REQUEST LETTER SAMPLE – This is a sample of a letter of request asking a certain customer for payment without the sound of being rude.
Waiting to get paid is sometimesa hard part. You may be paid on the agreed date but sometimes, you find yourself waiting past the agreed date. Despite having good faith that it will soon be processed, you still need to make an action about it. And by penning a letter for it, which a sample letter is provided below, is the most formal approach.
See some tips:
- Know when is the right time to send a payment request letter. It should be the following:
- #1 payment reminder letter – a week before the payment due date
- #2 payment reminder letter – the day of the payment due date
- #3 payment reminder letter – a week after the payment due date
- #4 payment reminder letter – two weeks after the payment due date
- #5 payment reminder letter – one month after the payment due date
- Be friendly in your tone and make your letter short but informative.
- Summarize the details agreed upon and don’t make it sound personal.
- Provide a precise record of your work.
- Consider that paying is a crucial part of having a business and this must be handled with complete honesty and care.
