Subject Invoice 1042 for the launch party catering
Hi Dana, A quick note on invoice 1042, $1,250 for the catering at your launch party on October 10. It’s now two weeks past due, and you mentioned last Friday that it was on its way, so I expect it just slipped through. You can pay the way it says on the invoice. Thanks so much, and glad the party went well. Juniper Bakery

Subject Invoice 1042 is three weeks overdue
Hi Dana, Invoice 1042, $1,250 for the launch party catering on October 10, is still unpaid three weeks after its due date. You said it would be paid last Friday, so I want to check nothing is stuck on your side. Could you settle it within seven days, or tell me when I can expect it? If it isn’t paid by then I’ll have to hold any further orders until it is. Thank you, Juniper Bakery

Subject Final notice: invoice 1042
Hi Dana, This is my final reminder for invoice 1042, $1,250 for the launch party catering on October 10, now five weeks overdue after two earlier notes. I’ve paused further orders until it’s paid, and under my terms a 1.5% monthly late fee now applies. Please pay within seven days the way it says on the invoice. I’d much rather settle this between us than take it any further. Juniper Bakery

Questions, answered.
How do I write an overdue invoice email?
Name the invoice, the amount and the work it was for, assume it slipped through, and say how to pay. Leave out “I hope this finds you well”. The writer above does exactly that, in three tones, from what you type.
When should an invoice reminder get firm?
Friendly on the due date, firm seven days later, final fourteen days after that: three emails, then a phone call. Never threaten; say the one next step you will actually take, such as pausing the work.
Can I add a late fee to an overdue invoice?
Only if your terms or the invoice already say so. Tell the writer in the notes and the firm and final emails will mention it; otherwise they won’t invent one.
Is it free, and do you keep what I type?
Free, no sign-up, no card; each person can write a handful a day so it stays free for everyone. The details go to the writer once, come back as three emails, and are not stored or logged.
