Microsoft Office Invoicing for Small Businesses
As a small business owner, billing for your hard work is very important. From being reimbursed for your services to investing in your business, the money you make it put to good use.
Sending detailed invoices allows you to collect the payment you are due in a professional way. The right invoice outlines exactly what services were provided, the cost, accepted payment methods and more. That means less room for confusion when it comes to getting paid.
Each invoice will include a detailed breakdown of the charges made to your client’s account, along with clear payment instructions. This way your client will know exactly how to pay for your valuable services.
In addition to receiving payment, there are many benefits to using an invoice template for your small business.

- Keep track of outstanding debtors and unpaid balances

When you include detailed descriptions of the services you’ve provided and a break down of charges made, your clients will understand what they are paying for so there is less confusion.
With straightforward payment instructions, your invoice will also inform clients of how to pay you and by what date.
With all of this information in writing, you will have a clear record of transactions made within your business. This makes it easier to track accounts and your business finances overall.
