For instance, consider implementing &#8216;Due on Receipt&#8217; or &#8216;Net-7&#8217; terms instead of the traditional &#8216;Net-30&#8217; terms. This can significantly speed up your cash flow.<\/p><p style=\"margin-bottom: 0px !important;\">It&#8217;s also beneficial to discuss these terms with your clients before you start work.
