Daniel Novak decided to leave the security of a full-time job and start freelancing as an architect. But he quickly encountered an unexpected challenge – invoicing. That changed when he discovered MyInvoiceOnline. Today, he’s in control of both his invoices and his time.
Daniel's story
Three years ago, Daniel Novak fulfilled his dream – he left his job at an established studio and founded his own practice. He had always craved freedom – in the creative process and in how he organized his time. “At one point, I realised I no longer wanted to draw by someone else’s rules. I wanted to create work that made sense to me and my clients.”
He started out working from a small coworking space in central London. Now, he designs family homes, café interiors, and small-scale development projects. His clients are from all over the UK, with some also from Ireland and Germany.
Getting started with MyInvoiceOnline
One of the first things Daniel had to tackle as a freelancer was admin. “I cobbled something together in Excel, then tried using PDF templates, but it was too much – and mostly, it just took time away from my design work.” A colleague recommended MyInvoiceOnline.co.uk.
“I wasn’t expecting miracles, but I was genuinely surprised. Setup took a few minutes, everything is clear – and I can even customise invoices to match my design style.”
What MyInvoiceOnline brought him
Since then, Daniel uses the service daily. “What I appreciate most is the time and stress it saves me. I can now create a professional-looking invoice in two minutes. Clients often tell me they like the clarity and simplicity. And that’s exactly the impression I want to make as an architect.”
Now? Confidence and calm
Daniel now has more time for what he loves. He cycles, designs minimalist interiors, and builds fair relationships with his clients.
