For your business to be a success you must have a
responsibility to your clients or you won’t have
any contracts and your business will fail. Try
not to make it a habit of using excuses like you
are sick or a family member is sick, although
your clients do understand that sometimes things
happen this is unprofessional. Even though you
are working at home and can somewhat set your own
hours, you must be cognizant of the needs of your
clients and understand they depend upon timely
billing in order to expect the patients to pay on
time. If billing is done when it suits you, the
patients don’t get bills on time, and thus your
clients aren’t paid. The sooner you process the
billing, the sooner you will be paid from your
clients.
You must communicate with your clients. If an
illness or some other unforeseen circumstance
arises to cause a project delay let your client
know and give a timeframe for completion. If you
are ill, you may not be able to determine when
you will be able to work again, but let your
client know you will be in touch the next day.
Continue to keep them abreast of the situation
until you are well. Consider involving a family
member in your business just in case something
prevents you from working for a few days or to
allow you some vacation time. Having a backup
will always keep your clients’ work processed in
a timely manner.
Be sure you always understand a new clients
instructions and how they want you to handle
their account. This is the initial phase of an
account setup and you want to make certain that
you understand and ask any questions at this
time. If you are working in the evenings for a
new client you may want to process their work
during the day in case any questions develop that
you forgot to ask initially. This allows you to
call them during regular business hours rather
than leaving them waiting another day while you
clarify instructions. If you aren’t sure of what
they meant do not guess. Send them an email or
contact them by telephone.
