The Client Billing Struggle

Transferring time data to invoices manually is tedious and error-prone. Businesses lose hours each month recreating tracked time in separate billing software.

Case Study: Design Agency Monthly Billing

Mark, Creative Agency Owner
The Challenge

Mark's design agency bills 10 retainer clients monthly plus ad-hoc projects. Each client has different rates, some in different currencies. Previously, Mark spent the first day of each month extracting time data from one tool and re-entering it into invoicing software.

The Solution

With Asrify, time tracking and invoicing live in one system. Mark runs a "ready to invoice" report, selects hours, and generates invoices with one click. Client account balances show what's been paid and what's outstanding.

The Outcome

Monthly billing dropped from 8 hours to 45 minutes. Payment collection improved because invoices went out on the 1st instead of the 3rd or 4th. The agency now bills project work within 24 hours of completion instead of waiting for month-end.

"We send invoices the day work finishes. Cash flow has never been better."

Client Billing Best Practices

Invoice timing affects payment speed more than most businesses realize. Invoices sent within 24 hours of project completion get paid an average of 12 days faster than those delayed until month-end. The psychology is straightforward: clients associate the invoice with the work while the value is still fresh in their minds. Monthly billing cycles may be administratively convenient but they extend the cash conversion cycle unnecessarily.

Payment terms set expectations that become difficult to change. Many service businesses default to Net 30 simply because it's common, not because they've analyzed whether it serves their cash flow needs. Net 15 or even Net 7 is increasingly accepted, especially for smaller invoices. The key is establishing terms at the start of an engagement—changing them mid-relationship signals financial stress.

Detailed invoices get paid faster and disputed less frequently. Line items that show exactly what work was done, when, and for how long provide transparency that builds trust. Vague invoices like "Professional Services - $5,000" invite questions and delays. Time tracking that captures task-level detail enables invoices that clients can review and approve quickly.
