Body

Hi [First Name],

This is a reminder, not a scare note. Invoice [number] is still open.

I'm writing because a renewal 90 days out, a lost account, or a new appetite from a carrier. Late fees start on [date] per our agreement. I'd rather get it cleared than apply them.

Given this is no response, offer a yes, a later, or a stop. Three doors beat one demand.

Can you confirm it's in the next payment run?

Best,
[Your Name]
[Your Title]
[Your Company]
