This is a common request, understandably too, and we are prepared to take on exclusive work sometimes but there are conditions due to the nature of our business. Here are some of the conditions:
- We rarely look at any exclusive work that costs less than $1,000 as it usually isn't worth taking a developer off his current task for anything less.
- The new feature has to be so unique that our other customers aren't likely to ask for the same thing. If we do get a similar request we will take his order and use the same code - we will also charge him the same price as you paid. So keep in mind the exclusivity is limited to you and anyone who can pay the same as you have.
- We do not copy features from our competitors! Under no circumstances will we look at a competitors script to find out how they do something. You may describe what you want but please don't ask us to look at a script to clone it's features. This keeps our scripts original, unique and ensures we do not get involved in pointless copyright or patent discussions.
