late-invoice-escalation

Collect overdue invoices with a graduated escalation ladder — friendly nudge to firm notice to work-stop to final demand, each with send-ready wording and timing, plus the prevention terms that stop the next one. Use when asked my client hasn't paid me, write a payment reminder email, invoice is 60 days overdue what do I do, or client is ghosting my invoices. Produces the situation read, the escalation ladder with dates and verbatim messages, the work-stop decision point, and the payment terms that prevent reruns.

# Late Invoice Escalation Skill

Most late invoices are disorganization, not theft — which is why the ladder starts friendly and blames the invoice, not the client. But freelancers fail at both ends: waiting four months of "gentle bumps" that teach the client lateness is free, or going nuclear at day 35 and torching a recoverable relationship. This skill runs the graduated ladder — each rung dated, worded, and slightly firmer — with the two real decision points marked: when work stops, and when the relationship is already gone and only the money remains.

## What This Skill Produces

- **The situation read** — likely-disorganized vs. cash-crunched vs. disputing vs. ghosting, from the evidence
- **The escalation ladder** — dated rungs with verbatim send-ready messages, each escalating one notch
- **The decision points** — when ongoing work pauses, when it's final-demand time, and what the post-relationship options actually are
- **The prevention terms** — deposits, milestones, late fees, and stop-work clauses for every future agreement
