Frequently Asked Questions
How can I prevent a client from ghosting me when the final invoice is due?
Using a digital invoice system allows you to set automated reminders and require payment before delivering the final high-resolution files, keeping the leverage in your hands.
What is the best way to handle additional revision requests that weren't in the contract?
Digital invoicing makes it easy to add 'Scope Adjustment' line items in real-time, ensuring you get paid for every extra hour of work before the project continues.
How do I ensure I have steady cash flow during a long 6-month book project?
Break your project into monthly or chapter-based milestones on your digital invoice; this ensures regular payments hit your account instead of waiting for one uncertain payday at the end.
