FreshBooks is a cloud-based accounting and invoicing solution built specifically for small businesses and freelancers.

How to use FreshBooks + Pitchsite

A step-by-step look at how FreshBooks and Pitchsite work together.

1

Connect via FreshBooks API

Authenticate Pitchsite with your FreshBooks account. Existing clients and invoice templates sync to Pitchsite immediately.

2

Map proposal services to FreshBooks items

Link your Pitchsite proposal service types to FreshBooks invoice items — rates, descriptions, and tax rates all carry over from your FreshBooks setup.

3

Create FreshBooks invoices on signature

Accepted proposals automatically generate FreshBooks invoices with the correct client, line items, and payment terms — ready to send in seconds.

4

Create or match FreshBooks clients

Pitchsite checks for an existing FreshBooks client record and creates one if it doesn't exist — maintaining a clean client database without duplication.

Track time against proposal scope in FreshBooks

Time entries in FreshBooks automatically link to the client created from the Pitchsite proposal — enabling accurate profitability tracking against the agreed scope.

Use cases

Real ways agencies use FreshBooks and Pitchsite together.

Freelancer and solo agency billing

For freelancers who handle their own billing, Pitchsite + FreshBooks removes the step of creating an invoice after every signed proposal — it just appears in FreshBooks ready to send.

Time tracking vs. proposal scope

Track hours against client projects in FreshBooks and compare to the proposal estimate — see exactly where over-servicing happens and how to price better next time.

FreshBooks sends automatic payment reminders on invoices created by Pitchsite — so late payment reminders are handled without any manual follow-up from you.
