Need an invoice form, please

I've never used an official form - I just make my own for each client. Include your name, address, social security or employer ID, the agreed on rate, payment terms, and the contact for the invoice.
Hope that helps.

I'm not sure what she means by "real." I've always just done what sam does when I send invoices.
Did you e-mail her and ask about it?

Susie:

You can buy small packages of "real" invoices at Staples, etc. But I just created a similar looking doc. in MS Word.

That seems like an odd, picky request. As long as you have all the pertinent info on your invoice, that should be sufficient, I would think.

Glad you got what you need. Here's something that may be useful:


If you are an MS Word user, they have a bunch of templates for free, including a set of invoices.

So does OpenOffice, btw.

In case anyone else looks at this thread needing an invoice, this is a kind of cool website I have used to create one quickly. You just enter all your info and the site formats it:

And Susie - congrats on the article acceptance!

I always just use an MSWord form. I tailored it to my business name and it's done the job for the past few years for me.

If you get paid by PayPal, you can send an invoice through them. There's a small charge for it, but it's not much. I use PayPal invoices for TutorialBlog, which is actually how I found out about it because they requested to be invoiced that way.
