A past due letter is an effective way to remind clients that they owe money for a product or service they purchased. It is also a great way to create a sense of urgency around the invoice’s due date.

The first ar past due letter should be sent after you’ve tried calling or emailing a customer but haven’t heard back from them. It should be written in a friendly tone to encourage them to pay, without making the situation personal.
It should include the invoice number, date it was due, and a short reminder of your payment policy. It should also include a reference to the previous letters you’ve sent and the warning that you may take legal action against the customer if he fails to make payment.
The second ar past due letter should be sent between 30-60 days after the first. It should be more assertive than the first one, but still professional and polite. It should remind the customer of the details of the original invoice and the late payment penalties, as well as offer a possible payment plan that can be negotiated with the client.
The third ar past due letter should be sent when a customer has ignored the first three and hasn’t paid, or responded to your collection attempts by phone. It should also include a reference to your last letter, the date it was received and the warning that legal action will be taken if they don’t respond or pay.
