IndieOps sends your invoices, fires payment reminders, and follows up with clients automatically — so you stop doing admin and get back to billable hours.
Three things eat unbillable hours every week. IndieOps kills all three — automatically.
Tracking which client owes what, generating invoices, chasing late payments — it's a part-time job on top of your actual work. One missed follow-up costs you real money.
Prospects go cold. Clients disappear mid-project. You know you should follow up but never get around to it. Relationships slip because your brain is already overloaded.
Back-and-forth emails to book a 30-minute call. Rescheduling when conflicts come up. Sending reminders so clients actually show up. All manual. All tedious. All avoidable.
No spreadsheets. No manual chasing. No payment processor headaches.
Add a client, enter your line items, and IndieOps generates a professional invoice in seconds. Set it once for recurring work and it sends automatically every cycle.
Your client gets a clean, branded payment page — no login required, no friction. Late? IndieOps sends the follow-up reminders automatically so you don't have to.
Clients pay directly through Stripe. Money hits your account and IndieOps marks the invoice paid. Every payment is tracked. Your financials update in real time.
HoneyBook and Bonsai are CRM-heavy and expensive. Wave is free but manual. IndieOps is the one that actually automates the work.
