50 Best Reminder Email Templates

1. Clear Subject and Purpose
Make the subject line concise and directly reflect the reminder’s purpose, such as "Reminder: Invoice #123 Due Tomorrow." This helps recipients recognize urgency quickly and reduces the chance of being overlooked.

2. Polite and Specific Call to Action
State the action you want the recipient to take and include any necessary details (due date, amount, link, attachment). Use a courteous tone to maintain goodwill and increase the likelihood of a timely response.

3. Appropriate Timing and Follow-up Schedule
Send reminders at logical intervals (initial reminder, then a gentle nudge, then a final notice) and avoid excessive sending. Include a clear deadline for follow-up and mention potential next steps if no response.
