Coastal Print WorksInvoice #0998 · $1,150 · final touch before you decide59d quietWrite off?
Hi Gil,
I'll keep this short — I know invoice 0998 from back in March ($1,150) has been sitting a while, and I'd rather clear the air than keep the reminders coming.
If it's still on your list, just say the word and I'll re-send whatever you need. If circumstances changed on your end, tell me that too — I'd honestly rather know and work something out than keep chasing.
Either way, no hard feelings, and I hope you're well.
— Alex, Rowan & Vale
Last gentle touch. Sending it doesn't write the invoice off — that stays your call ("write off 0998").
Hi Priya,
I wanted to follow up once more on invoice 1042 — $4,200, sent June 8. It's been a few weeks now, so I'd love to get it closed out.
Could you let me know when you expect to have this settled, or if there's anything on my end that would help move it along? A quick reply either way would mean a lot.
Thanks for working with me on it,
— Alex, Rowan & Vale
Biggest single amount on the desk. Firm but kind — asks for a straight answer on timing.
Hi Marcus,
Circling back on invoice 1039 — $2,750, sent June 22. I know these things slip through, so no worries.
If something's holding it up on your side — a PO number, a different contact, anything — just tell me and I'll sort it out. Happy to re-send the invoice too.
Appreciate you,
— Alex, Rowan & Vale
New client, first invoice — kept especially warm so the relationship starts clean.
Meridian LogisticsData export owed to you · deliverable · 2nd nudge18d quietWarming
Hi Tom,
Quick one — I'm still waiting on the Q2 shipments export for your dashboard, which you'd mentioned getting to me around the end of June. No pressure at all; I just want to keep things moving on my end and didn't want it to fall off the radar.
Whenever it's easy for you, send it over (even a rough CSV is fine to start) and I'll take it from there. Let me know if anything's in the way — happy to hop on and pull it together with your team if that's simpler.
Thanks so much,
— Alex, Rowan & Vale
Not money — a deliverable they owe you that's blocking the last of their build.
Ashford MediaInvoice #1031 · $3,400 · confirm it settled17d quietConfirm?
Hi Renée,
Thanks for getting back to me on invoice 1031 — really appreciate it. I want to make sure I close it out cleanly on my side: as of today I'm not seeing the payment come through yet, so it may just be in transit or crossed with my records.
Would you mind confirming it's on its way (or already sent)? If it landed and I missed it, that's completely on me and I'll mark it settled right away.
Thanks for your patience with the double-check,
— Alex, Rowan & Vale
They said "all set" but nothing's landed — this asks, it never asserts. It stays open until the money shows.
Hi Erik,
Just floating the ops-review quote back up — $9,500 for the six-week engagement, sent June 30. No rush at all if you're still turning it over internally.
If it'd help, I'm glad to hop on a quick call to walk through the scope or adjust the shape of it. Just let me know what would move it forward on your end.
Thanks so much,
— Alex, Rowan & Vale
A quiet quote is a deal quietly dying — chased the same way an invoice is.
