PRICING POLICY
We believe in clear communication and transparency from day one. To ensure project continuity and timely delivery, we have established the following payment structures tailored to our core services.
Social Media Retainers
Retainer engagements require 50% of the first month’s retainer upfront to initiate work.
At the end of each month, an invoice will be issued covering:
The remaining 50% of the previous month’s retainer, and
50% upfront for the upcoming month
Work commencement and continuation are strictly tied to payment receipts.
Any delay in payment may impact timelines, delivery, or continuity of services.
If we handle the advertising payments, the entire advertising budget must be provided in advance. A Procesing Fee and other Ad Commissions will be charged accordingly.
One-Time Marketing Campaigns
For specific, short-term promotional campaigns (e.g., product launches, seasonal promos, or event-based marketing), our policy ensures all resources are secured for a high-impact execution.
70% upfront payment is required to begin strategy development, creative asset production, and campaign setup.
The remaining 30% balance must be settled within 7 days of the campaign’s conclusion.
For more comprehensive marketing efforts beyonds 14 days, Blue Whale Media will provide a customized, milestone-based payment proposal.
Regardless of campaign length, 100% of the advertising budget (ad spend) must be provided in advance if managed by Blue Whale Media.
Short-Form Video Projects
Video production involves significant resources in planning and post-production. Our video engagement policy ensures a smooth creative process.
Video engagements require 60% upfront to initiate planning and production.
The remaining 40% must be settled before final delivery of the completed video assets.
Production, editing, and final delivery are strictly tied to payment receipts.
Any delay in payment may impact shoot schedules, editing timelines, or final delivery.
Website Development Projects
Building a high-performing website requires careful planning and execution. Our project-based payment structure is milestone-driven:
Website development projects require 60% upfront to initiate discovery, design, and development.
The remaining 40% is payable in two stages, aligned to agreed milestones:
20% upon completion of the first agreed milestone
20% upon completion of the second agreed milestone, prior to final handover / go-live
Development progress, testing, and deployment are strictly tied to payment receipts.
Any delay in payment may impact timelines, delivery, or go-live schedules.
We appreciate your trust in Blue Whale Media. These policies are in place to ensure we can dedicate our full focus and resources to delivering exceptional results for your brand. Thank you for your partnership and understanding.
