"One more tiny thing" ends here.
You landed the client. Then came the "one more tiny thing?", and somehow you did twice the work for the same money. These are the 15 boxes to tick between "yes" and kickoff, plus three word-for-word scripts for the moments that cost you money. Paperwork is just peace of mind, and this is the 20-minute version.

The fence that makes every project keep its shape

Where creep is born
Scope creep starts in week one, in the blurry hours right after someone says yes. This is the part nobody tells you.

The three scripts
The kickoff email, the change-order reply, and the scope line for proposals. Word for word, for the moments your heart pounds.

The 15 boxes, one page
The printable version. Tick all 15 before the real work starts. Every project, the same way.
Twice the work, same money? Never again
This is for everyone who did the extra work for free
- You have said "sure, no problem" while your stomach said otherwise.
- Your projects start fast and fuzzy, then grow sideways.
- You dread the awkward conversation more than the extra work.
- You want the next project to start clean without hiring a lawyer.
