Our agreement, both ways.

This is a training and support program

We teach you, give you tools to work with, help you choose who to sell to, and work your first client deal beside you. You are building your own business the whole time.

This is not employment

To be completely clear about what this is not:

• You are not our employee, and we are not your employer.
• You are not our contractor, and we are not yours.
• We do not pay you a wage, a stipend, or an allowance, and you do not pay us anything.
• We do not control your hours, your location, or how you do your work.
• This is not a job placement or recruitment service, and we are not an agency.

Nothing here makes a partnership

You do not speak for TDAT and we do not speak for you, except where this agreement says otherwise in section 6. Neither of us can create an obligation for the other.

We will teach you properly

Four weeks of structured training covering your skill, how to find and approach clients, and how to handle one once you have them. Live sessions and materials you can keep.

We will give you real tools

A seat in our CRM so you can call, email and message from proper software instead of a spreadsheet, and a TDAT email address for the work you do in this program (see section 6).

We will help you choose who to sell to

We review the niche you propose and tell you honestly whether we think it can be sold into, and why. If we think it cannot, we help you find one that can.

We will work your first deal beside you

You do the outreach and book the meeting. A member of our team joins that meeting with you, as a real reference, so a business owner is not being asked to take a chance on a stranger alone.

We cannot promise you a client. We can promise we will be in the room trying.

We will introduce you to counsel for registration

Once you have a client, we introduce you to our Philippine legal adviser, who walks you through registering your business properly. Read section 12 for what that introduction is and is not.

We will never charge you anything

No application fee, no training fee, no placement fee, no deposit, no equipment fee, no repayment later, and no share of your income. Not now, not after you graduate, not ever. This one is not negotiable and never changes.

We will never take your clients

A client you find is yours. We will not solicit them for ourselves behind you, and we will not treat your relationship with them as ours.

We will give you your data when you ask

Your contact list and your work in the CRM belong to you. Ask us and we will export it in a usable format, within 14 days, whether you are staying or leaving, and without asking why.

We will be honest with you

If we think the program is not working for you, we will say so early and explain why, rather than let you spend months on it.

Give it real hours

You told us how many hours a week you can give. Give roughly that. If your situation changes, tell us instead of going quiet. We would much rather adjust with you than wonder.

Do the outreach

We can teach you and open a door. We cannot make the calls for you. The part that only you can do is the part that decides how this goes.

Be honest

In your application, with us, and with the people you contact. Do not overstate your experience to a client. Do not claim skills you do not have. Getting hired on a false picture ends badly for you, not for us.

Contact people decently

When you use our tools and our email address to reach people:

• Only contact businesses, about business, in the niche you agreed with us.
• Say who you are honestly in every message.
• If someone asks you to stop, stop, and do not contact them again.
• No bulk untargeted sending, no purchased lists, no misleading subject lines.
• Follow the rules we give you on sending volume and identity.

This matters more than it may look. Our email reputation is shared, so careless sending by one person damages the deliverability of everyone else in the program.

Look after people's information

Treat contact details and anything a client shares with you as private. Do not sell, publish, or pass it to anyone. The Philippine Data Privacy Act applies to you once you are handling personal data, and we cover the basics in training.

Use the tools for this program only

The CRM seat and the email address are for your work in this program. Do not share your login, and do not use them for anything unrelated.

Tell us when something goes wrong

A client complaint, a mistake you made, an email that went to the wrong person, anything. We can almost always help if we hear about it early. Tell us late and our options shrink.

We do not owe you a wage

You are not paid by us during this program, because you are not working for us. You are building your own business.

We do not owe you a client

We cannot guarantee you will be hired. It depends on your niche, your skill, your effort, and on other people's decisions that neither of us controls. Anyone who guarantees you a client is not being straight with you.

You do not owe us money, ever

See section 2. There is no fee at any point and no claim on your income, during the program or after it.

You do not owe us exclusivity

Keep your current job. Take other work. Work with another program at the same time if you want to. We only ask that you are honest about your hours.

Neither of us owes the other a reason to stop

See section 11.

Your business

Registered in your name, owned by you. We have no share in it, no stake, and no claim on it.

Your clients and your contracts

The agreement is between you and your client. We are not a party to it. What you charge is your decision, and we will advise only if you ask.

Everything you invoice

One hundred percent. We take no commission, no finder's fee, and no percentage, on the first client or any client after.

Your contact list

The people you find and add are yours. You can export them and take them with you. See section 2 for how.

Your work

Anything you produce for a client belongs to you and them, on whatever terms the two of you agree. Not to us.

Why you get one

It lets you work in our systems, and it tells the people you contact that a real company is standing behind you while you get started. That credibility is genuinely useful and it is genuinely ours to lend.

What it does not mean

It does not make you our employee (see section 1). You may say you are in the TDAT First Client Program and that we are working the deal with you, because both are true. You may not say you are staff, speak for the company, agree anything on our behalf, or use our name for work outside this program.

We can suspend it

If it is used in a way that breaks section 3, we can suspend the address, and we will tell you why. Nothing else in this agreement changes if we do.

It ends when the program does

When you leave or graduate, the address closes. Your business, your clients and your contacts are unaffected, which is why we help you move to your own email and domain as you register. We will give you reasonable notice before closing it.

You keep ours private

Our training materials, internal tools, processes, and anything about our own business that is not public. Do not republish or resell the materials. You can of course use everything you learn in your own business, forever, without asking. That is the point of teaching you.

We keep yours private

Your application, your video, your client list, your rates, and anything you tell us in confidence. We will not share them outside our team without asking you first.

If you want to be a story, you say so

We will never use your name, photo, or results in marketing unless you give us permission in writing at the time. Silence is not permission, and you can withdraw it later.

We pay you, at a normal rate

If we hire you for work of our own, that is an ordinary paid engagement with its own written terms. We pay a fair market rate for the work, the same as we would pay anyone. Your position in this program gives you no discount and costs you nothing.

You will never be asked to do unpaid work for TDAT. If anyone suggests otherwise, that is not this program.

Nobody is authorised to take your money

Not us, not a team member, not a recruiter, not anyone claiming to represent this program. There is no situation in which paying someone gets you in, moves you up, or gets you a client.

Tell us immediately if it happens

Email dianne@twindesigns.tech. You will not be in trouble and it will not affect your place. We need to know so we can stop it happening to someone else.

We do not guarantee income

We make no promise about how much you will earn, or that you will earn anything. We have no earnings claims to show you and we will not invent any.

We are not responsible for your client work

Once you have a client, the work is between you and them. We are not liable for what you deliver, or for a dispute between you. We will help you think it through if you ask.

Our tools can have outages

We run the CRM and the email properly, but no system is perfect. We are not liable for business you lose to an outage, and we will always tell you what happened.

Either of us can stop, at any time

You can leave whenever you want, for any reason or none, by telling us in writing. We can end your place in the program the same way, and if we do we will tell you why.

You keep everything that is yours

Your business, your clients, your contracts, your income, your contact list, and everything you learned. Leaving costs you nothing and you owe us nothing.

What actually stops

Your CRM seat and your TDAT email address close, and training access ends. We will export your data for you first, on request.

What survives

Confidentiality (section 7), what you own (section 5), and the no fees rule (section 9) continue after this agreement ends.

Registration help is an introduction

Our Philippine legal adviser explains the registration process and helps you through it. Unless you and they separately agree otherwise in writing, they are not acting as your own lawyer, and this program does not create a lawyer and client relationship between you and them or between you and us.

Tax is yours

You are responsible for your own registrations, filings, and taxes. We can point you at what generally applies, but we are not your accountant and your circumstances may differ. Get your own advice before you rely on anything for your specific situation.

We tell you, and you can say no

If we change this agreement we will tell you in writing before it takes effect and explain what changed. If you do not accept the change, you can leave under section 11 and keep everything that is yours. We will not change it quietly.

One rule never changes

The no fees rule in section 9. That is not subject to change, in any version of this agreement.

To be confirmed by counsel

This section is intentionally unfinished. Governing law and how any dispute is handled are being set with our Philippine legal adviser, so that the answer is fair to a participant in the Philippines rather than convenient for us.

This draft will not be put in front of an applicant until this section is complete.
