I have just had some invoice books and stickers printed by a company called KGN Printers of Luton. Found them on eBay

Real quick turnaround and all amendments were free. The stickers (for machines) are really good quality and a lot cheaper than other quotes I had

Here is one of their ads

The Invoices are 2 part NCR A5 and I bought 10 books of 50 for £84.90 inc delivery (works out at 17p per colour invoice) and the stickers are 3" x 5" I bought 250 for £80.00 - 32p each no extra delivery

Credit should go to Brian of Choice Vending as I copied (sort of) his cash up statements :thumbup:

They look really good - Don't suppose you could email me a copy the doc that you used so I can use as a template to create my own (i.e change the logo - the rest of it looks spot on lol)

No mate there is no doc but if you use the same stationers they will have it, or I can email you one of the pictures for you to email to whoever, obviously every time you write out an invoice I get 5% royalty :50:

Steve do you physically write out each line (ie skittles, minstrels etc) and then total it all up? If so how long realistically does it take?

Very nice and pretty but at 17p each (£120 per year) expensive, time consuming and too much information. I only give receipts if asked and that is in about 10% of sites. I never state the comission rate and would never give out my home address. I would ask the question why would you want to give out this information? I have many sites where the commission rate is 25% or more. As soon as there is a change of manager or ownership the rate drops back down again to 20% and I tell the manager that is the rate. The last thing I want to do is draw attention to the commission rate, it becomes an unneccessary discussion point especially with newsagents & convienience stores. I had one phone me up for a machine, got to site and asked for 50% commission because the the other shop had told him that's what he gets. I always reply yes 50% of profit they say ok, i'll reply that it's easier to calculate as 25% of turnover to get the same comission figure, I try not to pay more than £50 per visit. Sometimes too much information can work against you.
