If you’re working on a major project or are doing several smaller projects for one client that add up to major charges, put a cap on how much outstanding debt the client can carry.
-
I personally put a $500 cap on my clients so that when their total bill exceeds that amount, they will need to make an interim payment to bring it under or face work suspension.
-
You have the option to waive this cap if you have a long-standing relationship with a trusted client who pays on time and in full.
-
Spell it out in the agreement: no spec work.
-
Set a minimum rate for work done that is immediately refused and where the client does not wish to allow you to continue.
-
It should be stipulated that work that is refused by the client cannot be used in whole or in part.
-
You may also want to consider retaining rights to utilize the work in a repertoire or portfolio for future promotion while the client retains all other major usage rights.
-
Otherwise, you can make a provision where files or assets for a project are turned over to the client to be continued by someone else and billed for the work done up to that point.

Mark FreundA timely resource for me. I'll certainly be taking a few pointer from this article and updating my Terms of Service.
