My neighbor in Denver swore by sending a physical invoice copy after 30 days late, and it actually got a $2,500 payment from a ghosting client.
He said the paper trail feels more serious than another email, so I mailed a polite letter with the invoice attached, and the check showed up a week later, so has anyone else had luck with snail mail for big overdue amounts?

Yeah, that "paper trail feels more serious" thing is real. I've had checks arrive after months of email silence once a physical letter went out.

It's like the paper copy makes it a legal thing in their head, not just another email to ignore.

Totally agree about the paper trail feeling serious. My friend had a client who owed over four grand and ghosted for months. She sent a final notice by certified mail, and the guy called her within two days to apologize and pay. He said the letter made it feel "official" and he finally opened it.
