Free consultant SMS invoice example
An SMS a consultant can send when the session is done: hours, a fixed package if there was one, and the net terms.
Write it so a finance inbox can trust a phone
Consulting buyers forward texts to someone who pays the bills. The example names the company, the two items and the terms, and it tells them the PDF is on the link. That is deliberate. The payer may never join the chat. They will download a file. If this engagement had no research package, delete that price and those words. If it was only a workshop, say workshop. Fourteen days is the example. Net 30 means you change the line to due net 30 and the SMS to 30 days. Do not leave the numbers fighting.

Use the company name they will forward
A first name is not enough if accounts payable does not know it.
Keep the item names from the proposal
A new label looks like a new fee.
Point at the PDF
The person who pays may not be the person you text.
Match the days
14 in the line, 14 in the SMS, or change both.
What to put on this invoice
