Scope Change Request Form
A comprehensive set of terms and conditions for a copywriting business — covering quotations, fees, delivery, revisions and late payment.
About this resource
This template gives you a solid foundation of business terms to underpin your client work. It sets out how you quote, charge, deliver and revise work, and how issues like late payment and ownership are handled, so both sides know the rules from the start.
Written in plain English with bracketed placeholders, it's designed to sit alongside project-specific contracts, which take precedence where they conflict.
What's included
- Quotation and acceptance terms, including retainers
- Fees, payment terms, methods and late-payment provisions
- Project delivery, briefs and timelines
- Subcontracting provisions
- Revisions terms
- Adaptable placeholders throughout
How to use it
Replace the bracketed placeholders with your own details and preferred terms — payment percentages, timescales and delivery formats — and delete any options that don't apply. Publish or share them so clients agree to them when commissioning work.
For significant or high-value engagements, we recommend having your terms reviewed by a legal professional, and using a project-specific contract where more detail is needed.
