Confidentiality, contracts, insurance, etc.?
Alternatively, you can onboard Scott as a vendor with your own payroll company or get invoices from him directly. He can accept payments via all the same methods as well as cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, bill on Net Negotiable terms, and report his work to the guild come tax season. Please note however that whenever billing directly as such, his late fees run compounding at 10% per 10 days overdue (Example: A $600 job on Net 30, if past due and fully unpaid as of Net 61-70, becomes an $800 job).
Avail-holds, releases, cancellations?
Occasionally, clients ask for sessions to be rescheduled. Full cancellations after casting has been finished, however, e.g. last-minute re-castings after sessions have already been fully negotiated and booked but not yet recorded, are extremely rare. In such cases, charges would be as follows: 50% of the respective session fee. Comparatively, in cases of re-castings or project cancellations after projects’ sessions have been recorded, their full session fees are due. In either scenario, separate content usage fees (if applicable) are waived.
