    What's the etiquette for asking "where's my check"?
    I did work in June and invoiced on July, 1st. The terms were NET 30 and I haven't seen a check. It's officially only been 32 days and I don't want to come off as desperate and pushy because I would like to work with them again.

    • Just ask, politely. It's not 'desperate' to ask for monies owed on good work done. I tend to get an apology every time I ask favoured clients for payment.Nairn
    • Have an 'accounts' email address set up and send an automatic 'payment due' email. Depending on how much they know about you and your set up...Wolfboy
    • ...you don't even need to have your own name on it. It's just a business thing, no desperation on you behalf.Wolfboy
    • "May I ask you to look into invoice xxxx, please?" is usually about as much effort as I put into things.Nairn
    • If they don't pay you, you don't want to work with again.gonzalle
