LET’S START WITH THE BASICS…
YOUR COMPLIANCE TO THESE RULES WILL IMPACT BOTH YOUR
INCOME AND YOUR CASH‐FLOW FOR AS LONG AS YOU'RE IN BUSINESS.
THE BASIC RULES
‐ Get the quote, engagement agreement, and invoice out as fast as
possible (with payment link). Quotes don’t age well.
‐ Start no work until the signed agreement and the retainer is in (This
doesn’t include quote research).
‐ Keep an eye on your hours. Stop working when the retainer is used
up.
QUALITY CHECK ALL REPORTS:
No report goes out without at least two sets of eyes looking at it. Triple
check spelling, grammar, opinions, and layout. No report goes out
without it being perfect.
