Service agreement for Designers & creatives

A designer without a contract ends up with a client who assumes unlimited revisions are included and that all source files are theirs by default. A service agreement clearly defines what is included, how many revisions are covered, and who owns the finished work. zipzipdoc generates it in 60 seconds — the client signs before the first iteration begins.
