As a funny person, let me tell you about these ridiculous generic invoices that I came across. So, basically, someone thought to themselves “Hey, let’s create a boring piece of paper that people have to stare at while they try to figure out how much they owe us!” And thus, the generic invoice was born. But wait, it gets better. Not only are these invoices completely uninspired and unoriginal, but someone also decided to make them printable! Yeah, because what I want to do in my spare time is print out a blank sheet of paper with some random text on it. But hey, if you’re into that kind of thing, I’ve got some good news for you. I stumbled across this website (I won’t name names, but let’s just say it rhymes with “Acme of Skill”) that has a whole bunch of these generic invoices ready to print. And if that wasn’t exciting enough, they even have some templates for you to choose from. Wow, lucky us. Let me break it down for you. The title of this particular invoice template is “Generic Invoices Printable”. I mean, really? Did they even try? And if you’re still not convinced, let me describe the image for you. It’s a plain white sheet of paper with some black text on it that says “Generic Invoices Printable” at the top. Riveting stuff, I know. But wait, there’s more! The website also includes a lovely paragraph of text to accompany the image. And by lovely, I mean mind-numbingly boring. Here it is in all its glory: “Template Business PSD, Excel, Word, PDF” Wow, what a masterpiece. I’m sure this sentence has inspired many a business person to print out their very own generic invoice. But all joking aside, let’s be real. Invoices may not be the most exciting thing in the world, but they are important. And if you’re going to be sending them out to clients or customers, you want to make sure they look professional and are easy to read. So, while these generic templates may be tempting, it’s worth it to invest in a customized invoice that suits your specific needs. But if you’re still dead set on using a generic template, at least choose one that’s a little more visually appealing. And maybe skip the “Template Business PSD, Excel, Word, PDF” description. Just a thought.
