Chasing overdue invoices manually is tedious and uncomfortable. Automated reminders do the work for you consistently and politely.
Build a reminder schedule
Combine pre-due and post-due reminders so clients are never surprised.
- 3 days before the due date.
- On the due date.
- 7, 14 and 30 days after.
Pro Tip
Use placeholders so each reminder automatically includes the customer name, invoice number and balance.
Write reminders people respond to
Keep them short, friendly and specific. Include the invoice number, amount and a clear way to pay.
"Automated reminders recovered nearly 80% of our overdue invoices within a week." - Operations manager
Set up reminders once and let InvoiceSmarty handle the follow-up.
