Example

From a messy project folder to a clearer next step.

A sample website redesign folder becomes a reviewed project state with source files, important records, readiness, and a draft follow-up.

Project setup

Northstar Studio website redesign

The folder contains a proposal, contract, feedback screenshot, delivery note, final invoice, and payment email.

Project status

What the reviewed state shows.

Ready

Ready to invoice

Mostly yes. Delivery evidence is present.

Scope risk

Pricing page request

Tracked as a possible change.

Payment

7 days overdue

Follow-up is reasonable after confirming final delivery.

Action

Suggested step

Confirm final delivery, then send a polite reminder.

Draft

A message you can review, not blindly send.

Hi Sarah,

Just checking in on the final invoice for the website redesign project. Final deliverables were sent on Apr 3, and the invoice was due on Apr 10. Let me know if anything is missing on your side.
