Commissions. All expenses fronted by MarCom Guru garner a standard 18% ante, including unique-to-client resources, production costs, outsourced services, and similar small investments.
This agency negotiates, but does not finance, clients' advertising space and other major investments. Clients are required to maintain their own media & vendor accounts.
Invoices are mailed on the first business day of each month for the previous month's services. Payment terms are net 30; late payments amass 10% fees compounded monthly.
Discounts. MarCom Guru offers a limited 5% discount on web development services, in exchange for active "Developed by MarCom Guru®" hyperlinks. The links must be exhibited visibly at the bottom edge of each active page, for the minimum duration of one year following go-live date.
MarCom Guru offers a limited 5% referral discount. Should any contracted client refer another business, who then signs its own retainer contract with MarCom Guru, the referring client will receive 5% discounts on his/her current contract's remaining billing cycles. Limit two referral bonuses per client per contract.
Because MarCom Guru offers extremely competitive service pricing, i.e. "every day low prices," no other service discount or commission reduction may be proposed. Contact us to learn about our special opportunity for promising start-ups.
Copyrights. MarCom Guru holds the copyrights to all creative work produced by the agency and its employees.
Once any client's final contract is fulfilled and all invoices are fully paid, copyrights are transferred to that client with optional digital copies of archives. This is an uncommon agency service, yet we recognize that our clients may grow to perform their own marketing functions, and we applaud them.
However, please note: MarCom Guru reserves the right to display examples of copyrighted work in original form, including brand identities and product/character photography, in self-promotional endeavors and published literary works (e.g. books) of the agency or its employees/partners. Reproduction of effective examples created in collaboration with MarCom Guru is highly probable.
Cancellations. Contracts may be ended early only in the case of service package upgrades. Contracts will automatically renew unless client cancels MarCom Guru's service in writing in advance of the auto-renewal date. MarCom Guru will protect its interests to the full extent of the law.
Code of ethics. The MarCom Guru agency and its employees will not support or participate in clients' questionable, unethical or illegal business practices.
