problem 01/02

There were lots of invoices, and checking which ones hadn't been paid meant going through them by hand.

--the-fix

A daily check, done for you

Every morning the automation reviews Xero and picks out anything overdue.

problem 02/02

Every reminder email was written from scratch, so chasing was slow and uneven.

--the-fix

Reminders from one template

Each overdue customer gets a reminder built from one approved template, with their details filled in. Invoices that aren't due are left alone.
