the awkward email.

SoftDue is a polite invoice-reminder kit for solo freelancers — Day 0 / +3 / +7 / +14 email templates plus a simple tracker. Not QuickBooks. Not tax software. Just the chase emails you keep putting off writing.

The quiet cash leak

Invoices go out

You deliver. You send the PDF or payment link. Then… silence.

Follow-ups stall

“Just checking in…” feels awkward, so you skip it. Money sits 14–60 days.

No system

Accounting suites are overkill when you only need polite reminders + a stop-when-paid list.

The Day 0 → +14 flow

Four ready-to-send emails. Replace placeholders. Mark Paid → stop the sequence.

Day 0 · with invoice

Subject: Invoice #1042 for Brand refresh — due Mar 15

“Thanks again for the work on Brand refresh. Invoice #1042 for $1,200 is linked below. Due Mar 15. Pay here: [link]. If anything looks off, reply and I’ll fix it the same day.”

Day +3 · friendly

Subject: Quick nudge — Invoice #1042 ($1,200)

“Just a friendly bump on invoice #1042. Pay anytime here: [link]. No rush if it’s already in progress — a quick ‘got it’ helps me keep books clean.”

Day +7 · firm

Subject: Following up — Invoice #1042 still open

“Checking in on invoice #1042 for $1,200, originally due Mar 15. Still unpaid on my side. Pay here: [link]. If something’s blocking (PO, cycle, scope), tell me — I’ll help unblock it.”

Day +14 · final

Subject: Final notice — Invoice #1042 ($1,200) overdue

“Final reminder that invoice #1042 remains unpaid. Pay here: [link]. If I don’t hear by [date], I’ll pause new work. Still happy to resolve this quickly.”

What you get

Who it’s for / not for

For you if…

You’re a solo freelancer (~5–40 invoices/year) who already invoices somehow but hates chasing. Designers, writers, developers, coaches.

Not for you if…

You need QuickBooks, FreshBooks, tax software, or auto Stripe sync. SoftDue is templates + a tracker — Phase 1 is manual mark-paid.

FAQ

Does this send emails for me?

No. SoftDue gives you the copy and a tracker. You send from your normal email (or schedule calendar nudges). Keep control of tone and timing.

Will it sync with Stripe / QuickBooks?

Not in this kit. Phase 1 is manual mark-paid. Paste your Stripe Payment Link (or PayPal / Wise / Venmo) into the templates.

Is this a replacement for accounting software?

No. SoftDue is the reminder sequence + tracker for freelancers who already invoice somehow and just need the chase emails.

Can I edit the templates?

Yes. They’re plain markdown in the ZIP. Adapt for your voice, late-fee policy, and payment methods.
