Deposits On Jobs

16425 Views 15 Replies 13 Participants Last post by  Ken S.
Hi All,
My question is on taking a deposit for a job. I understand that the idea of a deposit is so if the person backs out of a job at least by taking a deposit you can recoup your paint costs and possibly a days loss in pay. Correct? Also what do most do if the customer asks for the deposit back?
Thanks.
