Contracts

I think the key to working with any composite company is negotiating the contract. Most of these companies want you to sign a two or three year contract. Unfortunately, once someone in your chapter signs the contract, you are locked in.

We have to have all of our contracts approved by someone at our Fraternity Headquarters so that they can help us read and interpret the fine print.

What I have found is that you can negotiate the contract. I was able to get a cancellation clause built into our 1 year contract that said that if we didn't have both the individual portraits of the women (the one's their parents ordered) as well as the composite for the chapter room by X date, I could cancel the contract completely.

It really held their feet to the fire, we got good service from them and they met the deadline.
