HOW SAZM WORKS DIFFERENTLY
A general comparison of common ways to get website work done. Every freelancer and agency is different; this shows how SazM is set up.
| What matters | Hourly freelance marketplaces | Traditional agencies | SazM |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price | Hourly billing; total often unknown up front | Project quotes or monthly retainers | Fixed price agreed in writing before work starts |
| Payment | Deposits or escrow are common | Deposits and minimum terms are common | Agreed one-off fixes: pay after you verify on staging |
| Turnaround | Varies by person and workload | Often scheduled into sprints | 24–48h per agreed fix or scoped task |
| Who does the work | Varies | Often a team, sometimes junior staff | One senior engineer with 20+ years in production (since Oct 2006) |
| Communication | Chat, sometimes calls | Status meetings are common | Written and async: email and the client portal, no calls |
| Flexibility | Per-contract | Contract terms may apply | Monthly plan can be paused or cancelled; you keep full ownership of delivered code |

After we agree the scope and you provide the access needed to reproduce the issue. If the job needs more time or a different scope, you receive a written proposal before work starts.
For an agreed urgent or speed fix, you verify the work on staging before payment. WordPress care and the monthly development plan follow their published monthly billing terms.
Pay-after-verification fixes are only invoiced once you accept the result, so there is nothing to pay if the agreed fix is not delivered. Other fixed-price fixes are covered by a money-back guarantee if the agreed root cause cannot be fixed. Details are in the refund policy.
A single urgent fix covers one well-defined bug, error or bounded UI change. If the review shows more work is needed, you get a written quote before anything is charged, and you decide whether to go ahead.
Yes. The urgent fix and speed fix are standalone, one-time fixed-price jobs with no recurring commitment.
No. The agreed work is backed up first and tested on staging where available. You review the result before a production release is agreed. Access and release steps are confirmed in writing.
Least-privilege access works best: a GitHub or GitLab invite, an SSH key, a hosting or Cloudflare delegate role, or a temporary admin account. Share passwords through an expiring encrypted link, never in plain email. You can revoke access as soon as the job is done.
You add tasks to a backlog in the client portal. One task is active at a time, scoped so it can be delivered in 24–48h. Larger work is split into smaller tasks or quoted separately.
You keep full ownership of the code and deliverables completed for you. You can pause or cancel the monthly plan from the portal; unused days in the current billing cycle are credited when you resume.
Yes. Share a written brief, relevant repository or staging access, and acceptance criteria. Work can be delivered into your existing workflow, with written updates across time zones.
