Revision

A client revision is a request from a client for changes or modifications to be made to a project that has already been delivered. The revision request can be made for a variety of reasons, such as to improve the quality, to make changes to meet the client’s needs or requirements, or to fix any errors or issues.

In a freelancing context, revisions are a normal part of the creative process and are an opportunity for the freelancer and the client to work together to make the final product the best it can be. Revisions can involve changes to content, design, formatting, or other aspects of the project.

It’s important for freelancers to have clear communication with the client regarding revision requests, and to establish expectations and guidelines in advance. Freelancers should provide an estimate of the time and cost required to make the revisions, and should also be clear about any limitations or restrictions on the number of revisions included in the original project scope and budget.

Overall, handling revisions professionally and effectively is an important part of building a strong relationship with the client and delivering high-quality work.
