Subject: Re: Copy correction
Hi [Name],
Thanks for flagging it. I built the design using the copy supplied on [date], so changes to the text now count as a new revision.
If you send the corrected copy as one document, I'll make all the changes together. Corrections of this kind are charged at [rate] and I'll confirm the total before I begin.
Best,
[Your name]
Before you send
- Replace every [bracket] with real details: the client's name, your fee, number of revisions, dates.
- Check it against your quote or contract. The reply is strongest when it points to what you both agreed.
- Match the tone to the relationship. For a long-term client, soften the second paragraph. For a repeat offender, keep it as is.
