SERVICE AGREEMENT

CONTACT

(a) STX Consulting's hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm, excluding holidays.

(b) During onboarding, the Client will be assigned a Brand Manager that is best suited to their business needs. The Brand Manager's role is to be the day to day contact with the Client. The Client may discuss strategy, preferences, ask questions, or any address the Brand Manager with any other need related to their social media or marketing accounts. The Client is not to discuss compensation, additional services, or any other topic not directly needed for managing the agreed-upon services in this agreement.

(c) Any communication with the Brand Manager should also include Scott Cox. Scott may not be actively involved in every detailed conversation for the day to day management of the Client's accounts. However, Scott can be contacted anytime during business hours at the Client's discretion for any need they have. Scott's primary role will be to maintain or update the ongoing, overall strategy and to support the Brand Manager and Client in reaching the set goals of this agreement.
