Write the rounds-of-feedback limit and the change-request messages from your own scope
The problem
The ProCopywriters guidance warns that unlimited revisions are a recipe for scope creep and says to build revision time into the fee and to count research, client meetings and brief changes as costs. The hard part is the moment a client asks for a fourth round or a new deliverable and you have to say so politely. AI can turn the scope and rounds in your own quote into a feedback-rounds paragraph, a message for when a request is outside it, and a short change-request note with blanks for time and price. It does not decide what your contract allows, or write the copy: the scope, price and terms are yours, and your solicitor checks the terms.
What AI does
AI turns your own scope and your decisions about feedback rounds into a clear paragraph for your quotes and polite messages for requests outside the scope. It writes no copy for the project and states no legal position; the figures are yours.
Time
The steps, in short
- Copy the scope and included feedback rounds from your own quote or contract.
- Decide what counts as a round, what counts as new work, and your prices.
- Have AI draft the quote paragraph and the change-request messages.
- Check each request against your scope yourself, and get written agreement before extra work starts.
