Chip Kennedy: Working Together

Hello 👋

Since we’re considering working together, this page is a breakdown of my services, a template contract, and what past clients have to say about my work. As always, you can contact me with questions, specific needs, or ideas for us to talk through!

Everything below is also the starting point I use for setting the cost and scope of engagements. When you’re ready, and if we both agree I can help, I'll send over a detailed agreement for us to discuss and sign.

- Chip Kennedy

My goals:

📐Charge for Deliverables - I want you to pay for agreed upon deliverables, whenever possible. If you’re paying an hourly rate, you can expect transparent and detailed breakdowns of what work you are paying for.

🔍 Be Transparent - I'll do my part to keep you well informed of any needed changes to our contract, the cause, and your choice of remedies.

♻️ Reduce Scope - Startups, by definition, need to think big and start small. My job is to help you do this, and I'll point out opportunities to reduce project scope and build lean whenever I see them.

Example deliverables:
