Below are eight important points to consider including in an independent contractor agreement. Define a Scope of Work. Set a Timeline for the Project. Specify Payment Terms. State Desired Results and Agree on Performance Measurement. Detail Insurance Requirements. Include a Statement of Independent Contractor Relationship.
A contractor agreement should describe the scope of work, contract terms, contract duration, and the confidentiality agreement. It should also include a section for the two parties to sign and make the agreement official. If the contract doesnt meet these requirements, it may be inadmissible in a court of law.
But even if you dont use proposals, you can offer your own contract whenever youre working one-on-one with a client. If the client prefers to use their own contract, theyll surely tell you. And then you can negotiate which contract to use.
Cash basis. Many contractors choose the cash basis of accounting because bookkeeping is simple. Its easy to track money as it moves in and out of your bank account and you dont have to pay income tax on revenues until the money is actually in your possession.
