Help me write an email announcing a price increase to existing clients.

What's changing: [OLD PRICE OR STRUCTURE → NEW]
When it takes effect: [DATE]
Why: [YOUR HONEST REASON — RISING COSTS, MORE VALUE, DEMAND]
What's staying the same or improving: [ANYTHING REASSURING]
How current clients are affected: [GRANDFATHERED? GRACE PERIOD?]

Write an email that:
- Leads with respect and appreciation, not apology
- States the change and date plainly, no burying it
- Gives a brief, honest reason without over-justifying
- Reassures them about what stays great
- Ends warmly with a clear next step or contact for questions

Confident and human, never defensive. Don't guarantee any outcome or make claims about their finances. Give me the email plus a short subject line.

Example scenario

A cleaning service could use this to announce a rate change to existing clients with clear notice and a thank-you.
