Polite Rejections

Saying no is hard, especially when you do not want to upset anyone. This set provides eight rejections that are clear yet friendly: applications, jobs, appointments you must cancel, partnerships, donation requests, sales pitches, discount requests and enquiries outside your offer. Each email gives a short reason, offers an alternative where sensible and can be adapted in a minute.

Product language: German (the templates and guides are written for German-speaking customers).

€12.00 Final price · VAT exempt under § 19 German VAT Act (UStG) – no VAT is charged.
