Lisa,
I recently implemented a policy which essentially forces a client to sign
off on the website at each stage of the development. I am thrilled to
report that it WORKS! Once a phase is completed the client reviews the
site, approves it and faxes me a signed approval document which I provide
before I continue with work. The document alerts the client that further
changes regarding this portion of the website will be billed at our hourly
rate. It has two benefits:
1) The client seriously reviews that phase of the project.
2) The client understands that he/she/they will be billed at an hourly
rate for any other "fixes" or "changes" to that phase of the website.
By nature a website is a living thing. It grows and changes (or it
should). It has been difficult in the past for me to shut-down that growth
during the development process without discouraging the client. The
sign-off lets them know that other changes will need to be made, but in a
later "phase" of the development.
Good Luck,
Jeanne
