Decide how the project will be funded
Set the amount, payment path and release point before the freelancer starts. A predictable process means the work is not held hostage by a last-minute accounts-payable surprise.
Keep records with the project
Store the brief, approved scope, delivery links and key decisions together. If either side has a question later, the project record is more useful than a scattered chain of reminders.
