Your billing process is an extension of your service. Having a professional invoice is essential when presenting yourself to customers. Whether you’re creating your first invoice, or you’re an invoicing pro, creating professional invoices is straightforward but can make a big difference to getting you paid quickly and enticing repeat business.
In this blog we highlight invoice design best practices which will get you started or help you to get paid faster.
Personalisation
Adding your own branding and colours will allow you to stand out against other companies and strengthen brand recognition. Payment Bear enables you to add your own company logo and brand colours to your profile, which will automatically be applied to every invoice you create. This makes your Customer Portal ‘white-labelled’, as if you have your own custom invoicing platform for each of your customers. Now that’s personal. By doing this, you will guarantee a unique experience and a professional invoice design.
Simplicity
Use a clear layout for customers to easily be able to read. This is particularly helpful for clients who are dealing with lots of invoices, as they can easily see the important information and will be able to pay faster. The key details that clients will be looking for are; who they are paying, how much they need to pay, when they need to pay and how they can pay. At Payment Bear, we automatically simple online invoice, populating all relevant information and highlighting the key details. If your customer prefers a PDF copy, you can quickly export in our clear template.
Consistency
Ensure all your invoices are consistent to streamline the process and save you creating a new template each time. Use a consistent structure so that all your invoices look the same and therefore more professional. It will help reduce errors, as no essential information will be missed. Payment Bear’s automated invoicing system allows you to input all relevant information into the fields required when setting up your invoice, and will populate for you in a consistent structure each time. Any information that repeats between invoices, such as your business information, will be automatically saved and populated into new invoices.
