A Sign of Things to Come?

[Sandbox Sally]

Ok so at hubby's prompting, I sent an email out today. Kinda went like this,

"Hi Blahblah,

Just a reminder about payment for ___'s care. I work on a weekly pay schedule. Payment is due the week before attendance (as per contract). I require payment this Thur for (DATES) and for next weeks care as well, so that we can continue working together. The total due is ___. Thanks so much and I look forward to seeing you and ___ again."

UGH! Why do I feel badly asking for something that is due to me?

It's a crappy feeling but not cool as these parents are the ones at fault for making you feel this way. If she doesn't make payment 1st thing tomorrow have a chat with her. Peoplle have more respect for us when we draw clear lines.

Good luck if you don't speek up they will walk all over you. Remember your the boss of your home business!

Keep us posted and good luck!
