How it works
Say what you're waiting on
Like a proposal you sent Lee last Tuesday that hasn't had a reply.
Pick the situation
No reply yet, after a meeting, after sending or checking status. Set a gentle, clear or firm nudge.
Send the nudge
Make it easier to answer, add a deadline or make it gentler, then copy it.
An example

Subject: Proposal from last Tuesday Hi Lee, I wanted to check whether you've had a chance to look at the proposal I sent last Tuesday. I'm happy to answer any questions or walk you through it on a short call. Could you let me know if it works for you, or if anything needs to change? Thanks, [Your name]
