What the public pages cannot settle
A website cannot establish the quality of the team you will receive, its capacity today or your likely earnings. Published terms can change and may differ from your individual contract. A service that is not stated publicly is not necessarily unavailable.
- Ask who is assigned to the account and who covers absences.
- Define the commission base, separate costs and payout process.
- Agree which decisions require your approval and how access ends.
- Set a baseline and review date so you can assess the actual work.
