                  It's not free for ever, only for the length of your first contract, so it is a marketing ploy to build up a client base.
                  "The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance." Cicero

                    Hi Waldorf. Actually that is not the case. It will stay free for a considerable time, probably in the order of between 6 months and a year. At which point we will agree with our clients a suitable level of charge and at that time we will honour all existing customers as free until their contract expires. Even then you can come and go as you like with no commitment. So if you sign with Springboard on a 12 month contract now you are guaranteed no charges until at least after that first 12 months, then you can go to another umbrella if you dont think Springboard is worth paying for. By contract you could have 6 or 9 one month contracts at no charge before we even start to charge a penny. Can't say fairer than that can we?
