At Thesis Writing Cafe, we believe in structured academic development and transparent communication. The delivery of the First Draft is a key milestone in our process, allowing you to review, reflect, and refine your academic work with our support.
What is the First Draft?
The First Draft is the preliminary version of your document, prepared according to:
- The approved mind map
- Shared university or institutional guidelines
- The scope and deliverables outlined in the Statement of Work (SOW)
This draft gives you the opportunity to assess how well the work aligns with your expectations and allows for essential feedback before finalization.
Key Guidelines for First Draft Delivery
- Timeline
The draft is delivered within the timeline agreed upon in the SOW, starting from the official Work Confirmation Date. - Client Review Window
Upon receiving the first draft, clients are expected to review and share comments within three calendar days. Timely feedback ensures your complimentary revision is honored. - Comment Submission
- All feedback should be consolidated into a single document.
- Use inline comments or margin notes.
- Edits made directly within the text will be ignored or considered additional work.
- Scope Adherence
The first draft will reflect only the approved mind map and committed deliverables.- Any missing line items must be reported immediately upon first draft review.
- Once the project progresses to the next stage, unreported gaps are considered delivered.
- Complimentary Revision Policy
You are entitled to one complimentary revision, which will incorporate the comments shared from the first draft.- Revisions must stay within the original scope and approved mind map.
- Any changes or additional requests outside the initial commitment may be charged separately.
Best Practices for Reviewing Your Draft
- Cross-check with the Mind Map: Ensure all committed topics and sections are covered.
- Be Specific: Clearly state which sections need improvement and why.
- Stay Within Scope: For a smooth revision process, restrict feedback to what was agreed upon.
What Happens Next?
After receiving your comments:
- Our team will make the necessary revisions based on your feedback.
- Once the revised draft is submitted, it is considered the final version unless additional paid revisions are requested.
