What to do when a customer doesn't pay?

Assume they forgot — most late payers aren't dodging you.
Nudge on the due date. Short and friendly.
No reply in a few days? Follow up, a bit firmer.
Two weeks late → final notice is coming, say so.
A month late → send it, name the escalation date.
Before escalating, call. Emails get ignored, calls don't.
Business client? You may be owed statutory interest — mention it.
Still stuck → weigh small claims vs. writing it off.

I built job management software for solo tradespeople

Not another generic invoicing tool. Think Tradify, Jobber, or ServiceM8, but stripped down and built specifically for someone working solo. Most of the big tools are priced and designed for teams, so as a one person operation you end up paying for and dealing with a bunch of features you will never use.

What SoloDesks does:

-Quoting and invoicing, PDF and online, unlimited without signup, though earnings are not tracked in that mode.

-Before and after photo option on invoices.

-Job scheduling, client and address management, and earnings tracking.

-Nine free tools with no signup needed, including a VAT calculator, CIS calculator, and markup or day rate calculator.

-Free professional work email.

-Automatic late payment chasing.
Lead capture.

-Public profile, this is the one I am most excited about, since it helps you show up on Google Maps and local search, and clients can book you directly through it.

No payment processing, no fees, no cut of your invoices. You can also use it as a small team if needed, without the usual admin overhead or internal conflicts of team software.

It is a brand new project so there will be rough edges. Genuinely looking for feedback, good or bad. Free Pro plan for six months if you join the waitlist now

I built a management software serving solo tradesmen for free up to year but earlybird only

If you work for yourself in a UK trade (plumber, electrician, painter, carpenter, tiler, landscaper, cleaner, handyman) and your quotes currently happen in Word, on paper, or on an app priced per seat for a firm with staff, I'd like to work with you.

Straight answer before anyone asks: I'm a software developer, not a tradesman, and I'm not British. That is exactly why I want ten real users instead of another month of my own guesses.

What it does today:

• Build an itemised quote on your phone at the customer's door and send it as a proper PDF.

• Customer taps Accept on a private link. The accepted quote becomes an invoice without retyping it.

• Chases overdue invoices on its own, under your business name, with replies coming to you.

• Reminds you before Gas Safe, insurance or the MOT lapses.

• Day by day job calendar with client addresses and route planning.

The free plan is live right now: 10 quotes and 10 invoices a month, no card. The paid tier is not open for signups yet, which is the honest reason for this post.

I'm after 10 people willing to run real jobs through it and tell me plainly what is broken.

In return:

Free access to the paid tier when it opens. One month for joining, up to six.
A direct line to me. I am the only person building this.
Your feedback decides what gets built next, instead of me deciding on my own.
Nothing to pay, and no card form to fill in.
If you quote and invoice for yourself every week, comment here or join at solodesks.com/waitlist and I'll reply in the thread.

I'd rather be corrected by ten tradespeople than ship another feature I invented by myself.

I build a free invoice generator aimed at UK sole traders and small trades.

I built a free invoice generator for UK sole traders and small trades.

Fill in the form, download the PDF, send it. No account, no card, no email needed. The PDF is made in your browser, so nothing you type gets uploaded anywhere.

It does invoices or quotes, itemised parts and labour, your bank details for payment, notes and terms, and invoice numbering.

What it doesn't do yet: VAT. There's no VAT rate box or VAT number field, so if you're VAT registered you'd have to add that line yourself. Working on it.

Full disclosure: I'm the developer. The generator is free and stays free. If anything is confusing or missing, tell me and I'll fix it.
