Terms of Service
Effective October 16, 2026 | BL Sheets & Co LLC
Client Engagement Terms
These terms apply to all services provided by BL Sheets & Co LLC (“B.L. Sheets & Co.,” “we,” “us”) to its clients (“you”). If a signed engagement letter or proposal conflicts with these terms, the signed document controls.
1. Services
We provide business advisory, diagnostic, and architecture services to professional service firms, including fixed fee projects and monthly advisory engagements. The scope, deliverables, hours, and fees for each engagement are set out in your signed proposal or engagement letter.
2. Fees and payment
Fees are stated in your proposal or engagement letter. Invoices are due on receipt unless your engagement letter says otherwise. We accept payment by ACH bank transfer only, processed through Zoho Payments. We don’t accept credit or debit cards unless we agree to it in writing for a specific invoice.
3. Recurring payments
For monthly advisory engagements, you authorize us to debit the bank account you save in our client portal on the 1st of each month for the retainer amount, and on the date of purchase for any additional hour blocks or month end hourly charges described in your engagement letter. A receipt is emailed after each charge. This authorization stays in effect until your engagement ends or you revoke it in writing at least 10 days before the next scheduled charge.
4. Late or failed payments
If a payment fails or an invoice remains unpaid for more than 10 days, we may pause work until the balance is paid. You’re responsible for any bank fees caused by a returned payment.
5. Your responsibilities
You agree to provide timely access to the information, data, and people we need to perform the services, and you confirm that you have the right to share that information with us. Our timelines depend on receiving what we need when we need it.
6. Confidentiality
We’ll keep your nonpublic business information confidential and use it only to perform the services. This doesn’t apply to information that’s public, already known to us, or required to be disclosed by law. These obligations continue after the engagement ends.
7. Ownership
Once you’ve paid in full, you own the final deliverables we prepare specifically for you. We keep ownership of our own methods, frameworks, models, templates, and tools, including Revenue Intelligence and Decision Architecture (RIDA), and anything we developed before or outside your engagement. You may use any of our materials included in your deliverables for your internal business purposes.
8. No legal, tax, or audit advice
Our services are business and financial advisory services. We don’t provide legal advice, tax advice, or audit or attestation services, and nothing we deliver should be treated as such. You remain responsible for your business decisions and for consulting your own attorney, CPA, or other licensed advisor where appropriate.
9. No guarantee of results
Our recommendations are based on the information available to us and our professional judgment. We don’t guarantee any particular financial result, revenue increase, or outcome.
10. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim arising from the services is limited to the fees you paid us in the three months before the claim arose. Neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, including lost profits.
11. Termination
Either party may end a monthly advisory engagement with 30 days’ written notice. Fixed fee projects may be ended by either party with written notice, and you’ll pay for work completed through the termination date as described in our Refund Policy. We may end any engagement immediately if an invoice is more than 30 days past due.
12. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan. Any dispute will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Ottawa County, Michigan, and both parties agree to try to resolve any dispute through good faith discussion first.
13. Changes
We may update these terms from time to time. The version posted at the time you sign your proposal or engagement letter applies to that engagement unless we both agree otherwise in writing.
