The Economics of Recovery: Two Transparent Paths
We believe in protecting your margins before we ever place a call. Whether you are a boutique in the Heritage District or a major distributor along the Highway 99 corridor, our pricing is designed to keep the lion’s share of your money in your pocket.
-
The $15 Phase (Fixed Fee): Perfect for early-stage delinquency. For a flat $15 per account, we deploy our professional outreach. When the customer pays, they pay directly to you, and you keep 100% of the recovery.
-
The Performance Phase (Contingency): For older, more complex debt, we work on a 20%–40% contingency. If we don’t recover your funds, you owe us nothing. No recovery, no fee.
Contact Nexa to audit your aging report and pick the right tier.
Lodi Market Report: Navigating the “Wine & Work” Economy
Lodi isn’t just a tourist destination; it is a high-stakes hub of agriculture, manufacturing, and specialized healthcare. With major employers like the Adventist Health Lodi Memorial network and massive agricultural cooperatives like Pacific Coast Producers anchoring the region, the local economy operates on a complex web of “net-30” and “net-60” terms.
In a city where business is often done on a first-name basis, the “Velvet Hammer” approach is the only way to survive. Our Account Reconciliation Concierges are trained to understand that a “debtor” is often just a confused customer facing billing friction. By positioning ourselves as concierges rather than “bill collectors,” we preserve the customer lifecycle. To protect you from the “review-bombing” culture that can plague local businesses, we record every call and perform random quality reviews, ensuring our team never goes rogue.
