<b>Today's term: Net 30, Net 60, Net 90</b>

"Net 30" sounds technical. It just answers one question: when does the money actually land?

<b>What it is</b> — Net 30 means the brand pays within 30 days of getting your invoice. Net 60 is 60 days. Net 90 is three months.

<b>Why it matters</b> — you might post today and not see cash until next quarter. Big brands often default to Net 60 or 90.

<b>Simple example</b> — invoice a $500 deal on June 1 with Net 60, and you're paid around August 1. Plan your rent accordingly.

<b>Your move</b> — counter with "Net 15" or ask for 50% upfront. Even getting to Net 30 cuts your wait in half.
