This Agreement is between Cold Flow Forge ("we", "us") and the client named at checkout or on the signature page (the "Client", "you").
You accept this Agreement by paying at checkout or by signing below.
This Agreement covers The 90-Day Agency Pipeline Sprint (the "Sprint"): the build, 90 days of sending, and any extra time under the Full-Distance Guarantee in Section 4. Anything after the Sprint is agreed separately, in writing.
We build and run a done for you cold email system. Its job is to put qualified sales calls on your calendar. The build includes:
If we agree in writing to extra assets (for example, a video sales letter script), we write the script and you record and own the final video.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Investment to start. It pays for your tools for the full Sprint. | $2,000 USD |
| Each qualified call, from the first call | $250 USD |
The $2,000 is paid up front. Work begins only after payment is received, and we start warming your inboxes that day. We will confirm to you in writing the day work begins. The $2,000 pays for your tools for the full Sprint, and those bills come out month by month. It is not refundable.
Monthly cap. On day 1 you set, in writing, the most qualified calls you want in a calendar month. We never book past it. You can change it any time, in writing.
Invoices. We send one invoice a month for the qualified calls delivered that month, taken from the shared call sheet in Section 3. Each invoice is due within 7 days. If an invoice is 7 days past due, we send you a written reminder and keep sending in good faith. If it is 14 days past due, we may end this Agreement under Section 11, and the Full-Distance Guarantee ends. Calls already delivered stay payable.
Billing disputes go through Section 3. Starting a card chargeback on validly billed fees instead of using Section 3 is a material breach of this Agreement.
A qualified call is a call where the prospect shows up and passes all 3 checks below.
During onboarding, we record the 3 checks for your market in a dated ICP Record, and you confirm it in writing. That record decides what qualifies. No call is billed before you have confirmed the ICP Record. Changes to the record must be confirmed in writing by both of us.
A qualified call counts whether you close the prospect or not. Closing is your part. Our part is getting the right people to show up.
The call sheet. Every call goes on one shared Google Sheet you can see at any time. Each row shows the date, the prospect, the company, the link to the call brief, the proof we saved for each of the 3 checks before we booked the call, whether the prospect showed up, and the $250 owed.
Your booking page. Calls are booked on your own Calendly. During onboarding we add 3 short questions to it, one for each check, so the prospect answers them in their own words before the call.
Attendance rules:
A call that fails a check. If a prospect attends but fails any of the 3 checks, flag it on the call sheet within 24 hours of the call. Name the check and give one line on why. The proof decides:
After 24 hours, an unflagged call stands as billed. We will show you the full email thread for any call on request.
The goal is 15 to 20 qualified calls a month by month 3 of sending. That is a target the system is built toward, not a promise.
The guarantee is at least 15 qualified calls within the 90 days of sending. The 90 days start on launch day, the day the first campaign email goes out.
If fewer than 15 qualified calls have happened by day 90, we keep running your campaign, and keep paying for every tool, at no extra cost to you, until your 15th qualified call. Any qualified call after day 90 that brings you up to 15 is not billed.
If you set a monthly cap under 8, the guarantee is 2 times your cap instead of 15. For example, a cap of 3 means 6 qualified calls guaranteed, and a cap of 5 means 10. We use the lowest cap you set during the 90 days. Everywhere this Section says 15, read that number instead.
Delays. If we are waiting on you for something we need to run the campaign (the intake form, the onboarding call, an approval, an answer), the clock pauses, and those days are added to the end.
The guarantee ends if:
What we do not guarantee: clients, closed deals, revenue, or inbox placement. Those depend on things outside our control, including the strength of your offer and your own sales process.
| When | What |
|---|---|
| Day 0 | You invest. Domains purchased, mailboxes built, warmup begins. Your onboarding call is booked before our sales call ends. |
| Days 1 to 7 | You fill in the intake form and join the onboarding call. We lock your ICP Record and the 3 checks. |
| Days 7 to 14 | List sourced and verified. Copy written and sent for your approval. |
| By day 15 | Launch day. The first email goes out, and your 90 days start. |
| 90 days | Replies worked, qualified calls booked, campaign optimized. |
We launch within 15 days of your payment, as long as onboarding is done within the first 7 days. Warmup takes about two weeks and cannot be safely shortened. Do not expect booked calls during warmup.
Your approvals drive the launch date. If approval of the list or copy is delayed, launch moves back by the same amount.
Your warranties. You confirm that the information you give us is accurate, that claims about your own products and services are truthful and lawful, and that you have the right to offer what the campaign promotes. Copy you approve is treated as your own statement about your business.
Brand authorization. You authorize us to register sending domains that reference or resemble your name or brand, and to send campaign emails in your name, for this engagement only.
We register and run separate sending domains and mailboxes for your campaign. Your primary domain is never used for outbound sending.
We follow deliverability best practice, including authentication and keeping the spam complaint rate below 0.10%. We do not guarantee inbox placement. Mailbox providers make filtering decisions we do not control.
We may rotate or replace domains if performance drops. We are not liable for spam placement or reputation damage caused by things outside our control, including instructions from you that we advised against in writing.
Your sending account. You get your own sending account, with its own domains, mailboxes and sending servers, paid for with your investment during the Sprint. We run it for you.
Taking it over. Once the Sprint is done (after day 90 of sending, or once your guarantee is met, whichever comes first), you can take over the whole account at no cost, domains and mailboxes included, by moving the monthly bills to your own card. If you end this Agreement before then, or don't want the account, we cancel it. Your lead list, ICP research, reply history and campaign emails are yours either way (Section 8). Our templates and processes stay ours.
Campaigns target recipients in the countries we agree with you, ordinarily the United States.
Opt out and suppression requests are honored across all of your campaigns.
Each of us will keep the other's non public business information confidential and will not share it with third parties, except as required by law.
You may end this Agreement at any time by written notice. It ends the business day after you send it.
We may end this Agreement only for one of these reasons, by written notice:
When this Agreement ends:
To the maximum extent the law allows, neither of us is liable to the other for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, including lost profits or lost business.
Our total liability under this Agreement, including our indemnification duty in Section 13, will not exceed the total fees you paid us in the 3 months before the claim arose. This cap does not apply to fraud, willful misconduct, or your indemnification duties in Section 13.
We are an independent contractor. Nothing here creates an employment relationship, partnership, or joint venture.
This Agreement is governed by the laws of British Columbia, Canada. We will both first try to resolve any dispute directly and in good faith. Failing that, disputes go to the courts of British Columbia, and both of us consent to that jurisdiction.
Written notice may be given by email: to us at andrew@coldflowforge.com, and to you at the email you used at checkout. Notice takes effect the business day after it is sent.
If any part of this Agreement is found unenforceable, the rest stays in force, and the unenforceable part is replaced with the closest enforceable equivalent.
This is the entire agreement between us and replaces anything discussed before it. Changes must be in writing and agreed by both of us.
