CSLM LLC PRICING POLICY
The right estimate starts with the work you need, the people needed to deliver it and the deadline you have in mind. We put those details in writing before paid work begins.
WHAT SHAPES A QUOTE
We estimate the effort and identify the right delivery approach before proposing a rate or project total.
Design, development, integrations, WordPress, IT and AI work can require different skills, research, tools and review time.
The number and type of CSLM specialists needed to deliver your project affect the estimate. Your own employee count does not automatically set the price.
A shorter deadline may require more people or reprioritized work. Expedited delivery depends on availability and is quoted before it is accepted.
THE WRITTEN ESTIMATE
Your proposal should identify the deliverables, assumptions, estimated hours or agreed project amount, staffing approach, schedule and approval milestones.
Hosting, software licenses, paid services and other third-party costs are itemized separately when applicable. If the scope changes, we discuss the effect on cost and timing and seek approval before proceeding.
