Simple Pricing (and a smarter way to use it)
-
Fixed-Fee Option: $15 per account — you keep 100% of what’s collected.
-
Contingency Option: 40% — no recovery, no fee.
When appropriate and permitted, we may also use email or text to speed up responses. Involvement of a collection agency significantly improves recovery rate—the earlier you assign, the better recovery results are delivered, using our most amicable strategies. Let your employees do the core work they were hired for, instead of collections (which they obviously do not enjoy). Bilingual collections—Spanish collectors are also on board.
Money saver tip: Many clients are able to offset our fixed-fee service by treating it as a Business Expense at tax time (after consulting their CPA).
Why North Brunswick collection needs a “quietly firm” approach
North Brunswick sits in a high-velocity pocket: the Route 1 corridor, nearby university and hospital activity in New Brunswick, warehouse and light industrial flow toward the ports, and the constant churn of commuters and vendors moving between Middlesex County towns. That mix creates a specific kind of accounts receivable pain:
-
High volume, smaller invoices from vendors and service providers supporting Route 1 businesses
-
Multi-location billing confusion (one HQ, multiple job sites) across North Brunswick, Edison, and Somerset
-
“Temporary” delays that become permanent when you don’t set consequences early
That’s why our Account Reconciliation Team uses a Velvet Hammer style: calm voice, clear boundaries, and consistent follow-through.
Red Flag Box: 3 local pitfalls we see businesses repeat
-
The “we’re waiting on a check run” loop: AP keeps moving the date, and you keep accepting it without a firm plan.
-
Change orders without clean paper trails: common with contractors and restoration work—easy for debtors to dispute later.
-
Front desk collections at clinics: staff gets uncomfortable, says the wrong thing, or triggers a reputation blowback online.
Why cooperative mediation wins (and arguing loses)
Most debtors don’t pay the loudest creditor first—they pay the one that feels organized, reasonable, and persistent. When you argue, you hand them a reason to stall: “I felt threatened,” “I’m disputing it,” “Send it again,” “Talk to my lawyer.” When you work with them—without getting soft—you give them a path to say “yes” and close the file.
Our approach looks like this:
-
We validate details early (invoice, dates, service confirmation) so excuses die quickly.
-
We offer structured choices (pay today, pay this week, or a short payment plan).
-
We use a litigation scrub to reduce risk before escalation—because some accounts are landmines, and you shouldn’t step on them.
A quick note from the Account Reconciliation Team
We’re not here to “win arguments.” We’re here to win payments—cleanly. That means we speak like professionals, document everything, and keep the temperature low. Debtors are far more likely to prioritize you when they feel you’re fair, focused, and unshakable.
Two recent recovery results (reputation-safe)
Medical recovery (North Brunswick): $6,980 balance
-
The clinic had an insurance delay that turned into a patient balance; staff didn’t want to chase it and risk reviews. We opened with a respectful verification call and a follow-up text option.
-
Debtor claimed confusion about the remaining amount. We re-sent a clean statement, clarified dates, and offered two payment choices.
-
A two-part payment plan cleared the account in under a month, with no heated exchanges and no public drama.
Business recovery (nearby New Brunswick): $11,420 invoice
-
A vendor completed work tied to a busy office schedule—then AP went silent. We started with a firm-but-polite notice and a call cadence that stayed professional.
-
Debtor requested “one more week.” We agreed only with a written commitment and scheduled payment date.
-
When the date slipped, we escalated to a stronger demand tone (still calm), included documentation, and secured payment via a short plan that closed quickly.

North Brunswick (Dental lab balance: $3,740): We verified delivery logs, offered pay-in-full vs. two installments, and used text reminders for speed. Settled without burning the relationship.
-
Nearby Somerset-area contractor invoice: $9,860: We addressed a partial dispute by separating uncontested charges from the disputed line item, collected the uncontested amount immediately, then resolved the remainder with documentation.

Practical rules snapshot (not legal advice)
We follow a practical, documented process aligned with state and federal guardrails: clear identification, respectful contact, and accurate recordkeeping. We also perform address checks using USPS methods, skip tracing, and a bankruptcy check before escalating. Credit reporting can be used if you choose and if permitted, and we keep documentation ready in case of disputes.
And because reputation risk is real: calls are recorded and randomly reviewed to prevent rogue collectors and reduce review-bomb exposure.
FAQs
Can you reach someone who moved from North Brunswick to PA or NY but still owes us?
Yes. We use verified contact workflows and skip tracing to locate and communicate appropriately across state lines.
Do you work with “small-ticket but high-volume” invoices common along the Route 1 corridor?
That’s one of our sweet spots. Fixed-fee placement keeps it economical, and consistent documentation prevents endless back-and-forth.
If a debtor claims they’re “disputing it,” do we lose the account?
Not automatically. We separate facts from noise, tighten the paper trail, and present structured options—so disputes don’t become permanent stalling tactics.
