Guaranteed-earnings promise
What this clause does
The agency promises you a specific income figure.
Why it hurts you
Nobody can guarantee earnings, and an agency writing this either knows it is unenforceable or intends the guarantee to come with conditions that make it meaningless. It is a sales tactic, and it correlates strongly with the agencies that later disappear.
What a fair version looks like
No earnings guarantees. Instead, concrete deliverables with dates.
Wording you can send back
Agency makes no representation as to earnings. Agency shall deliver the specific services listed in Schedule A.
Paste this into your reply. Asking for a specific change is far more effective than asking them to "soften" a clause.
