What’s a billing statement?
A billing statement is a report that business owners send to their clients to show their transactions, payments, and account balance over a certain period of time. It’s similar to the account statement your bank sends you at the end of every month.
Billing statements are sent to clients after a ‘billing cycle’, that is, after at the end of a decided period. Just like banks, many business owners choose to send out billing statements monthly so that their clients are better informed of their transactions. Some other business owners send out billing statements quarterly (every three months).
A billing statement is quite different from an invoice. While an invoice is sent out to inform clients of what they owe for certain products or services, a billing statement shows clients how much they have been charged by your business over a period. Also, a billing statement is less detailed than an invoice.
Why do I need a billing statement?
Billing statements are helpful for a lot of reasons.
First, they are a great way to stay in touch with your clients. Keeping them informed on their spending and confident that they’re getting good value for money will make them love your business all the more. To your clients, billing statements are a mark of professionalism and courtesy.
Also, they help you manage your records better. Besides telling you how each client is spending on your business, they can help you compare the activity of different clients. Billing statements tell you where to channel your energy for your business to grow.
