A big con is that one of my clients goes away and doesn't pay me before she goes out of town--I need my checks to arrive at a specific time to cover bills. I have a few other clients who have to be asked for payment twice...They never have to ask me to complete their work twice...My cash flow isn't steady; I get most of my checks at the end/beginning of the month--that leaves me two weeks without any money coming in--as a result, I've had to cut back a lot. I'd love to get a few new clients who can pay me in the middle of the month!
