Why personal trainers should send professional invoices

Illustration of invoice being sent

Whether you provide services at a gym, a company, or with one-to-one private clients, you know how to get people moving and working their bodies. You need a flexible invoice that can cover all the different kinds of training, teaching or coaching you do. At the same time your invoices need to be clear and easy-to-understand so your clients know exactly what they are paying for.

A sophisticated, well-designed invoice also reflects your image as high quality personal trainer, and creates credibility and confidence in your name and in your brand.

How to fill out your personal trainer invoice

Once you've downloaded your free invoice template, you'll need to customize it to fit your specific business. Here are the 10 key things to include on your invoice:

  1. Title and Description: Name the project and briefly describe what type of work your client is being invoiced for.
  2. Company Details: Add your company name, address, phone number, and logo to the top-right corner.
  3. Customer Details: Under "Bill To", add your customer's name, address, and contact information.
  4. Invoice Number: Include a unique invoice number to help you track down this invoice in the future. You can format this based on sequence and customer. For example, if you're sending your very first customer their first invoice,  the invoice number could be 001-001.
  5. Dates: Include the date when your invoice has been issued and the date when payment is due.
  6. Line Item: Add individual line items for each unique good or service you provided. For each line item, include a brief description, quantity, individual unit price, and total price.
  7. Subtotal: Add up the subtotal of your goods or services, before tax has been applied.
  8. Tax: Indicate the tax rate applied to the subtotal. This is legally required to provide on invoices, and your rate may differ depending on where you run your business.
  9. Total: Outline the total amount due from the customer, after tax.
  10. Notes: Include any additional info your customer should know, including terms of service and payment terms (for example, payments are due 30 days after the invoice has been issued).

When is the right time to send an invoice to your personal trainer clients?

The time to send your invoice depends upon the client and the type of personal training you are providing. If it’s a one-off session, or a physical assessment, most personal trainers bill at the end of the session. If you are being hired for a series of classes or private sessions, or on contract at a gym or company, you might decide to ask for payment up front, or create a regular monthly invoicing schedule to keep the payments coming in.
