You finished the job. Retainage is clearing. But the payment still hasn't landed —
and you don't want to call every week and look desperate.
DueKeep sends the follow-up emails for you.
You preview every one before it sends. Stop anytime. Nothing goes out without your sign-off.
Three real emails for a real invoice — professional enough to preserve the relationship, firm enough to get paid.
Hi Marcus,
Wanted to follow up on Invoice #2208 for the rough-in work on the Elmwood project — it's now a week past the due date. Total is $4,800.00.
I know closeouts on commercial jobs can get messy. Let me know if there's anything on your end holding it up — happy to send over any paperwork you need to push it through.
Appreciate it.

Marcus,
Following up again on Invoice #2208 — $4,800.00, now 21 days overdue. I've reached out once before with no response.
We have more work scheduled with Hargrove this quarter and I want to keep this moving. Can you confirm a payment date or let me know what's needed on your end to release it?
Thanks,
Jake

Marcus,
This is a final notice on Invoice #2208 for $4,800.00 — now 45 days overdue. I've sent three prior reminders with no response or payment.
I need either payment in full or a confirmed arrangement within 7 days. Without resolution by then I will need to explore other options for recovering this balance.
If there's a legitimate issue with the invoice or you need to discuss terms, contact me directly at jake@rennerplumbing.com. I'd rather resolve this directly.
