1. Work by FUTURE POINT 4 BUSINESS LIMITED commences once a Proposal has been received and agreed by the client and once all content has been received from the client to include but not limited to information, copy, logo, images, video. Proposals are valid for 30 days of when the Proposal has been dispatched. Acceptance and agreement of the Proposal by the client shall be by signed Letter of Engagement. The Proposal will be specific to each design/production brief and will include expected costs and timescales for delivery of first works to final design. Any additional work required on a same production that is not in the original Proposal will require a separate and new Proposal. We notify our customers immediately if we expect a design project to take slightly longer than originally agreed. As a guide set-up costs for original graphic designs and designs for print start from £25 with a half-hourly charge at rate of £17.50 thereafter (unless a fixed price is applicable from one of our Price Guides). Full attention is given to providing our customers with a quality and efficient service. A minimum deposit of 25% is required for larger projects prior to commencement. Shorter lead times may require the initial deposit to at a higher rate. For smaller design works a written quotation will be issued that shall be valid for 14 days. Design will commence upon acceptance of the quotation by the client in writing and upon the receipt of cleared funds following settlement of an invoice raised as per the agreed quotation.

Paper proofs are charged for beginning at £9 upwards. Higher amounts will be at a percentage of the full order value.
