Pricing That Stays Simple (So You Can Act Fast)
-
Fixed-Fee: $15 per account — you keep 100% of what’s recovered
-
Contingency: 40% — no recovery, no fee
When appropriate and permitted, we may also use email or text to speed up responses and reduce the “missed call / missed voicemail” loop.
Money saver tip: Many clients are able to treat the fixed-fee service as a Business Expense (after consulting their CPA), which can make the real cost feel close to free.
The Moment Collections Goes In-House, It Becomes Everyone’s Problem
This is what overdue accounts do to Aberdeen businesses:
Your office manager starts “checking in” between scheduling and payroll.
Your receptionist becomes the reluctant bad guy.
Your staff hesitates to follow up because it feels awkward.
And the balance ages… quietly… until recovery gets harder.
Involvement of a collection agency significantly improves recovery rate. Earlier you assign, better recovery results are delivered, using our most amicable strategies. Let your employees do the core work they were hired for—rather than making them do collections, which they obviously do not enjoy.
Why You Recover More by Working With the Debtor (Instead of Arguing)
Arguing feels satisfying for about five minutes.
Then the debtor stops answering, and now you’re stuck.
Most debtors don’t pay faster when they feel attacked. They pay faster when:
-
the path is clear
-
the tone is respectful
-
the deadlines are real
-
and the plan doesn’t feel like a trap
That’s exactly what our Velvet Hammer approach is built for.
We’re firm enough to secure payment, but respectful & soft enough to protect your 5-star online reputation. We want the debtor to feel one thing: “I can resolve this today.” Not, “I’m going to disappear.”
We also run a litigation scrub before we push hard—so you don’t waste time collecting from riskier situations that can create bigger problems later. That filter alone is a major reason our recovery performance tends to run higher than the industry average.
Note from the Account Reconciliation Team
We don’t do collection “theater.” No attitude. No threats. No embarrassing anyone.
We do structure, documentation, and follow-through.
We’ll keep your name clean, your team focused, and the debtor moving toward a real finish line.
Also: Spanish-speaking collectors are available, which often speeds up resolution and reduces misunderstandings that cause delays.

Local Fit: Aberdeen Needs “Hub City Pressure,” Not Big-City Aggression
Aberdeen isn’t a place where you can bulldoze relationships and expect zero consequences. People talk. Vendors cross paths again. And your reputation matters as much as your pricing.
That’s why our approach works so well here—where life and business revolve around:
-
US-12 cutting across town (steady east-west movement)
-
US-281 running north-south (and feeding regional traffic)
-
Northern State University bringing student and workforce flow
-
Avera St. Luke’s Hospital anchoring healthcare in the area
-
Aberdeen Regional Airport (ABR) making business travel realistic without a long drive
-
Wylie Park / Storybook Land pulling families and seasonal commerce
-
the green reset of Kuhnert Arboretum and weekends out at Richmond Lake
In short: Aberdeen runs on connection. We collect in a way that respects that.
Think of it like rail switching at a busy junction: you don’t smash the cars together. You line things up, lock them in, and move them forward on schedule.
Red Flag Box: 3 Aberdeen Collection Mistakes That Cost Real Money
🚩 Waiting until you’re “fed up” before placing the account
By then, the best recovery window has already cooled off.
🚩 Letting three different employees follow up in three different tones
Inconsistency trains debtors to delay because nothing feels final.
🚩 Being polite… then suddenly going nuclear
That emotional whiplash doesn’t create urgency. It creates avoidance.
