Love your work and get paid for doing it

Important stages to getting paid for freelance work. 

Stages

Client interest/Contract

Take a view of the client brief

Discuss the brief with client to understand required content and outcomes

Evaluation and estimation of timeframe and content expected at a rate per hour or project

Remember to add on costs of extra materials 

Itemize and estimate all the content needed and timings 

Request an order number to apply to the invoice, rather than a name to send work off have a specific order number to link your work to there accounts. Client should respect this and should link to there accounts department or marketing department. 

Before you start get 50% upfront and purchase order number.

Invoice needs to include date, order number, reference number, banking details and itemized elements (what stages I have done)
