Getting paid without chasing customers

Late payment isn't usually about a customer refusing to pay — it's about paying being inconvenient, or simply forgotten. Make it easy and automatic, and most of the chasing disappears on its own.

• Send a professional invoice the moment work is agreed, not after it's finished.
• Offer at least one instant payment option — mobile money or card — not bank transfer only.
• Put a due date on every invoice. "Whenever" gets paid whenever.
• Let automatic reminders do the follow-up, not your memory.

This is exactly what StoreDrop's invoicing and credit book handle for you: invoices that get sent, tracked, and quietly followed up — so you spend your time on the work, not the awkward reminder text.
