Back when I did IT consulting, I got better returns by bumping up the base rate and offering them 20% discount if they paid on the day the work was done, 15% if within 7 days, and and 10% if within 14 days.

Some customers will whine and moan about late fees and try to weasel out even if they're in the contract, but if you offer discounts for quicker payment, suddenly they're running after you to pay right away. At least in my experience.

Didn't think on that, thank you
