In the past when I have done terms I have given net 15 and after 90days they can move to a net 30 as long as there were no late payments. I do that just to get to know someone and there payment habits..

Short term projects(a few weeks): 50% up front the rest at completion Long term projects(around 2 or more months): 1/3 up front, 1/3 around mid way through and the rest at completion.
