Invoice tip: send it before you leave the driveway
Jordan's tip · Thursday, October 15 · SelfOperate daily tips

The takeaway: The job isn't finished until the invoice is sent.

Do this today:
[ ] Send the invoice from your phone before you leave the job.
[ ] Write a real due date (“Due October 24”), not just “Net 30”.
[ ] Add a pay-now link and every way you accept money.
