When it comes to getting paid as a freelancer, the speed of payment can vary greatly.
While most freelancers give clients two to four weeks to pay an invoice once it is sent, the reality is that many invoices are paid after they are due. According to a recent survey, 29% of invoices were paid after they were due.
Fortunately, most late invoices are paid within a reasonable timeframe. Over 75% of late invoices were paid within 14 days of the due date, and 90% were paid within a month. This means that most freelancers will receive payment for their work within a month of sending the invoice.
Of course, there are some clients who take longer than the average to pay their invoices. If you find yourself in this situation, it is important to stay on top of your invoices and follow up with clients who are late in paying. You can also consider setting up a payment plan or offering a discount for early payment.
Overall, most freelancers can expect to get paid within a month of sending an invoice. However, there are some clients who take longer than the average to pay their invoices. If you find yourself in this situation, it is important to stay on top of your invoices and follow up with clients who are late in paying.
