1) Always source revision your code, free private repos are available at bitbucket.
2) Never work without compensation
3) Preferably make a contract
4) Agree to incremental delivery or milestones
5) Prepare regular invoices
6) Follow up on outstanding invoices
7) be strict about getting paid, on time, or fire the client
You may be good at what you do, but that doesn't help if you screw up the business part of freelancing.
- treenyc 13y agoHey thanks a lot Pyalot. We do have a contract, and the owner really knows about it. The cash just have to pay for some urgent expenses at the moment. Yeah, it was my fault for not git push origin after the backup server was restored. But the shutdown introduced a few problem in the work flow, and I just got lazy and didnät do the system admin stuff and just kept on programming. A lesson well learned.
