## Prompt

Rewrite the following email to sound warm and human while staying professional. Keep it under 120 words.

Dear Mr. Johnson, Per my previous correspondence dated the 14th instant, I am writing to inform you that the deliverables enumerated in our agreement have not yet been received by our department. Kindly be advised that failure to remit said materials by the end of the current business week may result in the imposition of penalties as stipulated in section 4.2 of the executed contract. Your immediate attention to this matter would be greatly appreciated. Regards, A. Smith

## Response

Here's a warmer version:

Hi Mr. Johnson,

I hope you're doing well. Following up on my note from the 14th — we haven't received the deliverables outlined in our agreement yet, and I wanted to check in before the deadline gets closer.

Could you get them over to us by the end of this week? I'd hate for section 4.2 of the contract to come into play, since that would mean late penalties on your end.

If something's holding things up or you need more time, just let me know. I'm happy to talk through options.

Thanks so much,
A. Smith

**What changed:** Removed legalese ("instant," "kindly be advised," "said materials"), added a human opening and an offer to help, and framed the penalty clause as something you're trying to help him avoid rather than a threat.

Would you like a firmer version to keep on hand in case this follow-up goes unanswered?
