Invoice & Payment Chaser

What it does

The Invoice & Payment Chaser acts as a professional accounts-receivable lead for freelancers and agencies. It generates a calibrated, escalating sequence of payment reminders designed to recover overdue funds while protecting the client relationship. Instead of sending generic or aggressive emails, this skill crafts stage-appropriate messages—from gentle pre-due nudges to firm final notices—tailored to your specific client history and project context.

Why use this skill

Chasing money is an anxiety-inducing task that many developers and creatives avoid or handle poorly. This skill removes the emotional friction by providing a "playbook" approach to collections. It is better than standard prompting because it follows a proven escalation ladder, calculates specific due dates, and ensures every message reduces payment friction by including essential transaction details. It maintains a calm, professional tone that gets you paid without burning bridges or appearing desperate.

Supported Scenarios

• First Nudges: Gentle reminders for invoices that just slipped through the cracks.
• Firm Follow-ups: Direct requests for payment commitments when a client goes quiet.
• Escalation Notices: Professional communications for late-stage delinquency, including work-pause notices.
• Pre-due Reminders: Proactive "heads-up" notes to ensure on-time payment.

The Result

You receive a series of send-ready, short, and effective emails. Each includes calculated dates, specific amounts, and placeholders for your payment links, accompanied by strategic advice on when to send each follow-up for maximum impact.
