I just feel like if it's on paper it may be taken more "seriously" rather than just mentioning it but I know that I cant really do much to make someone stay lol (seems like we cant really do much in this business)
and I think mentioning that the deposit would be non-refundable if they do decide to break it would hopefully steer some away from leaving, at least that's what I'm hoping for! but at the same time I don't want to scare away potential clients by placing them in a locked 12-month term so I don't know how to feel I just would never transition a screaming baby to have it for few months
