First freelance job. Any tips on contracts?
Encosia: Dealing with small companies, I usually start by suggesting a simple NDA to protect them and make them feel safe.  If they don't want more, I skip the administrivia and we move on to solving their problems.It's been my experience that you're a lot better off being informal about the legalese and just invoicing as often as you can (bi-weekly at longest).Companies without a legal department generally appreciate being able to do business in a straightforward manner.
