mrr normalises, always. an annual plan contributes its price divided by twelve for each of those twelve months, regardless of when the money arrived. keep cash collected as a completely separate line, because those two numbers answer different questions and merging them produces a chart that is useless for both.

Used ergonomic chairs at 400 are genuinely good value if you can find one locally and sit in it first. But do the height maths before you spend — if the answer is that the desk needs to be lower, the chair is not your constraint.
The camera is on my list and I have been arguing with myself about it for a week. That settles it unless the argument is really about photography rather than travel.
Weigh the whole thing packed before you commit, because that is where people get caught. A hard case is heavy empty, and once clubs, shoes and the towels everyone stuffs in there go in, you can be flirting with the standard checked bag limit and paying an overweight fee on both legs of every trip. A soft cover is a few kilos lighter empty, which is the entire margin. Most airlines these days treat a golf bag as a normal checked bag rather than special sports baggage, but the European carrier on your second trip may not, so check that specific airline's page before you book.
Check the armrests. If they are too low your shoulders hang all day and the traps take the load, which builds up on exactly this timescale. Mine were about 3cm too low and raising them changed my afternoons.
Minimum sequence: enrol in the Apple Developer Program at 99 USD a year, log in with eas credentials so it can talk to your account, then run a build with the internal distribution profile and let it generate the distribution certificate and provisioning profile for you. For your own phone you register the device first so its identifier lands in the profile, and eas has a command that gives you a QR code to do that from the phone. For TestFlight you build with the store profile and submit, and TestFlight is included in the 99 rather than an extra cost.
Book the timed entries before you book anything else, because several of the best things now need a reservation released a fixed number of days ahead and they go quickly. That has applied to sunrise at the Maui crater, the popular snorkel bay on Oahu, and the state park on the Hana road in recent years, but the rules have been tweaked more than once so check each park's own site rather than a blog. Put the release dates in your calendar with an alarm; that single habit has saved every Hawaii trip I have planned.
How do you phrase it so it does not sound like an upsell?
Look at the total tax line, not the refund line. That is the number the credit eats. Everything else is bookkeeping.
Eleven months for me, and the day it happened had nothing to do with the product. I stopped waiting for people to upgrade and started emailing the twenty most active free users one at a time asking what they were using it for. Four replied, two of those calls turned into a request for something I could build in a week, and one of them paid before I built it. Nobody had upgraded in eleven months because nobody had ever been asked. Your 300 signups are not a failure, they are a list you are not using.
The support tail is what surprises everyone. It scales with customers rather than with effort, so the more it sells the less passive it becomes until you write better docs. Budget a weekend on documentation around customer fifty and it drops back down.
Push back on the fitting mattering for what you are describing. Torso length and a load-carrying suspension are decisive when a pack is heavy and you are wearing it for six hours on a trail. For a 35 to 40 litre travel bag carried between a train and a hotel, most of those bags have a fairly flat panel harness with limited adjustment, and what will actually determine whether you like it is the opening style, whether the laptop sleeve is accessible, and whether it stands up on its own. Those you can judge at home.
A tenkeyless keyboard as a shoulder fix is not a connection I would ever have made.
Separate the plugin disaster from the pricing lesson. That one was bad luck and a contingency line covers it. The content delay and the extra language are scope, and scope is a contract problem rather than an estimating problem.
Three weeks is also short. Some soreness while you adapt to a new load is expected, but there is a difference between adaptation soreness that eases and a consistent ache in the same place getting worse. Yours sounds like the second, so back the dose off rather than pushing through it.
And answer their actual question in the first line. Most proposals open with a paragraph about the freelancer while the client is scanning for whether you understood the brief.
The three or four ways framing is the one that stuck for me. Perfect posture as a target lasted about a week before I gave up on it.
