購入先に支払の遅延をお願いしてみよう

Asking for a delay in payment
あなたは取引先と会って、支払いの遅延をお願いしています。
遅延をお願いするとき正直に理由を説明しましょう。先回りして先方に受け入れられる返済プランを提案しましょう。もし拒否されたら、次に何を言われるかよく聞くことです。

Hello. I'm here because we still haven't received any payment from your company.

Hello. I'm very sorry for paying late. To be honest, we haven't received revenue from another client yet, so could you please postpone our payment schedule?

自然な表現

Hello. I'm very sorry for being late. To be honest, we haven't received revenue from another client yet, so could you please postpone our payment deadline?

1. You haven't yet paid.
2. 'Schedule' does not collocate with 'postpone'.
Oh, that explains why. Since we have been collaborating for a while, we can postpone this once. How much time do you need for the postponement?

I truly appreciate your kindness. According to the client, the revenue is supposed to be paid into us next Wednesday, so could you please wait for our payment by the end of next week with time to spare?

自然な表現

I truly appreciate your help. According to the client, the revenue is supposed to be paid to us next Wednesday, so could you please wait for our payment by the end of next week    ?

1. 'Kindness' is too strong and emotional for a business conversation.
2. 'Into' could refer to a bank account, but this just refers to who gets the money.
3. No further clarification of what this means is really needed here, although you could add a comma and "just to give us time."
That sounds reasonable. We can wait until the end of next week for the payment. Please ensure that the payment is made by then.

Thank you very much. I'll definitely pay for you on schedule. After this call, I'll also email you the new payment schedule just in case.

自然な表現

Thank you very much. We'll definitely pay for you then. After this call, I'll also email you to confirm the new payment schedule for reference.

1. Refers to the whole company in this business context.
2. Refers to time.
3. Refers to why.
4. Refers to the reason.
