The Art of Chasing Invoices 

Without Losing Your Dignity 

No one likes chasing money. But if you do it right, you can collect what’s owed without turning into a villain in a soap opera.

Your 3-step chase plan:

  1. Friendly Reminder: 3–5 days after due date

  2. Firm Follow-Up: 7–10 days, include late fees if applicable

  3. Final Notice: 14+ days, outlining next steps (collections or legal)

Bonus tips:

  • Automate your reminders

  • Keep tone polite but firm

  • Log all communications for backup

✅ Funny Tip: Collecting unpaid invoices is the only time it’s socially acceptable to professionally nag.
