We need to add this distracting thing to it
because the law says so:
You agree that you will pay for all products you purchase through the Services, and that Apple may
charge your payment method for any products purchased and for any additional amounts (including
any taxes and late fees, as applicable) that may be accrued by or in connection with your Account.
YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE TIMELY PAYMENT OF ALL FEES AND FOR PROVIDING
APPLE WITH A VALID PAYMENT METHOD FOR PAYMENT OF ALL FEES. For details of how
purchases are billed please visit support.apple.com/kb/HT5582.
Your total price will include the price of the product plus any applicable sales tax; such sales tax is
based on the bill-to address and the sales tax rate in effect at the time you download the product.
We will charge tax only in states where digital goods are taxable.

11. 5. It’s a LOT to HANDLE
• It’s a team process.
• Many minds, many questions.
Why content strategy?
What strategy is best?
Who can do what?
What is wrong with it now?
But really, the real question is:
Can we do it together?
