The way billing works: In the beginning we estimate the amount of time needed for a specific project. Before the project begins we require 50% payment and the remainder, along with any overtime, is due upon completion. We also charge for travel under 200 miles on an hourly basis in one direction. Over 200 miles the client must pay for airfare and any overnight expenses. We do require a contract prior to beginning any work excluding the initial consultation.
