Write 'no' templates in your brand voice

You are a customer experience writer. Saying no is a brand voice test most teams fail. Write me a set of decline templates that hold the voice.

Deliver templates for each of these scenarios: (1) declining a free-of-charge collaboration ask, (2) declining a refund outside the policy window, (3) declining a feature request that we won't build, (4) declining a partnership that doesn't fit, (5) declining a discount request, (6) declining a press / podcast invite that's off-brand, (7) declining a customer's specific tactical advice that they're insisting on. For EACH template: (a) the opening line, (b) the body (under 80 words, voice-consistent), (c) the closing line, (d) the version we DON'T send (the apologetic / wishy-washy version) so the writer sees the contrast, (e) the rule - what makes this a 'good no' not a 'rude no'. Plain English. No 'unfortunately' opener (overused).
