I got stiffed once and I swore that it would NEVER happen again--and it didn't!
That's because I created a contract that guaranteed I got paid AND locked clients into paying me a never-ending stream of royalties.
If you don't have a contract that protects you from those who would rip you off, check out mine. I spent over $10,000 creating it and I'm practically giving it away.
The reason is simple:
I don't want to see any of my brother or sister freelancers get ripped off
either. Forget letter agreements. They mean nothing!
A REAL contract spells out how much you get paid, when you get paid, penalties for not paying you time, and the legal venue where all disputes are settled--your
hometown.
And MINE spells out I OWN YOUR COPY--not them--and I licensed it to them! You are going to love it. Here's why:
You see, if they don't pay, you pull the license and I have
the legal apparatus set up in advance to move that forward.
Once I put this contract in place, I never got ripped off again.
Of course, no contract in the world will keep people from trying to rip you off. But it does offer something that a letter agreement or a project start memo does not:
A legal contract that not only puts everyone on the same page from day one but also protections that could help guarantee you get paid.
If you've ever been stiffed before or you're client is dragging their feet on paying you, be sure to check out mine.
