Define one round

Treat a round as one consolidated set of feedback on a submitted deliverable. Name the response deadline and decision-maker.

Explain which stages include revision rounds and how many are included.

Protect approved direction

Distinguish refinement from a new concept, audience, format, or reversed approval. A new direction is a scope change, even if it arrives as feedback.

Record approvals at each major gate so the project has a stable basis for the next phase.

Offer a paid path forward

State how additional rounds are priced and how they affect delivery. Get written approval before completing them.

A clear paid option lets the client keep improving the work without making the original fee meaningless.
