Last week I invoiced a $500 retainer client and they paid 2 days early
Been working with this guy for 6 months, always pays on the 30th. He sent the money on the 28th with a note saying he appreciated my quick turnarounds. Now I'm wondering if I should bump my rate for him or risk scaring him off.

Oh man, is this really something to overthink? He paid two days early with a nice note. That's like the bare minimum of being a decent client. Bumping his rate over that seems like a good way to turn a chill situation into an awkward one. I'd just enjoy the easy money and not mess with it.

The bare minimum would be paying on time with no communication at all, so two days early with a nice note is actually a little above that. Seems like a decent guy trying to be courteous, not someone who needs a rate hike for being slightly better than average. Idk, maybe just appreciate the easy transaction and move on.
