FREE EMAIL TEMPLATE GENERATOR

Email templates for tradies

Payment reminders, progress updates, quote follow-ups and job wrap-ups written for you. Professional enough for the client, and still sounding like you.

Chasing an invoice without sounding aggressive is a genuinely hard writing problem, and most tradies solve it by not sending the email at all. Pick the purpose, set the tone, and get a message you can send in ten seconds.

The emails you put off writing

Where client comms quietly cost you money

😬

Payment chasers feel awkward

You do not want to sound like a debt collector, so the email never gets sent and the invoice keeps ageing.

🔇

Quotes go quiet

A quote with no follow-up is a quote you probably lost. Most tradies never send the second email.

⌨️

Writing takes too long

Staring at a blank email at 8pm, rewriting the same sentence, is not what you got into the trade for.

To: M. Whitfield

Hi Michael,

Hope the new switchboard has been running well since we finished up.

Just a quick reminder that invoice INV-0142 for $613.25 was due on 21 March. It may well have slipped through, which happens to all of us.

Payment details are on the invoice, and I am happy to resend it if it has gone missing. If there is anything about the work you would like to talk through first, just let me know.

Thanks again for having us out.

Cheers, Dan Latham Electrical

Add urgency and the same email firms up: it references the overdue period and states the next step clearly, without turning aggressive.

Email Template Generator questions

Is the email template generator free?

Yes. The Email Template Generator is on the free plan. Pick your purpose and tone, and copy the email straight out of the tool. No credit card needed.

What kinds of emails can it write?

Job summaries after completion, progress updates, payment reminders, quote follow-ups, general updates, thank you notes, and custom messages you brief yourself.

Will it sound like a robot wrote it?

You choose the tone: professional, friendly, or casual. It is written to sound like a tradie talking to a client, not a corporate template.

Can I edit the email before sending it?

Yes. Copy it out and change anything you like. It is a starting point that removes the blank page, not a script you have to follow.

How do I chase a late payment without damaging the relationship?

Be factual, not emotional. Reference the invoice number, the amount, and the due date, restate the agreed terms, and give a clear next step. The payment reminder purpose does exactly that, and you can add urgency if it is well overdue.

Does it send the email for me?

No. It writes the subject line and body, and you copy them into your own email client or send from the tool. You stay in control of what actually goes out.
