How to write a demand letter

An effective demand letter is clear on the facts, specific in its request, and firm but professional. Always state the invoice number, amount owed and original due date, give a concrete payment deadline, and explain the consequences of non-payment. The tone depends on how many times you have already chased.

How is it different from a reminder email?

Reminder emails suit routine, early follow-up; a demand letter (especially a "final notice") is more formal and weighty — usually the last step before litigation or collections. If you're still early, a reminder email is more appropriate. To work out how much you can claim, use the late fee calculator.
