Contracts &
Client Onboarding

AI Hustler 45 — Applied Skills — TARAhut AI Labs

Create simple service contracts, build client onboarding workflows, and practice the full client journey through role-play.

Section 01

Why Contracts Are Non-Negotiable

Horror story: a freelancer did โ‚น25,000 worth of work. Client said "mujhe pasand nahi aaya" and refused to pay. Why? No contract.

๐Ÿšจ

The โ‚น25,000 Nightmare

A freelancer created 30 social media posts, 2 videos, and a complete GMB profile for a restaurant. Took 2 weeks of work. Client ghosted after delivery. No contract = no protection = no payment. This will NEVER happen to you because you will always use a contract.

What a Contract Protects

YOU๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ

Payment Security

50% advance before starting work. Remaining 50% on delivery. Written in the contract = enforceable. No more "sochke batata hoon" after work is done.

SCOPE๐Ÿ“

Scope Clarity

Exactly what is included and what is NOT included. "20 posts per month" prevents the client from saying "ek aur post bana do na" endlessly. Boundaries matter.

CLIENT๐Ÿค

Expectation Setting

Client knows exactly what they get, when they get it, and what they need to provide. No surprises on either side. Professional relationships need clear expectations.

REVISIONS๐Ÿ”„

Revision Policy

2 rounds of revisions included. Additional revisions at โ‚น500/round. This prevents infinite revision loops that eat your time and profit.

"Simple aur clear rakhna hai, waqeel wali language nahi chahiye." Your contract should be readable by a shop owner in Ludhiana, not a lawyer in Delhi. Hindi/English mix is fine. Clarity beats formality.
Contracts protect both sides. They are a sign of professionalism, not distrust.

Next: The actual contract template you will use with every client.

Simple Service Contract Template

7 essential clauses. No legalese. Clear and professional.

CLAUSE 1๐Ÿ‘ฅ

Service Provider: [Your Name]. Client: [Business Name, Owner Name]. Clear identification of who is involved in this agreement.

CLAUSE 2๐Ÿ“‹

Services Described

Exact services: "Social media management including 20 posts/month, GMB updates, WhatsApp broadcast setup." Be specific. Vague = trouble.

What the client receives: number of posts, designs, videos, reports. "20 Instagram posts, 4 GMB posts, 2 videos, 1 monthly report."

CLAUSE 4๐Ÿ“…

Timeline

Start date, delivery schedule, monthly cycle dates. "Work begins within 48 hours of advance payment. Monthly cycle: 1st to 30th."

CLAUSE 5๐Ÿ’ฐ

Payment Terms

Amount, payment schedule, payment method. "โ‚น10,000/month. 50% advance, 50% on 15th. Payment via UPI/bank transfer."

CLAUSE 6๐Ÿ”„

Revision Policy

"2 rounds of revisions included per deliverable. Additional revisions: โ‚น500 per round. Revision requests within 48 hours of delivery."

CLAUSE 7๐Ÿšช

Cancellation

"Either party may cancel with 15 days notice. Work completed until cancellation date will be paid in full. Advance is non-refundable after work begins."

Demo 1: Generate Contract with AI

Click to copy: "Create a simple service contract for a digital marketing freelancer in India. The service provider offers social media management (โ‚น10,000/month Growth Package). Include 7 clauses: parties, services, deliverables (20 posts, GMB updates, WhatsApp setup, 2 videos, monthly report), timeline, payment (50% advance, 50% on 15th via UPI), revision policy (2 rounds included, โ‚น500 extra), and cancellation (15 days notice). Use simple language that a small business owner can understand. Mix of English and Hindi is acceptable. Format as a professional document ready to print."
AI generates a clean, professional contract in under 1 minute. Review it, customize the names and details, and you have a ready-to-use legal document.

Role-Play: Full Client Journey

Pair up. One is the client (salon owner). One is the AI service provider. Run the full journey.

The Role-Play Script

STEP 1๐Ÿ“‹

Present Service Menu

Show the 3-tier service menu. Explain what each tier includes. Let the "client" ask questions. Be confident but not pushy.

STEP 2โ“

Handle Questions

"Client" asks questions and raises concerns. "Kitna time lagega?" "Guarantee kya hai?" "Pehle bhi kisi ne try kiya, kaam nahi aaya." Practice responding naturally.

STEP 3๐ŸŽฏ

Recommend a Package

Based on the "client's" needs, recommend the Growth Package with clear reasoning. Use the per-day breakdown. Show sample deliverables.

STEP 4โœ…

"Client" Says Yes

Practice the moment of agreement. "Bahut achha, chaliye shuru karte hain." Stay professional, not overly excited.

STEP 5๐Ÿ“œ

Walk Through Contract

Show the contract. Walk through each clause. "Yeh hai aapka agreement. Ismein yeh yeh included hai..." Answer contract questions.

STEP 6๐Ÿ“

Send Onboarding Form

Explain the onboarding form. "Yeh form bharna hoga taaki hum kaam shuru kar sakein. Logo, photos, aur business details chahiye."

๐ŸŽญ

Role-Play Tips

For the "client": Act like a real business owner โ€” skeptical, busy, budget-conscious. Ask tough questions. Do not make it easy.
For the "provider": Stay calm, professional, and helpful. Use specific numbers and examples. Show your portfolio samples.
