@SCOREMentors @MediaplanetUSA Solo owners can save a lot of chasing by sending the invoice the same day the job wraps. Put the due date and payment link right in the first line so the client doesn't have to dig for it.

@SCOREMentors Small steps like these can make a big difference in protecting what you’ve worked so hard to build! 🛡️
