Subject:> Request for Meeting to Discuss Project Deadline Challenges

Dear Mr. Johnson,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention an important development regarding the upcoming project deadline for the marketing campaign. Recently, our team encountered unforeseen issues related to supplier delays, which may impact our ability to meet the original deadline of March 15th. Specifically, we received notification that the delivery of essential promotional materials has been postponed by at least one week, which could affect the overall timeline.

Given the significance of this matter, I believe it would be beneficial to discuss potential solutions and adjustments. Therefore, I would like to request a face-to-face meeting on Wednesday, March 8th, at 2:00 PM in your office. This meeting will allow us to explore options to mitigate the impact of the delay and ensure the successful launch of the campaign.

In our discussion, I will focus on the facts of the situation, including recent communications from the supplier and the revised timeline, without emotional language, to facilitate a constructive dialogue. I am confident that with clear communication and collaborative planning, we can address these challenges effectively.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please let me know if the proposed time works for you or if there is an alternative that better fits your schedule.

Sincerely,

Jane Smith

Marketing Coordinator
