Common questions from agencies
- Should my agency use a master service agreement or per-project contracts?
- Most agencies benefit from a master service agreement (MSA) that covers general terms, supplemented by project-specific statements of work (SOWs). The MSA handles payment terms, IP, confidentiality, and liability once — then each SOW defines scope and deliverables for individual projects.
- How do I protect my agency from scope creep?
- Define deliverables precisely in the contract, include a formal change order process, and specify that out-of-scope requests require written agreement and additional fees. Our templates include change management clauses that make scope boundaries clear from day one.
- Who owns the creative work — the agency or the client?
- This must be explicitly addressed in your contract. Common approaches: full IP transfer on final payment, license grant (agency retains ownership, client gets usage rights), or hybrid models. Our templates let you choose the IP arrangement that fits your agency model.
- Do I need a separate NDA for every client pitch?
- It's best practice, especially for competitive pitches. An NDA protects both parties — the client's business information and your creative concepts. A standard mutual NDA can be reused across pitches with minimal customization.
- How should I structure payment terms for agency work?
- Common structures: 50/50 (half upfront, half on delivery), milestone-based (tied to deliverables), or monthly retainer. Always include late payment penalties and specify when payment is due (net-15 or net-30 are standard). Our templates support all these models.
