..or buy a $25.oo bat

On all my paperwork, it reads " Payment due upon completion of work. After 15 days, 10% late fee will be applied. Monthly interest of 2.5% applied after 30 days." Most pay right away.

I think I'm going to add something like that..... I had one company write on the paperwork that payment would be made 14 days after the job was done... well, that's come and gone and no check.

I like it!

This is on my proposal and invoices. They sign the bottom of the proposal, which has contractual text, which also binds them to my terms.

just make everyone pay upon completion. i due work for the county and state and they pay with company credit card that day.

Another option for those who don't pay is to file theft of services charges.
Auto repair shops have signs in the shop and wording on the R.O. that states a Mechanics Lein will be placed on the vehicle, and the vehicle will be subject to reposession if paid by check and the check bounces.
At the very least, a tint bus. could place a Mechanics Lein on the vehicle with the State, you get paid before they can sell or trade the vehicle.

Call, call, call, drop in ,call, drop in....
or just get a conract upfront and enforce it.

also if they do not want to sign the contract, its because they do not want to pay!
