June 8, 2008Poison Phrase ~ Please remit payment to…
This week’s poison phrase might not seem poisonous to others, but it’s my preference, and I’m sure I’m not alone in this.
The people I work with usually become my friends. So it always seems odd when I get invoices from them with standard formal phrases like:
- Please remit payment to
Do you talk that way? Neither do I. It’s strange enough to read this kind of impersonal wording from people we don’t have personal relationships with, but it’s stranger still when we do.
These statements are standard on accounting software like QuickBooks. Take the time to personalize them.
