Create master project w/ smart recurring invoices
Q
Quinn Ballard
• Create a "master" project rate
• Input smart recurring invoice parameters (this could look a lot of ways – see below)
• Hectic does all the math and we can be hands-off
What could this look like?
We input: $6,425 project rate. 30% due to initiate project, invoice client 4 more times, three weeks apart
OR
Input: $7,750 total project rate, 50% deposit, 25% when project status = X, final 25% when project status = files delivered
OR
Provide client with options for payment (5% off if paid in full up front, pay over 12 months w/ 15% added to project rate, pay 6 equal payments for 6 consecutive months to equal entire project rate)
These smart payment options could start small + simple yet still be powerful enough to give a variety of options that are a win for both Hectic users and clients.

Most of my projects are percentage/milestone driven. This would be ideal

This could be an killer API in itself. Set up the payment rules up front and everything runs automatically behind the scenes. It wouldn't be for everyone, but it would be something that makes Hectic stand out as the easiest + most powerful invoicing software company around. It would give freelancers room to grow into hectic (as they grow their business), instead of hectic offering too few options and freelancers having to figure out workarounds.
