Pricing You Can Explain in One Breath
-
Fixed-fee $15: you keep 100% of what’s collected.
-
Contingency 20%–40%: no recovery, no fee.
-
Email + text may be used if possible and appropriate.
-
Bilingual collections: Spanish collectors also on board.
Involvement of a collection agency significantly improves recovery rate. The earlier you assign, better recovery results are delivered, using our most amicable strategies. Let your employees do core work for which they were hired, rather than making them do collections which they obviously do not enjoy.
Money saver tip: Many clients are able to treat our fixed-fee service as a Business Expense (after consulting their CPA), which can make the out-of-pocket feel close to “free.”
Why Cooperative Mediation Wins (Even When You’re Right)
Most debtors aren’t cartoon villains. They’re overwhelmed, disorganized, or prioritizing whoever feels easiest to deal with. If you argue, you become “hard,” and they delay you out of emotion. If you guide, you become “solvable,” and they pay you first.
That’s the Velvet Hammer:
-
Diplomatic tone that keeps the door open
-
Clear options (pay-in-full date vs. short plan)
-
Consistent follow-through so “later” stops being a strategy
-
Litigation scrub to avoid pushing risky accounts into the wrong lane
We want the debtor to feel: “If I handle this one, my life gets simpler.” That’s how you climb to the top of their pay list.
Red Flag Box: 3 Eden Prairie Collection Pitfalls We See All the Time
-
“It’s stuck in the approval chain.” The invoice lives in limbo between ops and finance—especially at larger offices near the 212/494 corridor.
-
“Resend it to a different email.” You comply… and nothing changes. That’s a stall, not a need.
-
“We’ll cut a check next cycle.” If there’s no date and no commitment, it’s just a soothing phrase.
Two $5K–$15K Mini Scenarios (Fast + Concrete)
$6,480 (commercial cleaning / recurring services)
A facilities manager liked the work but kept “forgetting” the last two invoices. We confirmed the right bill-to address via USPS checks, sent a clean one-page recap, and offered two payment choices. Paid in two installments—no drama, no threats.
$14,250 (equipment repair / parts + labor)
The customer claimed the quote “didn’t include overtime.” We requested the signed authorization, summarized the timeline, and proposed a split-pay plan that preserved the relationship. They stopped disputing once the path felt fair and contained.
Two Recent Recovery Results (Reputation-Safe, Step-by-Step)

-
Close cleanly: Paid out without escalation, and the clinic avoided the “angry review” spiral.
Recent business recovery — $12,780 (delivered services, “AP backlog”)
-
Find the true decision-maker: Skip tracing helped us bypass the loop of “email AP again.”
