Account Holds
ACCOUNT HOLD REQUEST (Action Required)
We understand things come up and we’d like to do what we can to help. You have the option to put your automatically recurring monthly or paid in full account on hold for any reason.
Assuming that THIS IS NOT A TERMINATION REQUEST, you may put your account on hold in 30-60 day increments. Account Hold requests are limited to one time per calendar year.
During this temporary hold, all activities and operations associated with your account will also be temporarily discontinued. This may include but not be limited to: meetings, strategy sessions, business development follow ups, social media postings and the like.
The email address and password to the client portal on a temporarily deactivated account will be available for use up to 60 days after the account has been on hold. Within those 60 days, the information remains tied to the account to allow for reactivation.
You can place an account hold request via email by selecting the "Request Hold" button above. As mentioned, any hold request must be submitted at least five business days in advance of the next due payment noting the first day you want your account placed on hold. Tip: For quicker service, try calling the local phone number of the account manages that handles your account
REACTIVATION (ACTION REQUIRED)
Once you are ready to reactivate your account, the account owner must contact us to reactivate it.
After 60 days of inactivity, the account will be considered terminated and should you choose to reactivate your account, rates in effect at the time of reactivation will be applicable (marketing and branding rates are subject to change). When you reactivate, you can choose from currently available programs and add-ons.
Please note that this temporary hold will not relieve the Client, of its obligations to pay for any Services that have already been performed and/or executed. If a client fails to bring their account current within the 60 days, the account will be recategorized as a nonpayment suspension and they will be ineligible for expansion, extension, or reactivation for that account.

Important details

Payment Terms
Client shall pay PBG in accordance with the services PBG provides. Management and Consulting Fees shall be billed in advance and shall be deemed earned once services have been rendered (unless payment associated with these services are included in the initial deposit which is non-refundable). Client shall pay PBG 50% (fifty percent) of PBG’S initial quote for services as a retainer for PBG’s services with the 2nd 50% (fifty percent) being due prior to rendering services for the remaining hours. For projects with multiple phases the same payment terms will apply to each phase. This means that phase one (1) would require a deposit and balance as would phase two (2) and so on. Pierre Branding Group will invoice Client at the time of the signed contract agreement which will act as the deposit. The remaining balances will be billed at the middle of each phase. Any balances are due upon receipt.
You agree to pay our initial (1st) invoice upon receipt which will act as a deposit for the project. Every invoice after that will have 14 day payment terms. In the event payment is not made within 14 days, Pierre Branding Group will charge a late payment fee of 1% per month on any overdue and unpaid balance not in dispute, to cover the manpower, interest, and other costs PBG pays for carrying overdue invoices from Client. In addition, PBG reserves the right to stop work until payment is received.
Payment for Services Rendered
We deliver a branding strategy, advice and guidance.
Once services have commenced, You’ll have two or more weekly opportunities to review our work and provide feedback. If, at any stage during the working relationship, you’re not able to continue and keep the project moving forward with the branding program and/or strategy for any reason, you will pay us in full for everything we’ve produced up to that that point and then cancel this contract.
If upon termination there exist any materials furnished by us or any services performed by us for which you have not paid us in full, until such time as you have paid us in full you agree not to use any such materials, in whole or in part, or the product of such services.

However, you agree to reimburse us for all costs and expenses we incurred prior to your change in instructions, and which relate to non-cancelable commitments, and to defend, indemnify and hold us harmless for any liability relating to such action. We agree to use our best efforts to minimize such costs and expenses.

PBG CLIENT SELECTION PROCESS
About our client and engagement selection process
We want to give each of you the time and guidance you deserve. That's also why when it comes to client selection, we’re choosy.
Candidates for PBG Membership are exclusively nominated and referred by existing PBG Members, Friends and Family. Nominations are initiated, written and completed by the member who acts as the proposer by completing an online nomination form for the proposed candidate. The initiative to nominate a candidate for PBG Membership was put in place because we want to give each of you the time and guidance you deserve.
As we seek to create and foster a positive, productive and safe environment in our company culture, we are committed to the values on which our firm was founded. This includes having a formal process in place for the acceptance and continuation of clients. For this reason, we regularly evaluate and update our customer journey, including the client selection process, determining which clients we serve and in what industries, ensuring we systematically identify and manage risk before committing to a client or a project.
In addition, not accepting a potential new client will often be based on current workload, location and competition. Selecting the “right” client at the outset is essential to the firm’s success, as well as for staff satisfaction and retention.
Under our Client Service Policy, our firm must affirmatively approve service to new clients. Such approval is based on the results of client diligence performed by a mix of internal staff and outside experts. Criteria for selecting new clients can include being in business for a period of time (e.g. 3 years), owner-managers that are open to advice and pleasant to deal with and a clear opportunity for the firm to add value to the business via forward looking services.
Our process ensures that we take a consistent, holistic approach to evaluating the clients we serve and the likely impact of our work to determine if it meets the high expectations and ethical standards held by our colleagues, clients and other external stakeholders. Among other criteria, it requires us to consider the unintended consequences of any proposed work, including potential negative impact to individuals, partners, colleagues, and affiliates.
Our Client Service Policy also includes bright-line rules for work we will not perform. For example, we will not take on High-risk projects which are projects that are highly visible, have a sweeping impact inside and outside the organization and pose significant threats to the project team's ability to deliver.
As project managers and consultants, we utilize tools & methods for identifying, analyzing and monitoring project risk. These tools generally involve conducting a feasibility study, anchored in the principles of project risk management and is highly effective in managing stakeholder expectations, developing early warning systems and setting contingency budgets and plans. To mitigate risk, we often rely on traditional project control methods, contingency planning and risk transference. For the majority of our projects, these proven methods instill the vision, confidence and courage to deliver. This framework is embedded in the way we assess risk for all our client work. It applies globally, across all sectors, whether work is formal or informal, paid or unpaid.
We also have policies and guidelines in place for specific areas of our client work; for example, an enhanced set of rules govern our work for public, social, and state-linked sector (PSSS) clients. These rules ensure that our work for PSSS clients is rigorously risk reviewed, with consideration to such matters as the impact and value for money of our work and our contracting arrangements.
