Hey everyone, meet Jack 👋
Your workflow should also act as an insurance policy.
It starts with client due diligence. Is this a good client to work with or are there red flags? Statement of work. Is everyone on the same page about what work is to be done?
These are just a few suggestions to ensure your projects run better.

Some freelancers think insurance is pointless because their fees are small. If charging £500, they believe they don’t stand much to lose financially if it goes wrong. Our claims data shows the value of a claim is rarely relevant to the fees you receive for your work.

Clients ghosting doesn't mean you can't get paid. We can figure out next steps. This may be:
* credit control
* debt recovery through your legal expenses insurance
* small claims court
With this customer we used a combination of these methods which resulted in 82% of their invoice being paid.
