Frequently asked questions

Is a PPC management proposal legally binding?

A proposal is a pre-sale document. Once the client signs it or a follow-on service agreement, that written acceptance is generally enforceable. ContractMaker is a document tool, not legal advice. For large ad spend accounts, have a lawyer review the service terms.

Should I separate the setup fee from the monthly management fee?

Yes. Clients compare monthly costs closely, so showing the one-time setup fee as its own line item prevents sticker shock and keeps the ongoing rate easy to evaluate. Use the pricing options field to break them apart clearly.

Is the document ready to send?

Yes. You get a clean, formatted document you can download, print, and send right away. No watermark, no signup.

Do I need a lawyer?

ContractMaker is a document tool, not legal advice. The base templates are vetted and openly licensed, but for high-stakes or unusual situations you should have a lawyer review your final document.

Is it really free?

Yes. Every document is free to generate and download, with no watermark and no signup. Fill the fields, download the file, and send it.

Can I edit the wording?

You control every field, so the scope, payment terms, and clauses always match how you work.
