TERMS
The deal,
written down.
Everything I say on the rest of this site, in the form you can hold me to. If a line here contradicts a line on the home page, this one wins — and tell me, because it means I made a mistake.
THE SHORT VERSION
Every engagement is paid, finite and agreed in writing before work starts. Hourly engagements use the public rate of $240 per hour. The focused one-page build starts at $1,300 with a fixed project scope; the page, hours, outputs, dates, revision limit and payment schedule are written down before either of us commits. The public scan is automated and free. Human diagnosis, strategy, design, development and promotion are not.
Who you're dealing with
Landingpeak is a one-person studio. Before any paid project begins, the contracting party, scope, price, payment method and invoicing details are confirmed with the client in writing.
How scope and dates get set
There is no universal delivery promise because a two-hour session and a 32-hour site are different jobs. The written scope names the start date, target hand-off, dependencies and what counts as accepted. Your late copy, approvals, access or licensed assets move the date by the same amount of time.
If the brief changes, I stop and price the new work before doing it. Silence is not approval; a message confirming the revised scope is.
Money
- Focused one-page build: from $1,300 USD for one page with up to six sections, copy from supplied business facts and assets, original responsive design and development, one contact form, two consolidated revision rounds, agreed release checks and handover. Extra pages, full brand identity work, stores, booking systems and custom integrations require a separate quote. This is a fixed project scope; it is not calculated as one of the hourly blocks below.
- Private session: 2 hours × $240 = $480. Preparation, the session and a short written memo.
- Signal audit: 8 hours × $240 = $1,920. Evidence, priorities and an implementation map for your current site.
- Promotion cycle: 16 hours × $240 = $3,840. One four-week, defined distribution cycle; channels and outputs are named in the scope.
- Web and brand system: 32 hours minimum × $240 = $7,680+. The plus sign means extra approved hours, not a hidden package.
- Every figure is a full public starting price. There is no countdown, founding discount, score-based invoice or free human implementation. A short fit exchange can establish whether a paid engagement makes sense; it is not a strategy deliverable.
- Payment timing is written per engagement. A session and an audit are normally paid before delivery; a larger build may use milestones. Work pauses when an agreed payment is overdue.
- Third-party services, media spend, domains, hosting and taxes are separate unless the written scope says otherwise. You see those amounts before approval.
Acceptance and corrections
Acceptance means the listed outputs meet the written scope. You get the review window named there; if no window is named, it is 7 calendar days from delivery. A defect is a failure to match an agreed output or a reproducible technical break. I correct reported defects for 30 days after acceptance at no extra labour charge.
A new direction, new page, new channel, new content or a preference change is not a defect. I quote it before starting. There is no promise of unlimited revisions, free lifetime support or a result that exceeds the agreed work.
Who owns what
You do. After the final invoice for the engagement is paid, the bespoke design, code and copy produced for that engagement are yours to use. The domain and third-party licences remain subject to their own registrar or licence terms. I do not claim ownership of your customer data.
The one thing I keep is the right to show the work: screenshots and a description of what was built. If you'd rather I showed nothing, say so before we start and nothing gets shown — there is no discount attached to saying yes and no surcharge for saying no, because there is only one price either way.
What I need from you
That you have the right to everything you send me. If you hand me photographs you don't own, logos you licensed for something else, or copy lifted from a competitor, that's on you, and I'll ask before publishing anything that looks like it came from somewhere else.
What I don't promise
I do not promise rankings, AI citations, leads, revenue, conversion rates, response from a third party, or a date before the work is scoped. The scanner is a diagnostic proxy, not a model's private ranking system. What I promise is the paid work listed in the written scope, delivered with the evidence and limits stated there.
Support, and how it ends
Support, hosting, maintenance and future promotion are separate paid scopes unless the written scope explicitly includes them. The 30-day defect window above is the only included correction period. New work is quoted at the same public rate or at the rate stated in the approved scope; there is no automatic $100/month plan.
If something goes wrong between us
Message me first with the scope, invoice and evidence of the issue. If we cannot resolve it directly, the applicable law, venue and liability limits are the ones stated in the signed scope or invoice for that engagement. I am one person, not an insurer; material limitations are written before payment.
