Job Cancelled by text

Or alternatively getting paid for materials once delivered to site.....Or get a pro-forma invoice made up from supplier to show customer, (customer rates obviously, not yours!), so that they know materials have been placed on order.

clients already paid for the materials and they are on site

just text them back no problem i will drop the invoice of on Monday. they will get in touch with you to find out what the invoice is for and you can tell them it is for the discount and the consultation fees

Personaly, I think to expect payment in full for work not done is totaly unrealistic and unfair.

I dont think you would have a leg to stand on in this case.

If anything a cancelation fee would be more suitable if agreed prior to accpetance of the quote.

As Kilty mentioned, a deposit would be great. Tell them this is a booking fee and will not be returned if job is cancelled. You may choose to offer a timescale in which they can cancel though to be fair.

Saying that, these kinds of business/scare tactics can put potential customers off and will not always project the best image for your customers in the domestic market.
