROUND TIMEFRAME:
Note that the turnaround of ALL projects begins the next business day following the completion of our “Client Intake Form” and submission of all other information required to complete the design.
​
Each project has a different turn around timeframe. Please refer to the page of the product and read the details to get proper turn around timeframe.
​
The turnaround time for design revisions is NOT included in the base turnaround; revisions take an additional 2-3 BUSINESS DAYS. For this reason we recommend that clients are specific and direct in their approach when citing their revisions. Turnaround time frames may be extended/delayed due to personal/ business emergencies, illness, theft, computer/tech failure, Acts of God, worldly emergencies, or other crises. No finalized artwork files will be delivered until balance is paid in full.
05
REFUNDS AND CANCELLATIONS:
Due to the nature of the services offered we do not provide refunds. ALL SALES ARE FINAL. ALL PAYMENTS/DEPOSITS MADE ARE NON-REFUNDABLE. Once a payment has been made, the sale is final. If by chance you choose to cancel your order, then it becomes forfeited by the client, the design process will come to a stop, and your order will be sent as is. At no time will anything be reimbursed. If there is an issue that arises on Armani Smith Creative Studio's end, a decision on a refund will be at our discretion. If any fraud disputes are filed for fulfilled orders it will be handled by our attorney.
06
DRAFTS AND REVISIONS:
Armani Smith's Creative Studio has a THREE revision limit per project. If the client is not satisfied after the three revisions, client will be charged a minimum $10 fee per additional revision the client requests. Revisions include, but are not limited to, fonts, color, sizing, and layout. The turnaround time for design revisions is NOT included in the base turnaround; revisions take an additional 2-3 BUSINESS DAYS. Work includes only the final, deliverable art, and not any preliminary work or sketches. All draft work is property of Armani Smith Creative Studio and may not be used in any format.
07
CLIENT COMMUNICATION:
During the design process it is important for the client to understand that the designer works best in a non disturbance atmosphere. You will recieve your first preview on the business day in which your order is due. There WILL NOT be any constant contact during the duration of the design process. This eliminates slowing down on orders and allows us to meet all turnaround times. If at any time you have questions about this feel free to contact us. All messages are responded to within 48 business hours, however at peak times, responses can be delayed.
08
GHOST CLAUSE:
If the client does not complete our “Client Intake Form” and submit all other information required to complete the design within 30 BUSINESS DAYS, then the order will be terminated and will result in a $50 restart fee. If a design is purchased and worked on and the client does not finalize designs within 30 BUSINESS DAYS after being sent, there will be a $50 restart fee.
09
FINAL FILES DELIVERY:
Design files are sent over in formats ranging between pdf, png, and jpg. Photoshop PSD files are available upon request for an additional fee. Once final designs are sent, there will be an additional $30 fee for us to go in and make any additional adjustments.
10
HAVING A VISION:
We 100% recommend waiting until you have all the details for your design before booking; it makes the process flow and eradicates extra revisions. We can help guide you but it is imperative to always have a vision for anything that you are branding. Designers can not read your mind or freestyle repeatedly because that will result in visions not being met and multiple revisions. Please be sure that your vision is clear before any purchase is made. Even a small vision will be good to work with.
11
TERMINATION:
If by chance your order is terminated it is because of wrong doing on your part. It is disrespectful to treat anyone, especially a creative in a rude manner. Whether it's by disrespect, not respecting the time of the designer, or not turning in needed information timely, overall that is not fair to Armani Smith Creative Agency or our other clients.
