Gentle Reminder

Following up: Invoice [Number] for [Project Name]
Hi [Contact Name], Just a quick follow-up on invoice [Number] for [Project Name] ($[Amount]), which was due on [Due Date]. If it's already been processed, please disregard this message. Otherwise, let me know if you need me to resend the invoice or if there's anything I can help with. Thanks, [Your Name]
Pro Tip: Keep it brief and assume the best. Often, it's just a missed email or a busy accounts department.

Why use a sequence?

1

Builds pressure. A single email is easy to ignore. A sequence shows you won't go away.

2

Stays professional. By starting gentle, you protect the relationship in case it really was a mistake.

3

Gets results. 85% of creator invoices are paid late. Most are settled within 2 follow-ups.
