Weekly customers are often billed monthly for all the visits in that month, which keeps paperwork low and cash steady. One-off jobs such as a spring cleanup, aeration or a fertilizer round are priced as a separate line, because they are not part of the routine. Fertilizer and weed control are usually billed as seasonal programs in four to six rounds, either per round or as a prepaid package. If you send the same invoice to the same customer every month, [recurring invoices](https://jiffy-invoice.com/features/recurring-invoices) save you retyping it, and [payment reminders](https://jiffy-invoice.com/features/payment-reminders) catch the customers who forget. ## Tips to get paid faster 1. Bill monthly in advance or at month end instead of per visit. Fewer invoices means fewer chances for one to be forgotten. 2. Put the visit dates in the description or project field, so the customer can see exactly when you were there. 3. Keep extras on their own line. A cleanup that is clearly labeled does not look like a price increase. 4. Set a short due date, such as 10 days, because the amounts are small and slow payment adds up across many customers. 5. Ask regulars to pay by card so you are not chasing small checks. A payment link on the invoice makes that one tap, see [online payments](https://jiffy-invoice.com/features/online-payments). ## Common invoice mistakes - Sending one big invoice for the whole season with no breakdown of visits - Changing the per-visit price without telling the customer first - Mixing taxable and non-taxable services without checking the rules in your state ## Questions ### What goes on a lawn care invoice?
