As a small home-based business, contractor, consultant or freelancer, you don't need a complicated invoicing system for just creating professional looking invoices. All you need is a free invoice template. This Excel-based invoice template is created basically for consultants, with all the fields and layout customized for consulting business needs.


The consulting invoice template works with Excel 2000 or higher versions. Compared to Word-based invoice templates, with this Excel-based invoice template you can do calculations more easily with formulas. It is fully tested on Windows XP and higher versions, but not tested on Mac.


The invoice template is simple and intuitive. Compared to a fully featured consulting invoice template software program, it is freeware and easy-to-use. You can create a new electronic invoice by fill in the blank invoice form, just like working on a paper. The free consultant billing template offers a true what-you-see-is-what-you-get invoice creator for your service business, making invoice processing easy and quick. The consulting invoice template can also be used as a consultant quotation template.


Since it is an Excel-based template, you can utilize all the tools provided by Excel to customize it, including third party programs, such as a PDF creator. For example, with Excel you can print to a virtual PDF printer or image printer. While the consulting invoice template lacks some features provided by fully-featured invoice management software, it is ideal for just creating invoices. Emailing invoices is also handy within Excel.


It is possible that your business may have different requirements, but this template provides a good sample and starting point to create your own template. You can design your own invoice format by using various tools provided by Excel, or feel free to contact us at www.office-kit.com.
