Hello,

Has anyone com across the term "Term Sheet" in reference to the graphic design process?

I was looking at a TOS from a design company and this term crops up.

Quoting …

"For each Response that the Client wants to a Creative Brief, a term sheet (a "Term Sheet") will be generated that will contain, and be subject to, the terms and conditions established by the Client for the Creative or Revision Brief, including the deadlines and any terms or conditions required by Client."

I have tried contacting the company with no luck.

Thanks

Fairly simple. Say a client wants a poster design, a smaller image for the web, and a medium sized image for a brochure. The client will specify what he/she wants from each of those, what exactly is wanted in others words to fulfil the brief given by the client. Each of those specs will be different for the different types of image/logo/design/whatever. So a Term Sheet will be produced covering the exact specification required by the client., the time scale and so forth. This has two uses:

1. It protects the design company/designer – if it isn’t on the sheet and the client wants it then it has to be an addition for which they pay extra, and if the design required fulfills the clients specs then they have no complaint if it doesn’t include something that was never agreed in the first place.

2. It protects the client because they have a spec and time scale to which they have agreed, and which allows them legal comeback if the specs/time scale aren’t fulfilled.

Hope that helps (incidentally, I got that from reading the quote above – we don’t call them term sheets in the UK).
