Polite, structured billing schedules that protect client relationships while ensuring your receivables are collected on time.
Protecting Cash Flow in Contracting Businesses
Late payments and uncollected progress draws are among the top causes of cash flow strain for trade businesses. Having a structured administrative follow-up process ensures invoices get paid promptly without awkward owner confrontation.
Best Practices for Contractor Invoicing:
- Milestone-Based Billing Schedules: Clear deposit, rough-in, and final completion payment terms stated upfront.
- Automated & Polite Reminder Sequences: Sending courteous reminder notes 3 days before due date, on the due date, and 5 days post-due.
- Prompt Receipt Acknowledgments: Reassuring clients as soon as payments are cleared.
