Endless revisions turn a good deal into a bad one. The fix is in the contract: a set number of rounds, a clear definition, and a price for more.
Agree this before you start
- How many rounds are included. One or two is typical; set your own and stick to it.
- What a revision is: changes to your draft based on the brief, not a new concept, a new script or a reshoot.
- Feedback in one batch per round, from one contact.
- An approval deadline: e.g. feedback within 3 working days, or the draft is treated as approved.
- The price of an extra round, written down in advance.
When they ask for round three
Stay friendly and specific: "Happy to make these changes. Our agreement includes two rounds, so this one is an extra round at [price]. Shall I go ahead?"
A changed brief after approval is a new piece of work, and should be quoted as one.
