How This Automation Works
Invoice becomes overdue → Payment reminder sent automatically
Monitor Invoice Due Dates
The system continuously monitors all active fire safety invoices, tracking their due dates and payment status. It compares current dates against invoice deadlines to identify accounts that have become overdue, checking multiple times daily to ensure immediate detection of late payments.
Identify Overdue Payments
When an invoice passes its due date without recorded payment, the system flags the account and retrieves all relevant invoice details including client contact information, service description, amount due, and payment history. It verifies no pending payments are in processing before triggering the reminder.
Generate Personalized Reminder
The system creates a customized payment reminder using your template, inserting specific invoice details, client name, service information, amount due, and days overdue. It selects the appropriate reminder level (first, second, urgent) based on how long the payment has been outstanding and includes payment links and invoice attachments.
Send Reminder Communication
The personalized reminder email is automatically sent to the client's billing contact with all relevant payment information. The message includes clear calls-to-action, multiple payment options, and contact information for questions. The system tracks email delivery and opens for follow-up prioritization.
Log Activity and Schedule Follow-up
The reminder is logged in your client records with timestamp and content details. If payment is not received, the system automatically schedules the next reminder in the escalation sequence. Your team receives notifications of sent reminders and can view all communication history in one centralized dashboard.
How It Works
Fire safety service providers often struggle with timely payments for inspections, equipment installations, and maintenance contracts. This automation monitors your invoice status and automatically sends personalized payment reminders to clients with overdue balances. By eliminating manual tracking and follow-up tasks, you can focus on delivering critical fire safety services while maintaining healthy cash flow. The system tracks payment deadlines, sends escalating reminder sequences, and updates your records automatically—ensuring no invoice falls through the cracks. Perfect for fire protection companies, inspection services, equipment suppliers, and maintenance contractors who need to maintain consistent revenue streams without dedicating staff hours to payment collection.
The Trigger
The automation activates when an invoice passes its due date without payment being received. It monitors your invoicing system continuously, checking payment status against scheduled due dates. When a client payment becomes past due, the system immediately initiates the reminder sequence based on your configured timeline and escalation rules.
The Action
A professionally formatted payment reminder email is generated and sent to the client with invoice details, amount due, and payment instructions. The message includes the original invoice, payment link, and contact information for billing questions. The system logs the reminder in your records, schedules follow-up reminders if needed, and notifies your team of the communication sent.
