REAL ESTATE MEDIA SERVICES

Real Estate Media Bookings

By booking a shoot with Apex Innovations Media, you agree to the following terms:

Same-Day Cancellations & Rescheduling

A $65 fee applies to any cancellation or rescheduling made on the same day as the scheduled appointment.

On-Site Photo Review

During the shoot, our photographers will show all raw photos to whoever is present (agent, homeowner, or both) to confirm satisfaction and ensure we capture the property as desired.

Specific Requests & Absent Parties

  • If no one is present to review the shots and specific requests were not listed in the order details, a $65 reshoot fee will apply for up to 3 photos.
  • Reshoots requiring more than 3 photos will be billed at the full shoot rate.

Our Responsibility

Any mistakes or oversights on our part will be corrected at no additional cost.

Delays Outside Our Control

Delays or rescheduling caused by circumstances outside our control (e.g., property access issues, unfinished work by contractors, etc.) that lead to excessive delays or require a return visit will incur the $65 rescheduling fee.

Weather Delays

We do not charge clients for weather-related delays. Here's how we handle them:

  • Cloudy days – All skies in photos are replaced in Photoshop with blue skies.
  • Rain during shoot – Most shoots take over an hour, and in Florida it rarely rains the whole time.
    • If it's raining upon arrival, we'll start indoors and move outside if it stops.
    • If it looks like rain when we arrive, we'll start with exterior shots first.
  • Drone footage – We cannot fly drones in the rain. If rain stops mid-shoot, we'll capture drone shots along with other exteriors. If we aren't able to capture drone during the shoot the agent has the option to remove them from the order or have us come back out for no additional fee.
  • Full exterior reshoots – If we're unable to get any exterior shots due to weather, or if the client is unhappy with weather-affected exteriors, we'll return at no cost to capture/re-capture the outside only.
    • This makes rescheduling easier since no access to the inside of the property is required.

Community & Amenity Photos

Standard amenity photos include direct neighborhood amenities only such as:

  • Clubhouse
  • Pool(s)
  • Neighborhood entrance/signage
  • Sports courts (basketball, volleyball, tennis, etc.)
  • Neighborhood parks or playgrounds
Important: Nearby community locations outside the neighborhood (e.g., shopping centers, public parks, beaches, or attractions) are not included in the standard shoot. These outside locations can be photographed for an additional fee, custom-quoted based on distance, travel time, and number of locations.
  • Community & amenity photos are non-exclusive by default and may be resold or licensed to other agents from our photo bank.
  • If you wish for community photos to be exclusive to you, please contact us prior to the shoot. An exclusive licensing fee will apply.

Usage & Licensing

  • By purchasing our services, you are purchasing a license to use the delivered media for the marketing and sale of the specific property for which it was commissioned.
  • All media remains the intellectual property of Apex Innovations Media. We may use it for our own marketing, portfolio, or other purposes without restriction.
  • Media may not be sold, transferred, or given to another agent, brokerage, or third party for reuse including in cases where the listing expires or is relisted by a different agent in the future.

CONTENT/ADVERTISING AGENCY SERVICES

Services Provided

Apex Innovations Media is a full-service marketing agency that provides content creation, social media management, paid advertising, landing page design, CRM automation, and strategy consulting for local businesses. We offer select promotional campaigns, including limited-time trials (e.g., free marketing months), which are subject to qualification and availability.

Eligibility

Our services are designed for established businesses. We do not accept startups, solopreneurs, or individuals. To qualify, you must currently operate a legitimate local service business generating consistent revenue (typically performing 5–10 jobs/month or more). We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason at our discretion.

Promotional Trial Terms

In select cases, we may offer one month of full-service marketing at no charge. This includes setup, onboarding, content creation, ad management, landing page builds, and automation.

At the conclusion of the trial:

  • You may choose to continue working with us on a paid 3-month engagement.
  • If you do not continue, access to all systems, ads, content, and automations will be removed.

This structure exists to demonstrate the value of our services and create a meaningful contrast in lead flow.

Exclusivity Guarantee

If you become a paying client, we agree not to work with any direct competitors in your defined service area.

However, if you:

  • Request a refund, or
  • Decline to move forward after a trial campaign,

…you forfeit any claim to service-area exclusivity, and we reserve the right to work with other businesses in your area.

Client Responsibilities

To deliver optimal results, we require timely access to:

  • Your business information
  • Existing accounts (e.g., Meta, Google, CRM)
  • Availability for scheduled shoots, reviews, and approvals

Failure to provide timely cooperation may result in delays or performance impacts, which are not grounds for a refund.
