Other Things To Take Into Account
Rush Jobs
Creative Services will do its best to accommodate rush requests. However, be aware that we may not be able to accept rush jobs when doing so will compromise the schedule of ongoing time-sensitive projects.
Editing & Proofreading
Creative Services does not provide proofreading services. The project requestor is responsible for checking all of the text (spelling, phone numbers, websites, etc.).
Please proofread the submitted content and ensure that everyone who has a voice in the project has reviewed and approved prior to submission. Final text should be provided when opening a job ticket, submitting text after this date may affect the delivery date.
We recommend that you have the Communications & Marketing team review your content prior to submitting a job with Creative Services. Please submit a request
