FAQ

How often should I send invoices?

It is best practice to invoice either upon the completion of a project milestone or on a recurring monthly schedule, depending on what was agreed upon in your contract.

What should I do if a client misses the due date?

Send a professional, friendly reminder email immediately following the due date. If the payment remains outstanding, refer to the late fee policy outlined in your original service agreement.

Should I include sales tax on my invoice?

Tax requirements vary by location and the type of service provided. Check with your local tax authority or a certified accountant to determine if you are required to collect sales tax.
