Why Content Writers Choose Evolvv
Whether you charge 'Per Word' or 'Per Article', clarity is key. This template treats word counts as quantities, allowing you to automatically calculate totals for large writing projects.
Per Word & Article Billing
Automate the math. Use the 'Quantity' field for Word Count (e.g., 1500) and 'Rate' for Cost Per Word (e.g., 2.00) to instantly calculate the total line item amount.
Ghostwriting IP Transfer
Justify premium rates. Attach a 'Terms Template' that explicitly states intellectual property rights transfer to the client only upon full payment.
Advance Payment Invoices
Secure your time. Create a '50% Advance' invoice for large projects. Once paid, convert the remaining estimate into a final balance invoice.
Clean, Minimalist Layout
A text-focused invoice design that prioritizes readability. Perfect for writers who value simplicity and want their service descriptions to stand out.
Bulk Content Batches
Simplify admin. Bill for an entire month's calendar (e.g., '12 Social Posts' or '4 Blog Articles') as a single list of items rather than sending 12 separate bills.
Revision Round Limits
Prevent scope creep. Use the item description to explicitly list 'Includes 2 Rounds of Edits', ensuring clients know that extra work is billable.
How to Create a Professional
Content Writer Invoice
Billing correctly is crucial for getting paid on time. Follow these 4 simple steps to create a perfect invoice in minutes.
Set the Quantity
Treat 'Word Count' as the Quantity. Example: Qty: 1000, Rate: ₹5. Total = ₹5000.
Add the Ghostwriting Clause
Select the 'IP Transfer' terms template. This legally binds the copyright transfer to the payment of the invoice.
Define Revision Scope
In the description, state: 'Draft + 2 rounds of edits included. Additional edits billed hourly'.
Kill Fee Provision
For big projects, add a note about a 'Kill Fee' (cancellation fee) if the client cancels after work begins.
