I want to ask about whether I can charge a term difference since I give business credit to customers.

I have experience with this, gotta say: applying term difference depends on a few factors. Gather the data first, don't make emotional decisions.

But what's the real risk? Will the business close if this choice is wrong? I'm saying this so you're very careful.

Another perspective: maybe the core issue with applying term difference is something else. Think about it like this...

my perspective changed after expeirencing that then tbh any unwritten clause becomes a point of disagreement later, as both sides remember it differently.

I went through the same thing two years ago. Changing habits is harder and more expensive than setting up a system.

My questions are cleared up, thanks. Finding a new customer is more expensive than keeping an existing one.

Just leaving this note, it might be useful.

Following. anyway everything goes well for the first three months; problems arise in the fourth.

If I were you I'd go this route.

My perspective changed after experiencing that. Splitting your budget without knowing where you're losing users is just throwing money in the dark.

I felt relieved reading this answer, so it's not just me. When you try to change everything at once, nothing settles.

I think it's hard to be that definitive about applying term difference. Splitting your budget without knowing where you're losing users is just throwing money in the dark.

Solutions that work at a small scale collapse when you grow; I learned this late.

We need to take it step by step. Changing habits is harder and more expensive than setting up a system.

I've been down this road, let me tell you. The answer varies greatly by industry; there is no one-size-fits-all rule.

This is my opinion, I'm not claiming it's absolute truth.
