Follow-up plan + common mistakes

If no reply, bump within 2 business days with a single-line request
If they confirm but do not give a pay date, ask for scheduling next
Don’t resend invoices repeatedly—ask for confirmation first
Don’t CC more people unless escalation is required
Keep the ask simple: do you have this invoice?
