Good video. I started out 3 years ago and I also had to google it. But once you make one you can pretty much create a template to then use for future invoices. Oh, since we're at the end of the year, it might be good idea to maybe make a video on preparing for taxes. I think I could learn a lot from how you prepare your profit-loss and tax deductibles you have been listing.
That’s such a good idea! I’m not an expert but I can at least talk about what I’ve done in the past and if I’m doing something wrong, then I would love to know!
I think a good (next) discussion is how to get paid, what to do if payments are late and especially how to properly escalate payment issues (i.e. late payment notices etc). Also worth capturing that contracts can (should) specify the payment terms (e.g. paid within 30 day arrears of monthly submission of invoice) and what that means when it comes to invoicing. I'd also touch on how to handle late fees - while it's easy to gloss over this painful part if you contract long enough you're going to need to know how to properly encourage some clients to pay on time.
Absolutely. I’ve been super lucky to never have dealt with more than 2 week late payment, I know it’s an issue many run into. I wanted to keep this video short and clean but this definitely is a good thing to bring up

I continue to really appreciate your content. Thank you for taking the time!
Thank you so much! These are the kind of comments that keep me going. No joke. I often feel the insecurity of “no one will like this”
Short and sweet, and excellent tip (as usual). Will update mine asap. Thanks for sharing.
Just do what works!

Great video on figuring out invoices. What do you do if someone lags in paying, or worse, refuses to pay?
Luckily I haven’t been burn by that yet! I should do a follow up after talking to some friends who have been burned
