How To Win Disputes ๐ฏ๐๐ป
One of the most stressful things that can happen to a small business owner:
A customer disputes a charge with their bank.
Then, the money you earned is frozen! :(
You now have a limited window to respond.
And... if you don't have documentation, you lose even if you did everything right (provided the service / product).
This happens more than people talk about. Has it ever happned to you?
For small businesses without a system, it's often a loss before the fight even starts...
Thats why it's important to have terms and condition checkboxes during online checkout or noted details on invoices that are paid.
Agreements that are signed off on won't hurt as well. These help create accountability for both parties (you and them).
Getting paid is hard enough. Defending what you earned shouldn't have to be also.
This dispute took us almost 4 months to recover funds from...
It's not a huge amount, but it is the pricnciple of the matter. We provided the services and work and deserved to be paid.
Have you ever dealt with a payment dispute? How did it go?
