Buy the diagnostic

Send this and you get the invoice back

1. Which tier — simulation, machine shop, or fleet.
2. One pain, in a sentence. Not a list.
3. The data you already have for it, and roughly how much of it there is.
4. Your deadline you are working back from.

I reply with the scope, the price and the invoice. If the pain is not one I can diagnose in two weeks from data you already hold, I say so before you spend anything. That is not a sales technique — it is the only way two weeks stays true.

That link pre-fills the four questions above. One reply comes back with the scope, the price and the invoice — or a straight no if the work is not a two-week diagnostic.

Or by bank transfer — the full amount, no fee

A bank account exists and it is deposit-only, so the full $1,500 arrives with nothing deducted. Payee: Schubert Motors LLC. Routing and account numbers are on the invoice issued to you — they are never published on a web page. Ask me for the invoice and they come with it.

Confirm the payee name with me by email before you send. A transfer whose name does not match the account is rejected by the bank. My invoice and my W-9 carry the same name — ask for it and match it character for character.

Or pay instantly by app — $0 fee, lands in seconds

Send straight to the app for a deposit or any smaller amount. No fee on my side, no waiting for a cheque to clear, and it reaches me today.

Confirm the handle with me by email before you send. App payments are instant and irreversible — no cheque to stop, no chargeback to dispute. A handle is not identity: anyone can type one. One line of confirmation protects us both.

Owner-provided handles, not yet independently verified. Keep the payment memo short or blank — a long invoice memo can be filtered.

Or print and send

Checks are made payable to Evan Allyn Schubert and mailed to the street address above. There is no office and no PO box — use a mailing address you actually receive at.

What it costs me to receive your payment: nothing

The account already exists and it is deposit-only, so the full $1,500 arrives with nothing deducted. No cashing desk is involved, and no percentage is charged to you or to me.

If your finance team prefers, a third-party cheque deposit into an account you already hold usually works fine — and it is free.

What most companies ask for on a first invoice

1. A W-9. Blank IRS Form W-9 (Rev. March 2024) — fill in, sign, return. Nothing else on it is filled in.
2. An engagement letter or SOW. One page, already drafted — scope, milestones, price, signature block. Only the client name and date are blank.
3. A deposit. $750, by check, before any work starts. The invoice PDF has the schedule and the remit-to block.

I do not have a corporate banking relationship yet, so every payment route that needs one is off the table — and that is exactly why a check works. Nothing here asks you to set anything up.
