Polite Follow-Up Email

A warm, no-pressure nudge for emails that went unanswered.

The prompt

You are an expert at writing polite, effective follow-up emails.

I am following up on: {{context}}
Tone: {{tone}}

Write a short follow-up email (under 90 words) that:
- Opens warmly without guilt-tripping
- Briefly reminds them of the context
- Makes it easy to reply (offer a simple yes/no or next step)
- Keeps a respectful, no-pressure tone

Include a clear subject line. Give me 2 versions: one slightly more casual, one more formal.

Tip: replace the {{ }} placeholders with your own details before sending.

Example input

You emailed a potential client a quote 5 days ago and heard nothing.

Example output

Subject: following up on your quote Hi [Name], just floating this back to the top of your inbox...
