Payment & Invoicing Terms: (updated Oct. 2007 )

• I require that clients sign my Work Agreement before I begin work; it simply states that we have agreed on an hourly rate and billing cycle, that I am working as an independent contractor (1099), not an employee and ensures my confidentiality.
• Estimates are just that, estimates only, based on the Client's representations, and the Client will be charged, and will be responsible to pay, for the actual time spent on the Client's project.
• Rates are subject to change. Written notice will be provided to existing clients.
• Invoices are submitted via e-mail or fax. Payment is due upon receipt. $30 return check fee applies on all returned checks. Past due accounts are subject to late fees and/or work stoppage.
• Hours are billed in 30 minute increments using QuickBooks Pro timer.
• After the initial consultation all phone conversations are billable time. I prefer e-mails for work requests and questions.
• New clients may be required to submit a 25% down payment via PayPal before work can begin.
• Expenses are added to the hourly rate on your invoice. Expenses are items such as purchases made on your behalf, travel time and expenses, special projects requiring outside printing or custom paper stock, long distance charges incurred on your behalf, postal and express shipping costs, etc. I do not markup such items, I simply pass my cost on to you.
• I do not require that my clients meet a monthly minimum of hours, the idea is that I am here when you need me. As long as your account with me stays in good standing, I will be willing to work with you during the slow and busy times.

Payment Options:

I accept checks , e-checks and credit cards.

• Payments by check should be made payable to "Rhonda Behnken". You can also make payments using your checking account via PayPal.com.
• Credit Card payments accepted via PayPal.com, click on the PayPal logo to submit a payment to Rhonda Behnken.
