Example inputs

Message or short thread to answer: Hi Sam, can you add a third landing page and get it all to us Friday? We assumed revisions included new pages. — Jordan

What do you want to communicate?: Politely decline extra work within the current scope and offer to discuss a separate paid follow-up. Keep the relationship warm.

Confirmed facts, boundaries and tone: I am Sam. The agreed scope is two landing pages, currently in progress. No delivery date or additional fee has been agreed for the third. Do not promise Friday, a quote amount, a free page or an attachment. Friendly and firm.

Subject: Re: Third Landing Page Request

Hi Jordan,

Thanks for the note. Just to clarify scope: our agreement covers two landing pages, which are currently in progress — a third page wasn't part of what we scoped, and revisions don't extend to adding new pages.

I can't take on a third page within the current project or commit to a Friday delivery for it, since that would mean building something outside what we agreed to and haven't planned time or cost for.

I'm glad to discuss adding a third landing page as a separate piece of work — happy to talk through what that would involve once you're ready. In the meantime, I'll keep moving on the two pages already in progress.

Best, Sam

Short version

Hi Jordan — the third page is outside our current scope of two landing pages, so I can't fit it in or commit to Friday. Happy to discuss it as separate work when you're ready. Continuing on the two pages in progress now.

If they push back

I understand the timing is tight, but the third page falls outside our current two-page scope, so I can't commit to Friday for it. If you'd like, we can discuss it as a separate, authorized piece of work.

Before sending

  • Confirm the exact scope wording in the original agreement (to make sure "two landing pages" is accurately represented).
  • Verify whether any prior conversation touched on revisions vs. new pages, since Jordan's assumption may stem from a specific exchange not captured here.
  • No pricing or availability details are included, per the facts provided — confirm none should be added before sending.
