invoice wording
22 Answers
I have done some work for a slightly lower fee on the understanding that when they make more money from the project, I will be paid the rest.
on the invoice i want to add the fee payable immediately but also the deferred fee.
there is a slight chance I won't get anything as it may not make enough money (pretty sure it will, but you never know eh?)
so i cant write a set date or any sort of deadline etc
I just want some wording that makes it clear that there are 2 amounts payable and one will be paid first and that the other will be considered ongoing until such time as they make enough cash.
i did consider a separate invoice, but thught maybe itd be better to keep the agreement all on one so it cannot 'go missing', or be signed off as paid etc...?
thanks

> they are a newish small company and i dont know how good they are at keeping books etc and having 'events that trigger payment'.
An example of an "event" for them would be "received some income from film x". This should trigger "check if person a, b or c need paying".
If they can't do that, then they shouldn't really have contracts that are paid on that basis. I would think they could do it.
Even if they can do it, in your place I'd be calling regularly to see if I'm owed more money and whether I should be invoicing more.
