These Terms & Conditions apply to your use of this website, your purchase or participation in The “Do Less” Marketing Reset, and your purchase of any freelance marketing services offered by Marketing by Megan Deaust.

By accessing this website, applying to the program, booking services, or purchasing any offer, you agree to these Terms and Conditions.

1) Definitions

  • Website: marketingbymeg.ca and any related pages, forms, and checkout experiences.

  • Program: The “Do Less” Marketing Reset (Brand Book + 12-Month Marketing Blueprint + Mastermind).

  • Services: Freelance marketing services such as SEO, website optimization, Google Ads management, website builds/refreshes, graphic design, copywriting, and ongoing marketing support.

  • Deliverables: The specific outputs described on the sales page, proposal, or statement of work (SOW).

  • Client: You, the purchaser or participant.

  • Materials: Any content you provide (logos, photos, brand notes, access to platforms, etc.).

2) Website Use

You agree not to misuse the Website, attempt unauthorized access, interfere with site security, or use the Website for unlawful purposes. We may update, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Website at any time.

3) Program Overview: The “Do Less” Marketing Reset

The Program is designed for business owners who want to reduce scattered marketing activity and build a repeatable system rooted in clear positioning, messaging, and planning.

What’s included (high level):

  • Brand Book (including founder interview, draft review session, digital copy + printed/bound copy)

  • 12-Month Marketing Blueprint (including planning session, draft review session, digital PDF)

  • Mastermind Support: 6 bi-weekly calls over 3 months

  • Spots: Limited to six participants each session

Specific inclusions are governed by the current Program sales page plus these Terms.

4) Application, Acceptance, and Fit

The Program may require an application and a fit call. Applying does not guarantee acceptance.

We reserve the right to decline applicants if we believe the Program is not a fit (for example, misalignment in expectations, capacity, or conduct).

If you are declined and you already paid, you will be refunded in full.

5) Deliverables + Scope Boundaries

A) What the Program is

The Program provides strategy, messaging clarity, planning, and group support.

B) What the Program is not

Unless explicitly included in writing, the Program does not include:

  • Done-for-you content creation (social posts, blogs, newsletters, reels, etc.)

  • Ad account setup or ongoing ad management

  • Website design/development or technical implementation

  • Ongoing analytics reporting dashboards

  • Full brand identity design (logo creation, full visual identity systems)

If you want implementation support after the Program, that is a separate engagement and may require a separate proposal/SOW.

C) Revision limits

Unless otherwise stated on the sales page or in writing:

  • Brand Book: includes one draft review session and one revision round.

  • Marketing Blueprint: includes one draft review session and one revision round.

Additional revisions or scope expansions may be quoted separately.

6) Scheduling, Calls, and Participation

Missed calls

If you miss a call, you are responsible for catching up. Missed calls are not refunded or replaced unless we explicitly agree otherwise in writing.

Conduct

We expect respectful, professional participation. We may remove any participant who is disruptive, abusive, or violates confidentiality (see Section 11). Removal does not trigger a refund.

7) Freelance Services

Freelance Services are offered separately from the Program and require a proposal, SOW, or written agreement.

Scope and change requests

Services are limited to what’s outlined in the proposal/SOW. Requests outside scope may require:

  • a revised quote,

  • Supply accurate information, assets, and approvals

We may remove participants who violate confidentiality. No refund will be issued.

12) Intellectual Property (IP)

13) AI Tools and Custom GPT Notes

We may use AI-assisted tools to support drafting, ideation, editing, workflow efficiency, and content creation. You are responsible for reviewing and verifying anything you implement, including claims, compliance, platform rules, and accuracy.

Some deliverables may include AI training notes, prompt guidance, or workflows. You acknowledge:

  • AI outputs can be imperfect and require human review.

  • You are responsible for how you use AI-generated content in your business.

  • We are not liable for platform penalties, compliance issues, or reputational impacts resulting from how you deploy AI outputs.

14) Disclaimers

Marketing involves variables we can’t control (market changes, competition, platform algorithms, your execution consistency, budget, sales process, seasonality, etc.).

We do not guarantee specific results such as revenue, leads, rankings, ROAS, or growth outcomes. We provide strategy, deliverables, and support based on best practices and your inputs.

15) Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Marketing by Megan Deaust will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost data, or business interruption.

  • violate these Terms,
