1. Who We Are
Ad Snipper is a talent outsourcing and white-labeling company. We place trained specialists, virtual assistants, marketers, creative associates, and AI/ML and development talent with businesses and agencies around the world.
Our office is at 770 Market St, Farmington, MO. When this document says “Ad Snipper,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” that’s who we mean. When it says “you” or “Client,” that’s you, the business hiring talent through us.
By engaging our services, signing our agreement, or sending a deposit, you accept these terms.
2. What We Provide
We provide trained talent on a part-time or full-time basis, billed by the hour and invoiced bi-weekly. The specific role, hours, and rate are spelled out in your individual service agreement.
Every placement comes with:
- A dedicated account manager
- Time tracked through software you can audit
- Free replacement if a placement isn’t working out
- No hidden fees. The hourly rate covers tools, training, and management
We do not sell finished marketing campaigns, finished code, or guaranteed outcomes. We sell skilled human hours. What that talent produces depends on the systems, briefs, and direction you provide.
3. Your Role as Client
The talent we place works inside your business. That means a few things are on your side of the line:
- Provide your SOPs, KPIs, goals, and expectations in writing
- Give clear briefs and timely feedback
- Approve any overtime in advance (us, you, and the associate all need to agree before extra hours are billed)
- Honor confidentiality going both ways
If something isn’t working, tell us early. We can replace the associate or adjust the scope. We can’t fix what we don’t know about.
4. Billing and Payment
Here’s how money moves:
Invoicing cadence. Bi-weekly. Invoices land in your inbox and are due upon receipt.
Payment methods. Bank transfer, Stripe, or whatever method is specified in your agreement.
Late payments. If an invoice goes unpaid past its due date, we will pause the associate’s work until the account is current. We don’t want to do this. We will if we have to.
Deposits. Any deposit paid at the start of a project is forfeited if you cancel before the agreed cycle ends.
Currency. All prices are in USD unless your agreement states otherwise.
Discounts. Volume discounts (multiple associates) and commitment discounts (3+ months) apply as quoted at the time of signing. They don’t apply retroactively.
5. How Hours Work
When you hire a part-time associate, you’re buying 20 hours per week. Full-time is 40 hours per week. Your agreement spells out which you signed up for.
A few things worth being upfront about:
Hours don’t roll over. If you book 20 hours a week and only use 15, the remaining 5 hours are gone at the end of that week. They do not carry forward to the next week, the next month, or any future billing cycle. You’re paying for a reserved block of someone’s working time, not a prepaid hour bank.
This works the same way an employee’s salary works. A salaried employee who only had 30 hours of work this week doesn’t get to “save” the missing 10 hours and take them off next month. The reservation of their time is what you’re paying for.
Why we do it this way. When we place an associate with you, we block out their working hours for your account. We can’t sell those hours to another client, even if you don’t use them on a given week. So those hours have a cost on our side whether you use them or not.
How to get your money’s worth. Plan ahead. Give your associate enough work to fill the hours you’ve booked. If you consistently aren’t using your hours, talk to your account manager. We can shift you to a smaller package (part-time instead of full-time, or fewer hours) so you stop paying for capacity you don’t need.
Overtime is the opposite. If you need more than your reserved hours in a given week, that’s overtime. Overtime has to be pre-approved in writing by all three of us (you, the associate, and Ad Snipper) before the extra hours are worked. Overtime is billed at the standard hourly rate unless your agreement states otherwise.
What counts as “worked” hours. Time tracked through our software while the associate is actively working on your account. Bathroom breaks, lunch, and the associate’s own admin time are not billed to you. Meetings with you, training on your tools, and reviewing your briefs are.
6. The Bi-Weekly Cycle and How to End Things
Our agreements run on a two-week cycle. You can end the engagement at the end of any cycle, and so can we. No long-term lock-in beyond what’s in your signed agreement.
To end an engagement, just tell your account manager in writing before the current cycle closes. Work and billing stop at the end of that cycle.
If you cancel mid-cycle, you still owe for the cycle in progress, and any deposit is forfeited.
7. The Two-Year Rule (Non-Circumvention)
This one matters, so we’re going to be direct about it.
If you stop working with Ad Snipper, you agree not to hire, contract, or work with the associate we placed with you, directly or through any other company, for two years after the engagement ends.
This applies whether the associate quits, gets reassigned, or your contract simply runs out. It also covers indirect arrangements: family members, side companies, “friend of a friend” gigs. If we placed them and you’re using them, that’s a breach.
Why this exists: we invest in training and retaining our talent. Poaching that talent after we’ve done the work to find, vet, and place them isn’t fair to the rest of our clients or to us.
If this rule is broken, you owe Ad Snipper a placement fee equal to six months of the associate’s billed rate at the time of separation.
8. Confidentiality
Anything either side learns during the engagement that isn’t public stays confidential. That includes:
- Your business plans, financials, customer lists, and internal documents
- Our pricing, methods, and how we run our placements
- Anything either party reasonably treats as confidential
This obligation continues for three years after the engagement ends. It does not cover information that’s already public, was already known, or that either party is legally required to disclose.
9. Ownership of Work Product
Anything the associate creates for you while working on your account belongs to you, as long as your invoices are paid. That includes copy, creative, code, documentation, and any deliverables.
We retain the right to reference the engagement in case studies and marketing in general terms (industry, role type, results), unless you specifically request confidentiality in writing.
10. What We’re Not Responsible For
We need to be clear about where our responsibility ends.
Promises you make to your clients. Ad Snipper places talent. If you build campaigns, sales funnels, or deliverables for your own clients using our talent, the promises you make to those clients are yours to keep, not ours.
Outcomes. We don’t guarantee revenue, traffic, conversion rates, or any specific business result. The talent works inside your systems and follows your direction. Results depend on the full picture.
Third-party tools and platforms. If a Meta ad account gets suspended, a Google Ads policy changes, or a software tool goes down, that’s between you and the platform.
Indirect or consequential damages. Our total liability to you for any claim is capped at the amount you paid Ad Snipper in the three months before the claim arose.
This isn’t us hiding behind small print. It’s us being honest about what a talent placement service can and cannot promise.
11. Termination by Us
We can end an engagement, with notice, if:
- Invoices stay unpaid after a reasonable grace period
- The work environment becomes abusive, unsafe, or unethical for the associate
- You ask the associate to do something illegal, harassing, or outside the agreed scope
- You materially breach these terms
We will always try to resolve issues before walking away. But we will walk away if we have to.
12. Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms over time. Any changes take effect going forward only. They will not retroactively change anything in your signed agreement, which always takes precedence over this page.
We’ll post the updated date at the top. For material changes, we will email active clients.
13. Governing Law and Disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Missouri, USA. Any dispute that can’t be resolved through good-faith conversation will be handled through binding arbitration in Missouri, with each party covering their own legal costs unless the arbitrator decides otherwise.
Before either side files anything, we both agree to spend 30 days trying to resolve it directly. Most things get sorted in a phone call.
