I used to send my invoices on the 1st of the month and it was killing my cash flow

For years I billed all my clients at once on the first, then waited 30 days to get paid. Last quarter I realized my bank account was always empty by the 15th because everything was due at the same time. The tip off was seeing a $0 balance while I still had $8,000 in outstanding invoices from that batch. Now I stagger my billing dates based on project completion. Has anyone else switched from a set billing day to a rolling schedule?

My old boss called that the first of the month cash flow trap, @joseph_bailey.
