Write three collections emails for an overdue invoice at a [TYPE OF BUSINESS].

3. Final notice before we pause work
Each under 120 words, with [CUSTOMER NAME] and [INVOICE NUMBER] as fill-ins I can swap.
How to adapt it
  • Change the third email if you never pause work. Say what you actually do instead.
  • Paste one email you've sent that worked, and ask it to match that tone.
Don't paste this in
  • Customer names
  • Invoice numbers tied to a customer
  • Bank details
  • Use a business AI account, not a personal one, for company data.
