The specific scope, deliverables, schedule, and fees for any engagement will be described in a written proposal, statement of work, agreement, or invoice between TBMC and the client.

3. SMS / Text Message Communications and Mobile Terms

By providing your mobile phone number to TBMC and opting in, you expressly consent to receive text messages (SMS) from TBMC at that number. The terms below govern the TBMC SMS program.

The TBMC SMS program is used to deliver the following categories of messages:

  • Customer care and lead follow-up: Two-way conversational messaging in response to your inquiries about TBMC services, scheduling, and your business needs
  • Appointment reminders: Confirmations and reminders for scheduled calls, consultations, audits, and meetings
  • Account notifications: Transactional updates including invoices, payment confirmations, reporting deliveries, and service status updates

3.2 How You Opt In

You may opt in to receive text messages from TBMC by:

  • Providing your mobile number to a TBMC representative and verbally or in writing requesting that we communicate with you by text
  • Replying to a TBMC message in a manner that confirms your consent

3.3 Message Frequency

Message frequency varies based on your interaction with us and the category of communication. Marketing messages will not exceed a reasonable frequency and will only be sent to subscribers who have opted in to marketing communications.

3.4 Cost

Message and data rates may apply. Charges are billed by and payable to your mobile carrier. TBMC does not charge for the messages themselves. Contact your wireless provider for details about your message and data plan.

3.5 How to Opt Out (STOP)

You may opt out of TBMC text messages at any time by replying STOP to any message we send you.

3.8 Privacy

Your privacy is important to us. See our Privacy Policy for how we collect, use, and protect your information, including information related to SMS opt-in and consent. No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

By opting in to TBMC text messages, you agree to receive messages of the categories described above. You also acknowledge that consent to receive SMS is not a condition of purchasing any TBMC service.

4. Use of the Site

You agree to use the Site and our services only for lawful purposes and in a manner that does not violate any applicable law, infringe the rights of others, or restrict or inhibit the use of the Site by others. Prohibited conduct includes but is not limited to:

  • Attempting to gain unauthorized access to the Site, our systems, or other users' accounts

5. Engagement Terms, Fees, and Payment

Specific deliverables, timelines, and fees for paid services will be set forth in a separate proposal, statement of work, or invoice. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, fees are due upon receipt of invoice, payments are non-refundable, and TBMC reserves the right to pause or suspend services for accounts with past-due balances.

6. Free Analysis and Consultations

TBMC may offer a complimentary analysis or consultation for prospective clients. The free analysis is provided for informational purposes only, is not a guarantee of results, and does not create an obligation to engage TBMC for paid services or for TBMC to provide paid services.

7. Intellectual Property

All content on the Site, including text, graphics, logos, images, videos, and software, is the property of TBMC or its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, modify, or create derivative works of any Site content without prior written permission, except as expressly permitted by these Terms.

Deliverables created for a client under a paid engagement (websites, reports, optimized GBP listings, content) are governed by the applicable written agreement. Absent a written agreement, TBMC retains ownership of underlying tools, templates, processes, and know-how.

8. Third-Party Services and Links

The Site and our services may rely on or link to third-party platforms, including Google, Meta, HighLevel (GoHighLevel), analytics providers, and SMS message-delivery providers. TBMC is not responsible for the availability, accuracy, content, or practices of any third-party service. Your use of third-party services is subject to those providers' terms and privacy policies.

9. No Guarantee of Results

TBMC works to deliver high-quality marketing services and to improve client visibility on Google Maps and the web. However, search engine and Google Maps ranking outcomes depend on many factors outside of TBMC's control, including Google algorithm updates, competitor activity, market conditions, and the accuracy and completeness of information provided by the client. TBMC does not guarantee any specific ranking, traffic, lead volume, conversion rate, or revenue outcome.

10. Disclaimers

THE SITE AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TBMC DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. TBMC DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE.

11. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL TBMC OR ITS OWNERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SITE OR SERVICES, EVEN IF TBMC HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. TBMC'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TBMC IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100), WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

12. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless TBMC and its owners, employees, contractors, and agents from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to your use of the Site or services, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or the rights of any third party.

13. Termination

TBMC may suspend or terminate your access to the Site or services at any time, for any reason, with or without notice. You may stop using the Site at any time. Provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law) will survive.

14. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles. You agree that any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or the services will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Pinellas County, Florida, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of those courts.

15. Changes to These Terms

TBMC may update these Terms from time to time. The "Effective Date" at the top of this page reflects the most recent version. If we make material changes, we will provide notice by posting the updated Terms on the Site or by other reasonable means.
