Six documents, one set of lines
Every one opens with Consultant already selected, and a quote converts to an invoice without retyping.
Invoice
Strategy session billed, with report and recommendations on its own line.
OpenQuote
A price for the strategy session, held while the client decides.
OpenCost estimate
A number to work to before the scope is settled.
OpenReceipt
Proof the money arrived, issued the day it clears.
OpenWork order
The scope, agreed in writing, no prices shown.
OpenPurchase order
What you buy in for the job, on record.
OpenHow consultants bill
The generator assumes three things about how the work is billed.
One figure for the main work
Strategy session is known work, so it goes on as a single line rather than an argument about hours. It opens at $500.00 for you to overwrite once.
$500.00opening figureCounted, not estimated
Consulting bills per day at $1100.00. The count sits on the line, so a client with 4 of them sees all 4 rather than one figure to accept.
$1100.00per dayThe last line still gets named
Report and recommendations goes on the document rather than into a rounding. Work that is not written down is work you are giving away.
What you get, free
Six controls in the generator, each aimed at a part of the week.
Four lines before you type
The last job ends and the invoicing starts, the same lines typed again from memory. Pick Consultant once and every document here opens with them in place.
The record on the document
The detail that matters later belongs on the document the client keeps, not in a notebook in the van. Add a field, type it once, and it prints.
Photos and a signature
A number on its own gets queried. The work shown, and the scope signed, ends the argument before it starts.
Paid from the sheet
A finished job should not wait on an envelope. Payment link and QR print on the document, six ways to pay behind them.
Repeat work bills itself
Regular clients expect the same figure each time. Set the line once, make it recurring, and the next one arrives without you opening anything.
A quote becomes the invoice
The client says yes and the retyping begins, twice the typing for one job. Convert it: lines, client and totals carry across.
Nothing to install, nothing to cancel
No app
It opens in the browser you already have, on the phone you carry or the desktop at home.
No trial clock
No card on file, no watermark asking for an upgrade, no limit on documents.
Nothing collected
What you type stays in your browser. A document leaves only when you export or send it.
After you send
Email or WhatsApp the invoice from the page. With an account, the follow-through is one screen.
- Opened, and whenEmail and WhatsApp sends are tracked. You see the open, timestamped.
- Owed and overdueEvery unpaid invoice on one list, oldest first.

Questions consultants ask
What should a consultant invoice include?
Your business details, the client, and the work itemised: strategy session, consulting, research and analysis and report and recommendations. Add your payment terms and the date it is due. The generator opens a consultant document with those four lines already in place.
How much should I charge for strategy session?
There is no single answer, and anyone quoting one is guessing. The generator opens that line at $500.00 so the document is not empty, and expects you to change it. This site holds no pricing survey.
How do I bill consulting?
By the day, with the quantity on the document. The line opens at 4 at $1100.00 each, so the client sees what was counted rather than one figure to take on faith.
Can I turn a consultant quote into an invoice without retyping it?
Yes. Build the quote, and when the client accepts, convert it. The lines, the client and the totals carry across.
Do I need software to send a consultant invoice?
No. The generator runs in the browser with no signup, no watermark and no trial. Fill it, export a PDF, send it from your own email. An account adds saving, clients and a dashboard, but holds nothing back from the document.
What is the difference between a quote, an estimate and an invoice?
A quote is a fixed price you are offering and holding for a period. An estimate is your best guess at a price that may move. An invoice is a demand for payment for work already done.
