Professional ServicesInvoicing & Billing3MediumOwner$ implied

A business owner struggles with a client who consistently delays paying an overdue invoice despite professional follow-ups, feeling their contract terms aren't strict enough to enforce timely payments.

The business owner's current contract terms (7-day payment window with 1.5% monthly late fee) are perceived as insufficient leverage to ensure timely payments, and manual email follow-ups are ineffective against clients who provide escalating excuses.
