Me: Whats the deadline?

Client: Asap

Me: And when are we getting paid?

Client: 30 days after you give us the invoice ☺

Haha. You can see their priorities 😀

How's about 50% upfront and the software will be released once the other 50% clears 😎

@GinjaNinja Exactly.

@deadpool88 Shit would change very quickly!

Don't let the client decide when you get paid for work that's already completed. Always use a payment contract that outlines when and how much is to be paid. Then, if you have to go to court, you have proof of the agreement and there's a higher likelihood of it being enforced.

@sheeponmeth keep the product hostage until you get paid and threaten to sell it to a different client if they don't 😈

@ElectricCoffee Oooo! Me likey... although, you would bite yourself in the ass if you signed an NDA!

@GinjaNinja a client that dumb probably doesn't know what the d in NDA means :P

Actually, i ve been more aggressive on upfront payment and cutting the bullshit asap and you know what? Clients take you more seriously and you have the upper hand till end.

So invoice today and deliver in 31 days :)

Glad I'm a web dev. when I do projects on the side of work, I host the site on my server, and tell the client I can move it to their servers once payment clears.

30d << devtime, not an issue

@yusijs Exactly!!
"Now what mutherfucker? Paytime !!"
