class="article w-richtext"><p>One of the most common challenges freelancers experience is getting paid. Tispr wants to help. In this article, we’ll share how to write an email to customer for payment in a friendly way. <br><p>In all industries, there is an etiquette when it comes to email communications, and freelancing is no different. It’s a great skill to learn and can be helpful to improve no matter where you’re at in your career - whether you’re trying to collect a payment or share a deliverable. <h2>But First, Don’t Panic</h2><p>If your client’s payment is already overdue, don’t fret, especially if you’ve worked with this client before. Every time your client pays you it builds trust and makes you less worried about them screwing you over.  <br><p>If this is the first time you’ve worked with them, don’t jump to the worst-case scenario and wondering how you’re going to make rent. Focus first on the process of collecting payment before stressing yourself out and wondering what you’ll do if you don’t get paid. <h2>Payment Reminder Emails</h2><h3>Friendly Payment Reminder Template for One Week Out</h3><p>Sending out a payment reminder one week before the payment is due is a helpful way to bring your payment to your client’s mind before it’s due. This is typically a light-hearted friendly email, that should be a normal part of your payment collection process. This will help get a higher percentage of your payments on time and before the due date.  <br><p><em> Subject: Friendly Reminder: Invoice [#] Due in One Week </em> <br><p><em> Hi [client name], </em> <br><p><em> I hope things are well. I really enjoyed working on our project together and wanted to reach out to give a quick heads up that Invoice [#] is due one week from today.  </em> <br><p><em> You can view the invoice here [invoice link] and view the different payment methods.  </em> <br><p><em> Please let me know if you have any questions regarding the invoice, payment methods or services rendered.  </em> <br><p><em> Thanks! </em><p><em> [First Name] </em> <br></div><div class=other-article-link><div class="rich-text-block-2 w-richtext"><p>Your clients are the most important part of your business — <a href=/blog/top-5-tips-for-building-maintaining-client-relationships> build and maintain your client relationships with our top tips </a> .</div></div><div class="article w-richtext"><h3>Friendly Payment Reminder Template for One/Two Days Late</h3><p>Sending a quick email right after the invoice is due keeps it in the front of mind and makes the payment not extend for too long. You’re able to give them a grace period of a few days before sending this out, especially if the due date fell over a weekend.  <br><p><em> Subject: Friendly Reminder: Invoice [#] Past Due </em> <br><p><em> Hi [Client Name],  </em> <br><p><em> I hope you’re having a great day. Based on my records Invoice [#] is overdue as of [date]. There’s currently a balance of [balance owed].  </em> <br><p><em> For your convenience and ease, I’ve attached the invoice and payment methods here [insert invoice link].  </em> <br><p><em> Please let me know if any issues arise with the payments or you have any additional questions.  </em> <br><p><em> Thanks so much, </em><p><em> [first name] </em><h3>Friendly Payment Reminder Template for One Week Late</h3><p>In order to get paid, one of the strongest tactics to use is consistency with email follow-ups. This doesn’t mean that you send an email every day, but a weekly or biweekly email won’t come across poorly. Use this template below to send an additional payment reminder to your client or modify it to your discretion. <br><p><em> Subject: Friendly Reminder: Invoice [#] One Week Past Due </em> <br><p><em> Hi [Client Name],  </em> <br><p><em> I hope your week is going well. My records indicate that I haven’t received your payment for Invoice [#] of [invoice balance] which is now one week overdue. Would you mind looking into this for me? </em> <br><p><em> Please let me know if there’s someone else I can contact regarding payment, or if there is a system or process that I can make payment easier on your end.  </em> <br><p><em> I’ve attached the invoice here for your convenience [insert invoice link]. </em> <br><p><em> If you have any update on when this payment should be received, it would be greatly appreciated.  </em> <br><p><em> All the best,  </em><p><em> [insert first name] </em></div><div class=other-article-link><div class="rich-text-block-3 w-richtext"><p>Getting paid on time as a freelancer can be tricky. Get paid faster <a href=/blog/how-to-send-an-invoice-via-email-to-get-paid-faster> by sending your invoices via email </a> .</div></div><div class="article w-richtext"><h3>Friendly Payment Reminder Template for Two Weeks Late</h3><p>It’s okay to start switching the tone of the email as your invoice becomes to be two weeks to a month late. We’d never recommend being rude to your client, but it’s okay to have a more serious tone.  <br><p><em> Subject: Invoice [#] is Two Weeks Past Due </em> <br><p><em> Hi [Client Name],  </em> <br><p><em> I wanted to reach out because my records indicate that payment for invoice [#] is two weeks late. Do you have any updates on when this should be received? </em> <br><p><em> I’ve attached the invoice here [invoice link] for your convenience. Please let me know if there’s any way I can be of further assistance.  </em> <br><p><em> Please note, that any payments that are over 30 days are subject to a late fee as described in our contract terms.  </em> <br><p><em> If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.  </em> <br><p><em> Best, </em><p><em> [insert first name] </em><h3>Final Friendly Payment Reminder Template for One Month Late</h3><p>In the email that goes out more than a month late it’s good to introduce some of the repercussions that can come from not paying the invoice. This can be a late payment or fee, or if you’re still working with them on a project, you can temporarily pause services until payment is made. <br><p><em> Subject: Invoice [#] is now 30 days overdue - please send payment </em> <br><p><em> Hi [Client Name],  </em> <br><p><em> This is my fourth reminder that your payment on invoice [#] is past due. Please let me know if there’s anything you need from my end to initiate payment.  </em> <br><p><em> I’ve attached the invoice here [insert link] where you can simply make a payment through multiple payment methods.  </em> <br><p><em> As mentioned in my previous email, that per my terms, a late fee may apply moving forward as the payment is more than 30 days late.  </em> <br><p><em> Please organize the payment for this invoice.  </em> <br><p><em> Thanks, </em><p><em> [first name] </em></div><div class=other-article-link><div class="rich-text-block w-richtext"><p>Tired of clients not paying? Here are <a href=/blog/top-7-tips-ensure-get-paid-freelance-work> our top tips to ensure you get paid for your freelance work </a> .</div></div><div class="article w-richtext"><h2>What to do if your client doesn’t pay?</h2><p>It can be incredibly frustrating if after all of this effort your client still isn’t paying. Even though it can be really easy to get mad at your client, try and keep a cool head. If you maintain a good relationship you’re in a stronger power position moving forward than if you let your anger get the better of you. Late payments aren’t personal attacks, even though they can feel like it. <h3>Pause Existing Work </h3><p>If your client is over a month late in payment and you’re still working with them actively on projects, you can consider pausing current services until the invoice is paid. This mitigates the risk that you’ll go several months without payment and opens up a more serious conversation with your client. This isn’t a strategy that you can do for a one time project, but if they don’t pay on time, it’s a legitimate reason to not work with them again, or require 50% upfront. <h3>Get on the Phone</h3><p>If all of your emails have gone completely unanswered, hopping on a phone call with your client can eliminate possibilities that you’re contacting the wrong person or your POC might have left. I know it seems like a long shot, but it’s worth covering your basis to see if there was a misunderstanding or have an update on your payment. Remember to be friendly and empathetic as it will maintain your reputation and relationship.<p>If you're interested in learning more about late fees, check out the article we wrote on <a href=https://www.tispr.com/blog/top-5-things-to-know-about-late-fees-for-freelancers target=_blank> Top 5 Things to Know About Late Fees for Freelancers. </a></div><div class=other-article-link><div class="rich-text-block-4 w-richtext"><p>Invoicing is an art form — here's <a href=/blog/how-to-professionally-invoice-clients> how to professionally invoice clients </a> .</div></div><div class="html-embed-6 w-embed"><hr></div><div class=div-block-130><div><img alt class=image-160 height=100 loading=lazy src=https://assets-global.website-files.com/5e3b6956c6f489490e8f6a2f/5f10a8720c4694f3838233a9_Emily.jpeg width=100></div><div class=div-block-131><div class=text-block-111>by</div><a class=link-18 href=/author/emily-schmidt> Emily Schmidt </a><div>Contributing author, specializing in topics of interest to freelancers.</div></div></div><div class="html-embed-5 w-embed"><hr></div></div></div><div class=continue-reading><div class=container><div class=section-title><h3>Continue reading</h3></div></div><div class="collection-list-wrapper-2 w-dyn-list"><div class="collection-list w-dyn-items"role=list><div class="collection-item w-dyn-item"role=listitem><div class="card no-border blog-card"><a class="link-block-12 w-inline-block"href=/blog/top-8-prioritizing-strategies-for-freelancers> <img alt class=card-image-head src=https://assets-global.website-files.com/5e3b6956c6f489490e8f6a2f/5fa03492f01137437e94d61f_markus-winkler-Q2J2qQsoYH8-unsplash.jpg> </a><div class="card-body blog-card-body"><a class="card-blog-link w-inline-block"href=/blog/top-8-prioritizing-strategies-for-freelancers> <h4>Top 8 Prioritizing Strategies for Freelancers</h4> </a><div class="card-foot no-border text-small"><div class="text-space-left text-muted">Nov 1, 2020</div><div class="row row-justify-between"><div class=post-meta-left><a href=/blog-categories/business-management> Business Management </a></div><div class="post-meta-right text-muted"><div>by </div><div>Ky Jones</div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="collection-item w-dyn-item"role=listitem><div class="card no-border blog-card"><a class="link-block-12 w-inline-block"href=/blog/a-freelancers-guide-to-tracking-business-expenses> <img alt class=card-image-head src=https://assets-global.website-files.com/5e3b6956c6f489490e8f6a2f/5fe57d31fd13f770a5d49f2e_5f9cd4a8d40187a8e8d8e2e5_tyler-easton-faixctm2YRQ-unsplash%20(2).jpg> </a><div class="card-body blog-card-body"><a class="card-blog-link w-inline-block"href=/blog/a-freelancers-guide-to-tracking-business-expenses> <h4>A Freelancer’s Guide to Tracking Business Expenses</h4> </a><div class="card-foot no-border text-small"><div class="text-space-left text-muted">Oct 31, 2020</div><div class="row row-justify-between"><div class=post-meta-left><a href=/blog-categories/business-management> Business Management </a></div><div class="post-meta-right text-muted"><div>by </div><div>Eddie Carrillo</div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="collection-item w-dyn-item"role=listitem><div class="card no-border blog-card"><a class="link-block-12 w-inline-block"href=/blog/how-do-you-pay-yourself-in-a-sole-proprietorship> <img alt class=card-image-head src=https://assets-global.website-files.com/5e3b6956c6f489490e8f6a2f/5f9b7ccaae4a1648920523f3_annie-spratt-0cPSKUEANqU-unsplash.jpg> </a><div class="card-body blog-card-body"><a class="card-blog-link w-inline-block"href=/blog/how-do-you-pay-yourself-in-a-sole-proprietorship> <h4>How Do You Pay Yourself in a Sole Proprietorship?</h4> </a><div class="card-foot no-border text-small"><div class="text-space-left text-muted">Oct 30, 2020</div><div class="row row-justify-between"><div class=post-meta-left><a href=/blog-categories/business-management> Business Management </a></div><div class="post-meta-right text-muted"><div>by </div><div>Eddie Carrillo</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class=section-22><div class=container><div class="cta-contained bg-primary-1"><div class="section-small cta-contained-content"id=w-node-3cd7df88bedb-f16a9982><div class=content-width-medium><h2>Do your best work</h2><div class=text-large>Make your workspace your own with Tispr's affordable and flexible tools.
