Do I need a contract
I will be contacting potential clients, that dont know me, via email. I will be offering them a service say that costs $500.00(it can be lower or higher).
I will be outsourcing this service, say the outsourcer cost is $250.00 and they want to be paid right away.
I am not sure how to handle this situation because I cold called/emailed this potential client but really they dont know me and if I ask for a deposit for the work they may think it is a scam.
I am worried if I dont get a contract or deposit, then pay this outsourcer out of my pocket, this potential client can just walk away from the deal and I am out the $250.
How would you handle this situation?
One a seperate note, I do have a paypal account but if someone wants to pay me how do I accept payment?
Thanks.
