Shears Virtual Advantage’s #1 priority is Customer Satisfaction. Therefore, I offer affordable offsite administrative support to your business, while nurturing a partnership with you. My rates are based on either a per project or a retainer contract basis.

Per Project Pricing (Hourly): If you need help for just a few hours a week or a few hours a month, then this plan would be right for you. An exact charge will be determined when all the details of a project are known. You only pay for the time and materials spent on your project. There is not a minimum time commitment on the part of the client however; there is a minimum charge of one (1) hour per invoice.

Retainer: This program offers a discount to Clients who want and/or need my services on a regular basis. I offer the following plans:

10 hours per month = (5% discount)
20 hours per month = (10% discount)
40 hours per month = (15% discount)

Retainers are a month-to-month contract with payment for the following month being paid to Shears Virtual Advantage by the 30th of the previous month to allow for scheduling purposes. (For example – invoice is sent out on April 15. Payment must be made by April 30 in order for May work to begin.) Client may cancel this agreement with twenty (20) days notice to Shears Virtual Advantage.

Additional expenses: Occasionally when working on a project I incur expenses, on the client’s behalf, that will be billed at cost and added to your monthly invoice. Examples of these expenses would include copies, specialty paper, postage and courier services. Note: Normal office supplies and equipment are the responsibility of Shears Virtual Advantage and will not be billed to the client.

Payment policy:

• Shears Virtual Advantage requires a deposit of fifty percent (50%) from new clients, with the amount being paid prior to work beginning. This amount will be based on the estimated number of hours quoted to client for any project. Payment may be made by Pay Pal or by check or money order made payable to Shears Virtual Advantage. Note: Work will not be started for clients paying by paper check until funds have cleared the bank.
• Completed work will not be sent to client until full payment is received and funds have cleared the bank. Client will be charged a $40 fee for all returned NSF checks.
• Final proofing is the responsibility of the client.

Coupons:

All new clients will receive 15% off from their first month's total bill.

If a client refers someone and they become a retainer client, referring client will receive 1 hour of free services from Shears Virtual Advantage.
