I found this[0] a while back, because I always felt "thanks in advance" is just off somehow. They list the following alternatives as examples: "I really appreciate any help you can provide." "I will be grateful if you can send me this information." "Many thanks for considering my request." "I hope what I have requested is possible." "In the meantime, thank you so much for your attention and participation." Often I don't use these word-for-word. The point is, I think, to formulate a closer that's at least a bit customized for the occasion. Then the whole thing will just seem more natural, friendly and human.
