Two Lanes to Restore Your Cash Flow
-
Fixed-fee $15: Ideal for small balances like membership dues or service no-shows. You keep 100% of the money we recover.
-
Contingency (20%–40%): No recovery, no fee. Best for larger medical spa balances or older accounts that require intensive skip tracing.
The Velvet Hammer: Why Diplomacy Outperforms Aggression
In the current automotive market, a car is often a person’s most vital asset. When a customer stops paying, it’s rarely because they don’t want the car—it’s because they’ve hit a hurdle. As a professional collection agency, we employ the Velvet Hammer approach. This means we are firm enough to secure your payment but empathetic enough to protect your 5-star online reputation.
We prioritize being the first bill the debtor wants to pay. By working with them rather than against them, we lower the “defensive wall” that typically leads to ignored calls. Before our collection agency even initiates contact, we perform a litigation scrub. This identifies high-risk individuals who may have a history of filing predatory lawsuits, protecting your dealership from unnecessary legal exposure. This proactive strategy is why our recovery rates are significantly higher than the industry average.
🚩 Red Flag Box: 3 Dealership Collection Pitfalls
-
The “Friendship” Delay: Waiting to send an account to a collection agency because the customer “promised” to pay next week usually leads to a total loss once they disappear.
-
Using Sales Staff for Collections: Your top sellers should be closing deals, not wasting hours on high-stress collection calls they aren’t trained for.
-
Ignoring Bilingual Needs: In many local markets, failing to offer Spanish-speaking outreach means you are effectively ignoring 20% or more of your past-due accounts.

A Note from the Reconciliation Team
We view ourselves as your “Account Reconciliation Team.” Our goal is to resolve the financial friction between you and your customer with total transparency. Every interaction we have is a reflection of your dealership’s values, and we take that responsibility seriously.
High-Efficiency Recovery Pricing
We offer flexible pricing models that align with your dealership’s specific recovery needs:
-
Fixed-Fee Model ($15): A flat fee per account for early-stage outreach. You keep 100% of the recovered funds.
-
Contingency Model (40%): Our “No Recovery, No Fee” option. We only get paid when we successfully bring money back to your office.
-
Returned Car Incentive (25%): We understand that a returned car has depreciated and requires labor to re-sell. Therefore, if the vehicle is returned rather than the cash being paid, our contingency fee drops to 25% to recognize the equipment’s lower value relative to a new asset.
Please Note: As a collection agency, we do not perform physical repossessions. To reclaim a vehicle, you must engage a licensed lawyer or a local sheriff if you have already obtained a court judgment.
Advanced Tools and Federal Compliance
Speed and accuracy are the engines of successful recovery. By involving a professional collection agency early, you significantly improve your recovery rates. We use the most amicable strategies to ensure your employees can do the core work they were hired for.
-
Digital Speed: We utilize email and text messaging to speed up response times when appropriate.
-
Integrity Checks: All calls are recorded and randomly reviewed to prevent “rogue collectors” and protect you from review-bombing risks.
-
Data Accuracy: We perform skip tracing, bankrupty checks, and credit reporting (where permitted and requested) to ensure every lead is actionable.
-
Bilingual Outreach: Our team includes dedicated Spanish collectors to bridge communication gaps.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How soon should I send an account to your collection agency?
The earlier, the better. Statistically, accounts assigned within the first 60 days of delinquency have a recovery rate nearly 3x higher than those left for six months.
2. Can you help with customers who live across state lines?
Yes. Our skip-tracing and address verification tools are national, allowing us to track debtors regardless of where they move within the current business environment.
3. Does your $15 flat fee include skip tracing?
Our flat-fee service is a high-velocity outreach tool. For deeper investigative work like skip tracing on “skips” (debtors who have vanished), our contingency model is often the more effective choice.
4. Will using a collection agency hurt my local reputation?
Not with our “Velvet Hammer” approach. We focus on firm, professional reconciliation that often results in the debtor thanking us for helping them clear their record, protecting your local standing.
