Consult with your attorney before signing a contractAngel asks:

I’m in the process of confirming a deal with a local hotel in providing baskets for their VIP guests.

Do you advise a contract because the number of baskets may change from time to time?

I would like to consider them my corporate client. Please share your suggestions and comments. Thank you very much.

It’s critical that all agreements, specifically for multiple baskets or components, are sealed with a contract whether your order is with a hotel, retail store, or private firm.

Because you’re working with a hotel, this status automatically puts them into the corporate client category.

I once worked with a woman who was in charge of the entire head start program in my city. The quantity of her orders, all made for friends and family members, also placed her into corporate status because of volume and not because of her profession.

Another designer asked about contracts. You’ll find my response here.

It’s wise to consult an attorney to make sure your contract favors you in all conditions. You’ll also find contract samples in books and online, but investing in an attorney’s counsel will let you sleep at night.
