A quote or proposal is valid only for the period stated in the quote or proposal. If no period is stated, CloseLoop may update or withdraw the quote at any time before payment is made or work begins.
5. Deposits and Payment Terms
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, CloseLoop requires a 50% upfront deposit before beginning work.
The remaining balance, monthly fees, third-party costs, platform fees, usage fees, or other charges will be billed according to the applicable quote, proposal, invoice, or service arrangement.
Clients agree to pay all invoices on time.
CloseLoop may use Stripe or another payment processor to process payments. Clients are responsible for ensuring payment information is accurate and up to date.

7. Month-to-Month Services and Cancellation
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, CloseLoop services are month-to-month and may be cancelled with 14 days’ notice.
Cancellation notice must be provided in writing by email or another written method accepted by CloseLoop.
Cancellation does not remove the client’s responsibility to pay:
- Outstanding invoices
- Work already completed
- Approved work in progress
- Platform fees already incurred
- Third-party fees already incurred
- Usage fees already incurred
- Monthly fees for billing periods that have already started
- Transfer, export, or administrative fees, where applicable

8. 90-Day Ramp-Up Period and Performance Commitment
CloseLoop’s purpose is to help clients create better marketing systems, improve follow-up, strengthen their online presence, and create more revenue opportunities.
Marketing, SEO, automation, reputation growth, lead generation, website improvement, and business growth often require time to gather data, test, adjust, and improve. For that reason, CloseLoop uses a 90-day ramp-up period as a reasonable initial period for implementation, testing, and optimization.
After the 90-day ramp-up period, if a client does not believe CloseLoop is helping move their business toward better systems, stronger follow-up, improved visibility, more opportunities, or a clearer return on investment, the client may cancel according to the cancellation policy in these Terms.
This performance commitment is not a promise of specific financial results. It is a commitment to strategic execution, measurable improvement where reasonably possible, transparent communication, and revenue-focused marketing systems.
9. No Guaranteed Results
CloseLoop does not guarantee specific revenue amounts, lead volume, rankings, calls, traffic, reviews, sales, conversion rates, customer behaviour, or business outcomes.
Results depend on many factors outside CloseLoop’s control, including:
- Market conditions
- Competition
- Business location
- Offer strength
- Pricing
- Client reputation
- Reviews
- Customer experience
- Sales process
- Staff follow-up
- Response times
- Product or service quality
- Seasonality
- Advertising budget
- Google or platform algorithm changes
- Third-party platform performance
- Client cooperation
- Industry conditions
- Economic conditions
CloseLoop will work to provide professional services, strategic recommendations, technical implementation, and ongoing support as agreed, but no marketing service can guarantee exact outcomes.
10. SEO Disclaimer
SEO is a long-term process.
CloseLoop does not guarantee specific search rankings, traffic levels, leads, calls, sales, map pack placement, Google Business Profile placement, or timeline for results.
Search engines and platforms may change their algorithms, ranking systems, policies, layouts, or indexing behaviour at any time. These changes are outside CloseLoop’s control.
11. Google Business Profile Services
If CloseLoop manages or assists with a Google Business Profile, the client remains responsible for ensuring that all business information is accurate, lawful, truthful, and compliant with applicable rules.
The client is responsible for:
- Correct business name
- Correct address or service area
- Correct phone number
- Accurate website URL
- Accurate services
- Accurate business hours
- Proper licensing
- Truthful claims
- Appropriate photos
- Lawful review practices
- Compliance with Google’s policies

CloseLoop is not responsible for suspensions, removals, ranking changes, profile restrictions, review removals, or other actions taken by Google or other third-party platforms.
12. AI Tools and Automations
CloseLoop may use AI-generated content, AI chatbots, AI voice bots, AI appointment setters, AI-assisted copywriting, AI-assisted strategy, AI-assisted workflows, and other automation tools.
AI tools may produce errors, incomplete responses, inaccurate statements, unexpected outputs, or responses that require human review.
The client is responsible for reviewing and approving AI-assisted content, workflows, automations, messages, scripts, website copy, chatbot responses, voice bot responses, and customer-facing communications before relying on them.
CloseLoop is not responsible for damages caused by the client’s failure to review, test, monitor, or approve AI-assisted systems.
CloseLoop may recommend testing, review, or monitoring procedures. The client agrees that AI and automation tools should not be treated as perfect, error-free, or fully autonomous replacements for human judgment.
13. Email, SMS, Calls, and Marketing Communications
CloseLoop may help set up email, SMS, call, review request, reminder, reactivation, newsletter, or follow-up systems.
The client is responsible for ensuring that any contacts, leads, subscribers, customer lists, phone numbers, email addresses, or imported databases provided to CloseLoop were collected lawfully and may be used for the intended communication.
The client is responsible for complying with applicable communication laws, including consent, identification, unsubscribe, opt-out, recordkeeping, and industry-specific requirements.
CloseLoop may provide technical setup, templates, workflows, or recommendations, but the client remains responsible for legal approval of their own marketing communications and contact lists.
CloseLoop only messages users who directly opt in through our website forms or customer intake process. We do not buy, sell, share, or message third-party leads. Messages include appointment reminders, customer support, service follow-up, and requested business communications. Users can opt out anytime by replying STOP or get help by replying HELP.

15. Client Approvals
Clients must review and approve website content, designs, copy, automations, AI scripts, workflows, campaigns, and other deliverables before launch or use where approval is requested.
Once the client approves a deliverable, CloseLoop may rely on that approval.
CloseLoop is not responsible for errors, omissions, claims, compliance issues, typos, pricing errors, outdated information, or misleading statements that the client approved or failed to correct during review.
16. Revisions
Revision limits depend on the package, proposal, or service agreement.
Unless otherwise stated in writing, CloseLoop will provide reasonable revisions during the active build or service period.
Revisions do not include unlimited redesigns, complete changes in direction, new pages, new features, new integrations, new branding, new strategy, or expanded scope unless agreed in writing.

The client is responsible for ensuring that any contact data provided to CloseLoop was collected lawfully and can be used for the intended purpose.
25. Phone Numbers, Email, SMS, and Communication Systems
Phone numbers, email sending systems, SMS systems, tracking numbers, and related communication tools may be provided through third-party platforms or CloseLoop-managed accounts.
