GPBS bills in 15-minute increments with a one-hour minimum charge. An amount equal to 30 percent of the estimated cost of each project is due before work begins and is payable by personal check, business check, bank check or money order. The balance is due when the work is completed.
Monthly retainers are due by the first of the month for work to be performed that month. Because GPBS guarantees a specified number of hours for monthly clients, unused hours are not refundable and are not carried forward to the following month.
GPBS bills for all necessary, out-of-pocket expenses (such as postage and printing) to complete your project. These expenses will be shown as separate items on your invoice.
GPBS reserves the right to schedule all work. Company working hours are 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. (ET) Monday through Thursday, and 8 a.m. to noon (ET) on Friday (excluding U.S. holidays). If the client requests work that must be performed outside regular working hours or on U.S. holidays, GPBS will bill the client at the regular rate plus 30 percent.
