For commercial photographers whose images are in use while the licence fee is unpaid.
“The longer and softer you make it the more it reads like you think you're being unreasonable for wanting to get paid.” This one is short and direct, with no “sorry to bother you”.
Commercial clients often use images before AP pays. Remind them the licence is conditional on payment, citing your terms.
