How to write a firm email

The situation

You've asked twice for a deliverable the client owes you and they've gone silent.

The goal

Send a firm email that gets action without sounding aggressive.

Draft (the wrong way)

Just following up again since I haven't heard back — sorry to bother, but any update?

Parse-optimized draft

Following up on the assets we discussed on the 3rd and the 10th. We need them by end of day Thursday to hold your launch date; otherwise we'll need to push delivery by a week. Can you confirm you'll have them over by then?

Your turn

Paste your own draft. Parse will rewrite it in seconds.

Free to start. No signup. Parse will diagnose your hedging, tighten the ask, and hand you a draft you can actually send.
