Watched my buddy almost lose a huge freelance project last year because he didn't ask for a deposit. The client kept pushing the start date, then ghosted him for weeks after the work was outlined. He finally started requiring 30% down after that mess, says it filters out the time-wasters immediately.

Actually 50% upfront works better for filtering.

emery290 gets it, deposits just make the whole thing run smoother.
