Re: Received $600 for a $1200 consulting gig: need advice

Well, you may be right, but the bottom line is, what should I DO?
SHould I email, call, send an invoice noting partial payment, etc?

I ask all clients to pay in advance of work because I do not want to
get stuck with collection issues, and because I otherwise cannot plan
my work schedule.

The work I do for this client is to find prospects for their
advertising work, ie mid-size companies needing collateral, media
buys, etc. This is a brand new account, and we are starting off on the
wrong foot.

Another fellow consultant suggested that I call him on this
immediately.  Again, I don't wish to alienate him but I feel alienated
myself, so it's becoming a "him or me" scenario.

Thanks for your input!
