inThat stat about 70% of small businesses failing because of cash flow issues finally got me to switch from net-30 to upfront payment for my dog grooming gigs.
Totally get that @the_felix, it's like that thing where you realize half the 'professional' stuff we do is just making life harder for no reason. Maybe it's just me but I swear once you drop the fear of looking pushy about money, everyone else relaxes too.
