How to invoice fixed-price or package projects?

17-04-2025

As a freelancer or self-employed professional, you may choose to work with a fixed price per project or offer your service as a package. Think of a logo design for €500 or a content package for €850. This works well for both you and the client: no surprises afterward. But how do you invoice this neatly?

1. Clearly state what is included

A fixed price only works if both parties know what is included. Describe in your quote and invoice:

  • What you will deliver
  • Delivery deadline
  • How many revision rounds are included

2. Use clear invoice lines

Don’t invoice "Project €1000", but rather:

  • Web design for [company name] – includes design, 2 revision rounds, and delivery: €1000

This keeps things clear for both you and your client.

3. Work with partial payments or milestones

For larger projects, it's smart to invoice in phases. For example:

  • 50% at start
  • 25% after concept approval
  • 25% upon delivery

This spreads the risk and keeps your cash flow healthy.
