In Akron, business is built on industrial grit and the handshake culture of the Midwest. From the polymer research labs near the University of Akron to the high-stakes manufacturing hubs in South Akron, your reputation is your most valuable asset. But in the current economy, “Midwest Nice” is often exploited by slow-paying debtors, turning your hard-earned revenue into their interest-free loan.
NexaCollect doesn’t just “collect debt”; we execute a revenue preservation strategy designed for the unique landscape of Northeast Ohio. We bridge the gap between maintaining local relationships and securing the cash flow required to scale.

The “Midwest Stall”: Why Waiting is Your Worst Strategy
Many Akron executives hesitate to escalate unpaid invoices, fearing it will tarnish their community standing. This hesitation is expensive.
-
The Probability Gap: An invoice placed at 60 days has a 90% success rate. By 180 days, that probability drops to 50%. In Akron’s competitive manufacturing and medical sectors, that 40% difference represents the margin between profit and deficit.
-
The 6-Year Trap: Ohio law provides a 6-year window for written contracts, but your debtors’ assets won’t wait that long. Placing accounts earlier yields significantly better results because it forces your invoice to the top of the “must-pay” pile before their capital is diverted elsewhere.

A Smarter Workflow: The Flat-Fee Revolution
Most agencies want a massive percentage of your money. We believe you should keep what you earned.
For early-stage delinquency, we deploy a $15 Flat-Fee Demand. This is a third-party “wake-up call” that signals the end of the grace period. It breaks the ghosting cycle and prompts payment without the high cost of contingency. You keep 100% of the recovered funds.
When a debtor remains stubborn, we pivot to our Contingency Phase (Step 3). We leverage intensive skip-tracing and reporting to all three major credit bureaus. We only take a 40% fee if we successfully put money back in your pocket.
Case Study: Manufacturing Success in the 330
An Akron-based polymer supplier was owed $28,000 by a regional distributor. The distributor had been “working on the check” for four months.
-
The Action: The supplier skipped the internal “polite reminders” and used our Step 2 Flat-Fee ($15) service.
-
The Result: Facing a formal third-party demand that would impact their commercial credit rating, the distributor wired the full balance in 72 hours. Total cost to the supplier: $15.
