Some strategies to avoid making an invoice look unprofessional include keeping the design simple and clean, avoiding overly playful or complex designs, and ensuring that the invoice clearly presents all necessary information in a straightforward manner. It's also important to avoid giving the impression that too much time was spent on the invoice design, as this could suggest a lack of paying clients. A good-looking invoice can signal that your business is legitimate and consistently receives work.

Question was asked on:

On the first point: You want your invoices to look good, but you don't want to make them designful to the point where they're too playful, as it could cheapen your service and make it look unprofessional. For instance, you don't want your client to think you spend too much time on your invoice design because you don't have enough paying clients! By contrast, having good-looking invoice signals that your business is legitimate and that you get consistent work, even if is actually your first time.
