RE: UKNM: RE: ...Ad Agencies

[Leslie Bunder]

I think that as the industry starts to mature (are we mature yet???), that

better financial controls will be in plasce to avoid serious issues of

cashflow problems.


I agree the point of putting it in escrow is a good idea, otherwise good 'ol

50% upfront, 25% on completion and then 25% within 28 days of completion

should keep everyone happy...


But all online businesses if they are to survive really do need to manage

their cashflows and make sure they have some good financial managers.
