THE KEY ELEMENTS OF INVOICE
- A business logo that makes you look like a professional
- Your company name—usually in a larger font—at the top of the invoice
- Your contact information, so clients know how to get hold of you
- The client’s billing address—both the name and the billing details. Take note that in some companies, the client you’re working with is not the person to whom you send the invoice
- Date of issue or invoice date
- Payment terms, so that clients know how many days after the issue date they should pay the invoice. While you may have specific payment terms for your business, larger companies often have their own they strictly adhere to. Make sure your invoice reflects what you’ve agreed upon
- A due date that makes it clear when you expect to be paid. This is merely the date of issue plus your payment terms
- Invoice number to help you track your invoices and stay organized for tax season. You’ll want to create sequential invoice numbers to keep things well-ordered
- Service description, so clients know what they’re paying for
- The hourly or flat rate that you usually determine in the early project stages when creating a project estimate
- Tax amount that may or may not be applicable
- The line total for each service you’re providing
- Any discounts you may want to apply for specific clients and services
- The amount due, so that the client knows what to pay
