How we price

Every engagement is scoped first, because a single shop and a group with many locations need different work. You see the complete scope and fee in writing before you pay anything. The first call with the Director is free.

The range

Paid work is scoped first. Short assignments from about ₹25,000; full growth systems to ₹10 lakh a month and more. You see the complete scope and fee in writing before you pay anything.

Rupee fees exclude GST, added at the applicable rate.

Ad spend is paid by you to the platforms from your own accounts and is never part of a Tessmont fee.

How an engagement starts and how it is billed

1. The first call with the Director is free, and it stays free whether or not you go ahead.
2. After the call, CA Mohammed Baaqar Shariff sends the written scope and fee within 3 working days. Every engagement is scoped first. The complete scope and fee reach you in writing before any payment.
3. Billing is by milestone: you pay for a stage of work, not in advance for the whole.
4. A monthly engagement can be ended by either side with 30 days' notice.

Invoices are issued by Tessmont Technologies Private Limited: in rupees for Indian clients, with GST added at the applicable rate (18% for marketing services); in US dollars for US clients, as an export of services zero-rated for GST under a Letter of Undertaking, at the dollar fee stated on the proposal.

A W-8BEN-E is available on request for US clients.

Everything is delivered in-house by the Tessmont team: brand, content and creative, performance marketing, planning, strategy, ROI and workflows, reported in Command.

Not offered: legal, tax or financial advice to clients; bought followers or reviews.

Questions

What decides where in the range we land?

The number of locations, how many channels we run for you, whether photography, film or a new website is part of the work, and how much has to be built before it can be run. A new place that needs everything costs more than an established one that needs one channel fixed. The written scope names each of these before you pay.

Does ad spend go through Tessmont?

No. Ad spend is paid by you to the platforms from your own accounts and is never part of a Tessmont fee.

Is the first call really free?

Yes. It is 30 minutes with the Director, and you leave with three practical actions in writing the same day, whether or not you go ahead.
