How to make an invoice template
After downloading your free invoice template from Crunch, create a master version with your business details. Duplicate it for new clients or reuse for repeat clients to save time. Once finished, save as a PDF, send to your client, and note the send date. Alternatively, automate the process with Crunch.
When to send your invoice
For smaller freelance jobs under £500, consider invoicing upon completion. For longer contracts, weekly or monthly invoicing might be better. It's essential to find a schedule that suits your needs, and if necessary, discuss upfront or partial payments with your clients before invoicing.
What to include on your invoice template
Invoicing is an essential part of running your business. An invoice is a legally-binding request for payment – so it needs to include certain information to be valid in the UK. But for budding businesses, invoices are also an opportunity to keep your clients sweet in the hope of future work (more on that in a second).
Here are a few details that can stay the same across all your invoices:
- Your business name
- Your business address
- You contact details
- Your payment details
- Your payment terms
- Your full company name as it appears on your certificate of incorporation (for limited companies only)
Here’s what you’ll need to customise for each invoice:
- A unique invoice number
- Your customer’s name
- Your customer’s address
- A breakdown of the products or services you’re charging them for
- The cost or rate for each product or service
- The total amount due
Here are a few extra details you’ll need to include if you’re VAT-registered:
- Your VAT registration number
- The net cost of the products or services you’re charging them for
- The VAT rate of each product or service
- The subtotal, excluding VAT
- The total amount of VAT being charged
And finally, here are a few ideas to give your invoices that magic touch for your clients:
- Say a polite and personalised thank you
- If you gave them a discount, include it in your invoice to remind them that they’re getting great value with your business
- Let them know how much you enjoyed the project, but only if you mean it and want more work coming your way
