Terms & Conditions

Roar Coaching Limited - Terms of Engagement

1.0 Working with Us

1.1 We strive to provide quality services and work to satisfy our client’s needs. We have written our Terms and Conditions in plain English to make them clear and easy to read, and we have used “we” and “us” for Roar Coaching Limited and “you” for the Client. 

1.2 The term “services” as used in these terms includes any services you engage us to provide, which may include Executive Coaching, Team Development, Business Coaching, Facilitation, Speaking, and/or Coach Training. The exact services to be provided to you will be set out in your proposal or otherwise agreed between us in writing. 

1.3 Any services we provide to or for you will be provided on the basis of these terms and conditions. You will be deemed to have accepted these terms if you confirm by email that you accept the proposal or if you pay the deposit (whichever comes first).

2.0 Timeframes

2.1 We will provide our services to you in accordance with the timeframes agreed by us or, if no timeframe is agreed, then within a reasonable time. If we can’t provide the services within the agreed or reasonable timeframe because of events or circumstances outside our control, we will not be liable to you for any costs of delay. 

3.0 Our Obligations

3.1 We will provide our services to you with reasonable care and skill, in line with all applicable laws. However, we cannot warrant or guarantee any particular outcome as a result of using our services. We will not be liable for any loss you experience as a consequence of relying on any information or recommendations provided by us. 

3.2 Where the services are being provided for business purposes, the provisions of the Consumer Guarantees Act and Fair Trading Act do not apply. 

4.0 Payment Terms

4.1 Our payment terms will depend on the type of services you engage us to provide: 

  • For team sessions, a 50% deposit is required on booking. The balance will be due within 7 days of delivery. 

  • For one-on-one sessions (3 month programme), payment in full is required as soon as you accept the proposal. 

  • For one-on-one sessions (6 or 12 month programmes), a 50% deposit is required on booking and the balance is due halfway through the programme.

  • For workshops, full payment is required to confirm your booking. If you are eligible for funding, full payment of the balance of the course cost is required to confirm your booking. 

For any other session types, payment details will be set out in the proposal. 

4.2 Our fees do not include any accommodation or transportation costs, or reasonable expenses which are necessary for us to provide the services, which will be charged separately. Where possible, we’ll get your approval to these costs before we incur them. 

4.3 All fees are exclusive of GST unless otherwise specified.

5.0 Cancellations/Non-Attendance/Rescheduling

5.1 We understand that some circumstances mean you need to reschedule or cancel a session, and we know that you will understand that as a profitable business who coaches success, we must adhere to a cancellation policy that is both fair and equitable for our clients and our business.

5.2 If you cancel or reschedule a one-on- one session less than 48 hours before the start of that session, or fail to attend, no refund will be available. If you rebook, you will need to pay for a new session.

5.3 If you cancel or reschedule a Team Development programme or Facilitation Day less than two (2) weeks, but more than one (1) week, from the start of the programme, 50% of the deposit paid will be refunded. If you choose to cancel the programme less than one (1) week before the start of the programme, no refund will be available.

5.4 If you cancel or reschedule a workshop more than seven (7) days prior to the start date, you may choose to transfer to another course or receive a 50% refund of any course fee paid. If you cancel less than seven (7) days but more than forty-eight (48) hours before the workshop, you may reschedule to a later date; however, no refund will be provided. If you cancel less than forty-eight (48) hours before the start of the workshop, no refund or rescheduling option will be available.
