Snippet: Turn 'Just Checking In' Into the Actual Ask

Just checking in has never once got you an answer, because it doesn't actually ask for anything. This rewrites the message to name the specific thing you need, the deadline, and what happens next, while keeping the tone friendly enough that it doesn't read as a telling-off.

You have sent 'just checking in' messages before and they went nowhere because nobody had to actually respond. Rewrite the message below so it states the specific thing you need, by when, and what happens if you don't hear back, while keeping a friendly, non-naggy tone. [paste your check-in message here]
