My terms of work

  • When you book me for any mahi

    You agree to

    - pay 50% of our agreed fee up front

    - pay within 7 days unless you arrange otherwise

    When you book me for training

    Your 50% up-front payment is what confirms your training date.

    - If you cancel: no refund, no further charge

    - If you reschedule: no further charge. I’ll just invoice the other 50% after the new date

    - If I cancel: we reschedule or you get a full refund

  • If you ask about my services, I'll add you to my client list.

    You'll get emails from me.

    You can unsubscribe any time.

  • After trainings

    I email the participants

    - a link to my Resources webpage

    - a request for a Google review

    - an opportunity to sign up to my newsletter of writing tips

    I email you ideas to help you embed the training, once a week for 6 weeks.

    Don’t want me to send emails to you or the participants?

    That’s fine, but you need to tell me before the training happens.

  • To prepare and customise your training, or for writing jobs

    You're welcome to send me writing samples and internal guidance docs like style and brand guides.

    I will

    - treat them confidentially

    - store them on my computer system

    - delete them if you ask me to

    Who sees the documents

    I might show the documents to your employees during trainings. Please tell me if you don't want me to do this.

    If a data breach happens

    I will

    - tell you straight away

    - secure your information in my system as quickly as possible

    - keep communicating with you until the breach is resolved

  • If someone on an in-person workshop is visibly unwell, I might ask them to leave the workshop to prevent sickness from spreading.

    You need to have health and safety systems in place so I'm safe if I come to your workplace.

    I'll follow your health and safety procedures!
