I stopped accepting jobs from companies that do not pay within 30 days. Why should I wait when I know they get paid sooner that that? Any job I do with title companies, I get a check within 2 week. That gives any company out there 2 weeks to process their books. Send me my check. Companies that are not able to pay sooner, makes me wonder about their financial stability.
Non of us are working for free and waiting 45+ days seams like "free" to me. I remember I used to count those companies as "bonus" checks 4+ years ago. Then I noticed how often they were late and missing $. I reevalutated my business practices and turn down those low paying companies. Now I consider the signings I do and get a check within a week my bonus signings due to the speed in which I am paid, not the length. 
Your business, your choice. Just remember you have invoices out there and make sure they pay you.
