Are you having trouble billing customers? Here are some tips to make things easier.
Steps
Method 1 of 1: Bill a Customer
Step 1. Make sure you make a note of the money they owe you and the date of the benefit
If you run a small business you can limit yourself to writing notes in a notebook, otherwise you can try some billing software. There are several software available on the market, including online, which are very useful because they allow you to avoid entering data multiple times. Try a few, and see which one suits your needs best.
Step 2. Give your clients some time after your performance, so you don't rush them, but don't wait too long, otherwise the client may forget that he has to pay you and run out of money
Step 3. Send the invoice
Shipping by post is the most effective method. Make sure you clearly indicate the service you are requesting payment for. Include all the details of the company, the date and the amount due, specifying the amount of the VAT and the tax.
Step 4. Send a kind note with your invoice, saying thank you for the transaction
Don't make a tragedy if they pay you the wrong amount; just say politely that there is a mistake and don't argue with them.
