Why This Policy Exists
Our business model requires upfront commitment from both parties:
- Resource Allocation: When you book with us, we reserve scheduling priority and turn down other clients
- Time Investment: Our researchers and writers dedicate hours before you see any deliverable
- Expertise Value: You are paying for decades of experience and peer-reviewed methodology, not just output
This policy ensures we can continue providing high-quality, research-backed services at competitive rates.
Exceptions
There are limited exceptions to this policy:
- Retainer packages (eg, Growth/Authority): There is a 14-day cancellation window for retainer packages per Terms and Conditions Section 4.2.
All other circumstances listed above remain non-refundable:
- Change of mind
- Life circumstances (illness, emergency, etc.)
- Disappointment with results
- Financial hardship
We understand these situations occur. Although we cannot offer refunds, we are happy to discuss payment plans, pauses, or restructuring options where feasible.
