Tips for professional invoicing
Use sequential invoice numbers so you and your clients can track payments easily. Start with a simple format like INV-001, INV-002 and so on.
Always include a clear due date. Common terms are "due on receipt", "due within 7 days" or "due within 14 days". Be consistent with your payment terms across all clients.
Keep a copy of every invoice you send. This is important for your own records, tax returns and any payment disputes.
If you work different rates for bank holidays or unsocial hours, list each rate as a separate line item so the invoice is transparent.
