Making things.
WHERE IT HELPS
Descriptions of finished pieces Quotations from your costs Custom order confirmations Care and assembly instructions Content from work you completed
FOR CUSTOM ORDERS
"Write a confirmation of this custom order: [dimensions, materials, finish, price, timescale]. State that changes after this point may affect price and delivery."
Custom work disputes involve something not specified.
FOR DESCRIPTIONS
Dimensions, materials, finish, what is included, delivery and assembly.
Never generated dimensions.
FOR CARE INSTRUCTIONS
"Write care instructions for [material and finish], plain language, for a customer to keep."
FOR DELIVERY AND ASSEMBLY
State clearly whether it is included, and what access is required.
Failed deliveries because a piece would not fit through a door are avoidable with a written question beforehand.
FOR CONTENT
Photograph the process, not only the finished piece. Process is more interesting.
