when you place an order get the order takers name
any changes to the job like now they want it to be black if there is a price change make a note have he she sign for change
get 50% up front the other 50% before you ship or handover your work
Cash is King
one thing never sell,, give away, or reduce the price, on anything you made that is substandard .
and there is a ton more but keep the job# and name with the job
one thing when the job is ready to start you have all the parts you need that's when you can hang the clip board on the wall
sorry one more thing keep very close tabs on your time have a time sheet for each job not for others to see just you.
