Explain why in one or two sentences, thank them, and mention {perk or grandfathered option}. Under 120 words.

Swap every highlighted bit for your real details before you paste. The more specific you are, the less generic the answer.

What it does

When to use it

Use it before a service price increase when customers need clear notice of the change and any existing-customer arrangements.

Example result

Example inputs: Illustrative scenario, not a real customer interaction. The prices are invented for the example, not any real company's rates. - business: a Leander HVAC company - service: AC tune-up - old price: $79 - new price: $89 - date: January 1 - perk: customers who book before Dec 31 keep the $79 price Example output: Subject: A heads-up on tune-up pricing Hi [first name], Starting January 1, our AC tune-up goes from $79 to $89. Parts, fuel and insurance costs have all gone up, and we'd rather adjust a little than cut corners on the inspection. Thanks for being a loyal customer. Book any time before December 31 and you'll keep the $79 price for your next tune-up. As always, call or text with any questions. [your name] [company name] (78 words)

FAQ

Should I supply the reason for the increase?

Yes. Add the actual reason so the requested one- or two-sentence explanation is accurate.

What if some customers keep their current price?

Provide the grandfathered option, including who qualifies and how long it applies, so the notice can describe it clearly.
