New Feature: Partial Payments!
As any experienced consultant knows, payment terms can often be one of the final negotiating points before beginning work with a client. Payment terms usually come down to a reasonably balanced agreement between a client and a provider, where the provider needs a little "getting started" protection and the client pays as/when services are rendered.
We have been talking to some of our initial mavens and, to no surprise to us, one of the big comments has been, "to provide my services, I usually take an X% fee up front and then get milestone payments and/or full payment upon services being rendered." That comment is usually followed with the question, "do you support that?"
Well, as of today, we can say - yes we do! Mavenlink wants to get out of the way when it comes to terms and support the way our mavens and clients like to work. We think that allowing you to negotiate the terms that best fit your business and then support that through our payment system is the way to go.
Try it out and let us know how it's working!
