The client supplies the privacy copy
Copy for double opt-in and the privacy policy are legal services. The client supplies it, you embed it – that protects you both.
Document the test send
Test every setup with a real send to several addresses, e.g. Gmail, Outlook and Apple Mail. The documented test send is your proof of completion.
The client covers tool costs
Tool licence, list fees, sending domain: the client pays the provider directly. That settles what continues once the collaboration ends.
Frequently asked questions
Who writes the copy?
Clarify that upfront – copy can be added as its own milestone.
What counts as finished?
A successful test run of the sequence – easy to verify.
Why Stipme instead of an invoice?
Your client reserves the budget for each milestone in advance with the payment partner Stripe. You start with security, and they only pay on approval — automatically after 72 hours (excluding weekends).
