How do you handle clients that pay invoices late?
Ran into this recently and wanted to sanity check how others deal with it.
A client missed the payment deadline on an invoice. Not a huge amount, but enough to be annoying. I sent a polite follow up and they paid geometry vibes, but it got me wondering how common this actually is.
Is late payment just part of running a small business?
Do you usually wait a few days before nudging them, automate reminders, charge late fees, or just build stricter terms into your agreements?
Trying to tighten up my processes so this doesn’t become a pattern.
