If your contract language changes every deal, risk goes up and velocity goes down.
Here are 7 clauses to standardize first.
1) Cutoff and release language
Define exact cutoff time, timezone, and release behavior.
2) Attrition and pickup threshold
Set minimum pickup and the formula for shortfall charges.
3) Cancellation schedule by timeline
Use a time-based fee ladder with clear notice rules.
4) Force majeure section
Keep one legal-approved version for consistency.
5) Payment milestones and deposits
Define due dates, non-refundable components, and late terms.
6) Rate protection and parity
Clarify what happens if public rates move below group rate.
7) Billing responsibility matrix
Separate master account items from attendee-pay items.
Standardize these once, then execute faster in Meetings.
Top next step
Use these clauses in your next active deal and document redlines by version.
If you want faster drafting + revision control, start with Meetings.
