Budget

If you don't have a specific budget specified at this time, you may leave this section blank and decide upon submission of the first proposal(s) what your budget is. Upon review of the proposal(s), you must be very clear that either the estimates are acceptible, or fit within your budget, -or- you have decided on a lesser budget and need another proposal with fewer services.

This budget amount must be realistic. If the services you request result in charges that are more than your specified budget, two proposals will be provided: One covering services that will fit within your budget, and a second with all your requested services and the required budget for those services. The two proposals will be provided for comparison, and to be used for presentation to third-parties for approval if additional budgeting is necessary.

Important: Every effort will be made to accomodate a realistic budget, but if your budget is severely limited and inflexible, this must be communicated from the start so as to avoid both parties investing a lot of time in the proposal and approval process for services or a project that cannot be produced for the amount.

I have a specific budget for this project     Amount or Limit $
My budget is flexible if required by the project needs   I am "locked" into this amount with no flexibility
