Free Calligrapher
Late Payment Emails
Stop compromising your creative headspace by manually chasing clients for checks while your ink dries and your bills mount.
Collections Tip
Your calligraphy contract should explicitly state that physical possession of deliverables does not constitute a transfer of ownership until the final invoice is paid in full.
Why use an automated sequence?
Chasing money ruins client relationships. As a Calligrapher, sending desperate, unstructured emails makes you look unprofessional. Using an escalating, structured email sequence removes the emotion and sets clear boundaries.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I avoid the awkwardness of calling a bride or wedding planner to demand payment?
By implementing a digital Dunning Engine, you take the emotion out of the transaction. Automated robots send the reminders on a fixed schedule, so the 'system' becomes the enforcer, allowing you to maintain a warm, creative relationship with your client while the software handles the collections.
What should I do if a client stops responding after I’ve already shipped the hand-lettered invitations?
This is a common pain point that automated systems solve through persistence. A Dunning Engine will continue to send escalating notifications and 'Invoice Viewed' receipts, creating a digital paper trail that makes it much harder for a client to claim they 'never saw' the bill.
Is it standard practice to stop work if a mid-project milestone payment is missed?
Yes, and it is the most effective way to protect your time. Using an automated workflow allows you to set triggers where the 'robots' notify the client that production has paused automatically the moment a payment window closes, ensuring you aren't providing free labor.
